This episode of Legacy explores the transformation of the Samurai from provincial land enforcers to the ultimate wielders of power in medieval Japan. Peter and Afua trace the rise of this iconic warrior class through centuries of climate instability, religious shifts, and the brutal clan warfare that forever sidelined the Imperial court.
