I like Squibeel's idea in the previous article...make an index for the tutorials. Hmm..only this time it's more about history and culture, as supposed to eRep tutorials.

Hmm...(thinking about how I might want to make an index)

"Kanto comes into Tokugawa Ieyasu's ruling in 1590, the year in which he surrendered to Toyotomi Hideyoshi (豊臣 秀吉), a daimyo who was more powerful than him"

I think this is not correct, Tokugawa was at war with Hideyoshi a few years before that.

Tokugawa with Oda Nobunaga's eldest son, Nobukatsu were at war with Hideyoshi but they were defeated. A peace was made after that, and subsequently, Tokugawa became his vassal.

In 1590, Tokugawa aided Hideyoshi to defeat the Hojo who was the daimyo in the Kanto area. Hideyoshi made a deal with Tokugawa after the victory, He would give Tokugawa some of the regions captured in exchange of Tokugawa's original region.

Long live Kinki/Kansai!!!~

Freedom for Kanto and Japan !!!

It's actually not MeiFawAn, I have to read/study and take test on it in the english language. it's quite nice

Nice article, I didn't know that the capital would be the first RW won...

@roland_up

Ah, so there is a few years between Tokugawa deciding to follow Hideyoshi and Tokugawa's entering of Kanto? I see..thanks.

@Hakaisha

Yep. In the case in which a country is wiped, the first region liberated becomes the new capital.

中譯來了。

This article is about the history of one of the regions of Japan, Kanto. In the eWorld, Kanto is where the capital of eJapan was. Has anybody ever looked at the map, and wondered why the capitals are located at where they are? You know, like, why was our capital Kanto, not somewhere else, like Kinki, Hokkaido, or Kyushu?

本文旨在介紹日本區域之一─關東的歷史。
在e世界裡，關東是e日本首都的所在地。
有沒人曾經猜想過，為什麼首都會坐落在此。
正如你所知的，為什麼我們的首都會在關東，而不是其他地方，像近畿、北海道，或是九州。

Well, for eJapan, the reason why our capital was at Kanto was probably because, Kanto is where the capital of RL Japan, Tokyo, is located at; the map above also demonstrated this, showing Tokyo in the Kanto region.

好，對日本來說，關東成為我國首都大概是因為現實世界的日本首都東京就位於關東。
上面的地圖也證實這一點，顯示東京就位於關東這個區域。

Now the next question: why is Tokyo the capital of RL Japan?

現在，下個問題是：為什麼東京是現實世界的日本首都。

With a bit of research, I have identified this person as the one who, per say, was responsible for creating the historical reason that made Tokyo the capital of modern Japan:

我個人做了一點研究之後，我確認一個人要為建立東京成為現代日本的首都負責。

Tokugawa Ieyasu (徳川 家康, 1543 – 1616)

Tokugawa Ieyasu and his family line had ruled Japan for 264 years, throughout the years of 1603 to 1867, and Tokyo (called Edo at the time) was where Ieyasu established his government at. The 264 years of ruling of the Tokugawa family from Edo(=Tokyo) had made it the political and cultural center of Japan, and so the modern Japan pretty much just have Tokyo as the capital as the continuation of what Tokugawa Ieyasu have established of. (Side note: even through Edo(=Tokyo) was the political center, the emperor stayed in Kyoto, former capital of Japan before the Tokugawa family comes to rule, until 1869)

德川家康及其家族從西元1603年到1867年，統治了日本264年。
而東京（當時稱為江戶）是德川家建立政府的地點。
在德川家位於江戶（東京）的統治下，將其建立成日本的政治與文化中心，而因此現代日本幾乎延續了將德川家建立的東京當成首都。
（附註說明：即使江戶（東京）是政治中心，日本天皇仍留在在德川統治前的首都京都，直到西元1869年為止）

OK, so now we know that Tokyo is the capital of RL Japan because Tokugawa Ieyasu had made it the political center. The next question is, why?

好啦，那現在我們知道東京成為現實世界中的日本首都是因為德川家康把它當成政治中心。
那下個問題是：為什麼？

Kanto comes into Tokugawa Ieyasu's ruling in 1590, the year in which he surrendered to Toyotomi Hideyoshi (豊臣 秀吉), a daimyo who was more powerful than him. Upon this surrendering, Hideyoshi gave Ieyasu Kanto as a gift, but took away the regions that Ieyasu used to rule. For Ieyasu, he had no choice but to try to establish a new foundation in Kanto, and he choose Edo(=Tokyo) to be that central base. As he wasn't the most powerful Daimyo, the previous capital of Japan (Kyoko) was naturally not in his hand, and so he had to establish his base somewhere else - which, when Ieyasu finally comes to ruling, caused the capital of Japan to change to Edo(=Tokyo).

關東受到德川家康的統治始於西元1590年，該年他臣服於豐臣秀吉，豐臣是一個實力遠大於他的大名（譯註：諸侯）。
豐臣秀吉將關東當成禮物贈送給德川家康，但是奪走他原有的領地。
對德川家康來說，他沒有選擇，只好盡力把關東建立成為他的新基礎，而他選擇了把江戶（東京）當成是核心基地。
由於他不是最有實力的大名，日本原來的首都京都自然也不是由他控制，所以他必須在別的地方建立一個新的基地，於是在德川家康最後終於統治了日本，也導致了日本的首都轉移到了江戶（東京）。

So, basically - Hideyoshi kicked Ieyasu out of his old home, so Ieyasu needed a new place, and he picked Edo(=Tokyo). After that, Hideyoshi died and Ieyasu came to power, ruled Japan, and Edo(=Tokyo) stayed as the capital since then.

所以囉，基本上來說，豐臣秀吉把德川家康從他的老巢踢走，所以德川需要一個新的根據地，然後他選了江戶（東京）。
在這之後，豐臣秀吉去世而德川變得有實力而統治了日本，江戶（東京）就變成了首都，直到現在。

That is why Tokyo is the capital of RL Japan, and why Kanto was the capital of eJapan. The location of eJapan capital may change in the future, depending on where the first successful resistant war occur on the day in which eJapan finally gets back on the map.

這就是東京會成為現實世界的日本首都以及關東成為在e日本首都的原因。
或許未來e日本首都的位置會改變，這得看第一個成功起義戰使得e日本終於回到世界地圖的時候。

Thank you for reading this history with me!

感謝你和我一起閱讀這段歷史。
