In this episode of our Introduction to Japanese History series, we look at the 15th century and the build up to the Onin war, and what would ultimately lead to the age of the country at war - the Sengoku period.

Hello from the Netherlands.
I found this podcast a few months ago, and I'm doing catch-up on your Japanese history podcasts.
In this one (EP20) you mention you probably have one female listener. Well that would be me.
I expect in the next 50-or-so podcasts you have found more female listeners, can't tell, I'll know when I get there.
I'm studying Japanese language as a hobby and am interested in history and culture. Your summary of the entire history of Japan is awesome, so I want to thank you for doing that.
Time permitting, please take a look at my blog. I have summarised several of your podcasts.
Thanks guys!
