Against Wokou Frontline
SteamAbout Against Wokou Frontline
<u>Historical Background</u>
From 1552 to 1565 during the Ming Dynasty's Jiajing era, Japan was entrenched in the civil war–ridden Sengoku (Warring States) period. This prolonged conflict created a vast number of masterless samurai (rōnin) and drove local daimyō (feudal lords) to seek wealth by sponsoring coastal raids. This armed force merged with the smuggling networks flourishing along China's southeastern coast—a direct result of the Ming court's rigid maritime prohibition policies. Together, these factors culminated in the severe Wokou (Japanese pirate) crises that plagued the Jiajing reign.
