When we think of samurai, we think of swords and battles. But some of Japan's greatest warriors were also its greatest architects. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the castle-building genius of Katō Kiyomasa, the daimyō who designed Hagi Castle, Kumamoto Castle, and Nagoya Castle in Hizen. They discuss how Kiyomasa's fortifications blended Korean siege tactics learned during the Imjin War, Jesuit engineering influences, and native Japanese carpentry to create defenses that withstood centuries. They also examine the political calculus behind castle placement in the early Edo period, and how Kiyomasa's alliance with Tokugawa Ieyasu secured his domain. Along the way, they compare his approach to European fortress design, including the trace Italienne and the work of Vauban. A must for anyone who thinks samurai history is just about battlefield glory. #KatōKiyomasa #KumamotoCastle #HagiCastle #NagoyaCastle #samurai #feudalJapan #castlebuilding #ImjinWar #TokugawaIeyasu #EdoPeriod #fortification #traceItalienne #Vauban #daimyō #JapaneseHistory #militaryarchitecture #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
