Oda Nobunaga - The Innovator Who Changed the Sengoku Era

Oda Nobunaga is known as an outstanding daimyo who led 16th century Japan towards unification. His innovative strategies and foresight overturned the conventional wisdom of the time and had a profound impact on Japanese history.

One of the revolutionary tactics introduced by Nobunaga was the mass adoption of firearms. He actively utilized this new weapon, which had just been introduced by the Portuguese, ahead of other daimyo, drastically changing traditional combat methods. In the economic sphere, he also implemented progressive policies, such as the "rakuichi rakuza" (free markets and open guilds) policy. This stimulated commerce and laid the foundation for economic development.

Furthermore, Nobunaga worked to suppress Buddhist influence. He took a hardline stance against the powerful religious institutions of the time, symbolized by his burning of the Enryaku-ji temple on Mount Hiei. This action is etched in history as symbolizing a break from the medieval order.

Nobunaga's innovations spanned politics, military, and economics, forming the basis for the subsequent unification of Japan by Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu. His foresight and bold reforms truly became the driving force that led Japan from the medieval to the early modern period.
