Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive overview of three kingdoms that existed beyond the seas from Japan from the perspective of a Japanese author during the 18th century. It begins with a detailed introduction to the main geographical features of these distant realms. The first of these kingdoms examined is Korea, known as TchosÅn by the Japanese. The author gives a detailed account of the country's history, including its foundation myth, its division into three kingdoms and its eventual unification under the Silla dynasty. The book includes a rare map of the Eight Provinces of Korea, along with a table of distances between major cities. The second kingdom examined is the Ryukyu Kingdom, known as the Kingdom of Loochoo to the Japanese. The author describes the political structure of the kingdom, and gives an account of the history of its trade relations with Japan. The third kingdom examined is the Kingdom of Ezo, or Yezo, which refers to the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. The author describes the indigenous Ainu people who inhabited the island, their culture, and their relations with the Japanese. The author concludes with a discussion of the importance of geographical knowledge for governance and military strategy, emphasizing the need for rulers to be aware of the world beyond their own borders. This book offers a glimpse into the geopolitical understanding of East Asia in the 18th century, and sheds light on the complex interactions between the different kingdoms and peoples of the region.
