From 1639 – 1858 Japan Closed Itself Off
from the Rest of the World
1. Why? Catholic missionaries from Europe began to
convert many Japanese to Christianity. This
threatened the Emperor’s control over Japan.
Christians would listen to the Pope (in Vatican
City / Rome) instead of the Emperor.
2. Exception = 2 Dutch ships per year were allowed into
Nagasaki harbor (Great Ships).
3. Results? Japan fell behind in technology and military
capability and was in danger of being conquered.
Between 1750 – 1850, many European nations
industrialized. This resulted in rapid
modernization and great technological
improvement in the military.

1100s – 1800s = Japanese Feudal Era
During this time, there was no central government.
Shoguns ruled very large areas of land.
Daimyo were the lords that controlled landed estates
and each had an army of many samurai.
The samurai were the soldiers who spent their lives
training for war, mostly to defend the daimyo’s land.
If the Emperor needed soldiers to defend Japan, he had
to ask the daimyo or shoguns to send samurai to fight.
If they did not like the Emperor, they could refuse to
send soldiers.
This was a very dangerous system for Japan.

The Bushido Code1. Death before dishonor!
Surrender is not an option for a samurai.
It dishonors you, your family, the
emperor, and Japan.
Good samurai warriors could die on the
battlefield or commit ritual suicide. Either
would result in going to NIRVANA
(Buddhist heaven).
Japanese often gave their POWs an
opportunity to commit suicide. This was
NOT acceptable for Christians.

The Bushido Code2. No concern for pain or physical
discomfort!
Samurai prided himself on supremacy of
mind over body.
The samurai had the option of commiting
ritual suicide, known as seppuku or hara
kiri. This was suicide by
disembowelment.
![Page 11: Japanese Fighting Mentality & The Bushido Code](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012102/6169ff3511a7b741a34dad51/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Bushido Sword
Series
(tanto seppuku
knife on the right)
![Page 12: Japanese Fighting Mentality & The Bushido Code](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012102/6169ff3511a7b741a34dad51/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

This is a katana seppuku knife. A samurai took
very good care of his swords to keep them ready for
war. Careless treatment of a samurai’s sword was a
serious offense which could bring a fight to death.
Katana knives were tested by piling dead bodies on
top of one another and seeing how many bodies you
could cut through in one thrust. The result was
engraved on the knife - - “3 body knife.”
![Page 13: Japanese Fighting Mentality & The Bushido Code](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012102/6169ff3511a7b741a34dad51/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Step 1 was to kneel and place both hands on the hilt of
the katana or tanto sword. Place the blade on the
abdomen and then shove it straight in.
![Page 14: Japanese Fighting Mentality & The Bushido Code](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012102/6169ff3511a7b741a34dad51/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Step 2, slide the blade from side to side making sure to
cut major organs and intestines. This was a slow and
painful way to die. A samurai should be able to put
mind over body!

The samurai arranged
for another person to
finish him off through
decapitation. It took too
long to die otherwise.
The Kaishaku
(assistant) stands
behind a warrior who
prepares for seppeku
(ritual suicide).

The Bushido Code3. Loyalty!
The samurai was to be totally loyal to the
emperor, who was a god on earth. The
emperor was a direct descendant of the
Japanese sun goddess, AMATERASU!

Japan hoped to conquer:
Philippines, Malaya, Burma, New
Guinea, Bismarck Archipelago,
Marshall Islands, and the Gilbert
Islands. This empire would
guarantee Japan oil, tin, rubber,
and a perimeter of bases from
which to defend their empire.

Dec. 22, 1941, the main
Japanese landing forces
attacked the eastern
shore of Lingayen Gulf
and on Dec. 24th,
attacked Lamon Bay.
The Japanese 14th Army,
under Lt. General
Masaharu Homma, had
50,000 men to attack an
American & Filipino
force that was twice as
large, but consisted
mostly of newly
inducted, untrained, and
unequipped Filipinos.

MacArthur tried to defend
Lingayen beaches for 2 days
and then ** changed strategy
back to War Plan Orange - -
retreat into the Bataan
Peninsula and hold there for
6 months until they could be
reinforced. This would allow
them to defend Manila
harbor.
** Now stockpiling of food,
munitions, and medical
supplies was impossible
since they were left at
Lingayen Gulf!!

Dec. 24th – Jan. 8th, 1942 - -

attack them either.
