[edit] Translation

I have done what I can to translate the relevant bits from the Japanese Wikipedia article, and to extrapolate the rest from my own knowledge of the period and from a few other Wikipedia articles, both English and Japanese, on related subjects. The main content still needs a lot of work, I would imagine, both in terms of general phrasing and formatting, and in terms of someone with expert knowledge of the subject reorganizing it to express most succinctly and directly the most important elements.

As it stands now, this is more or less just a translation, and a starting point. Please don't hurt me for producing something so half-baked. ^_^ LordAmeth 11:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
