Medieval Japan: 600 - 1450 Regional and interregional interactions

During the medieval period in Japan, regional and interregional interactions typically occurred in the form of trade, warfare, and the exchange of cultural ideas.

One example of regional interaction was the trade of crops, crafts, and other goods that occurred between local regions.

Interregional interactions were typically limited to the nobility of different regions.

The most prominent example of interregional interaction was the expansion of the Japanese Empire, which brought the country into contact with several neighboring nations, including China and Korea.

Through interregional interactions, Japan was able to learn new technologies, such as the Chinese system of writing, known as kanji.

The spread of Buddhism from China to Japan was another example of interregional interaction.

During this period, Japan also began to engage in trading with European nations, such as Portugal and the Netherlands.
