Detailed explanation-1: -A Samurai was a member of the traditional landed gentry and warrior caste of Feudal Japan. A Shogun was a Daimyo, or Samurai lord, who had been formally appointed by the graces of the Emperor of Japan himself.
Detailed explanation-2: -A daimyo was a feudal lord in shogunal Japan from the 12th century to the 19th century. The daimyos were large landowners and vassals of the shogun. Each daimyo hired an army of samurai warriors to protect his family’s lives and property.
Detailed explanation-3: -Use vassal when referring to a servant, or anyone wholly dependent on another, or to describe a place that is controlled by one that is more powerful. For example, during World War II, Poland was a vassal of Germany.
Detailed explanation-4: -Feudalism in 12th-century England was among the better structured and established systems in Europe at the time. The king was the absolute “owner” of land in the feudal system, and all nobles, knights, and other tenants, termed vassals, merely “held” land from the king, who was thus at the top of the feudal pyramid.
