Toyotomi Hideyoshi recognized as the second "Great Unifier" of Japan, with his tale being  of the most incredible tales in japanese history. It saw him rise from a peasant to become the most powerful man in Japan, not only during a period of everlasting war, but also deep rooted classism.

Initially serving as a retainer to the formidable lord Oda Nobunaga, and climbing through the ranks, from the gutter to the opulent war rooms of Nobunaga, hideyoshi was recognised as a military genius despite his peasant background. After his lord Nobunaga's assassination, Hideyoshi would unify Japan by the sword completing his fallen masters wish. Effectively bringing the turbulent Sengoku period to a close. By the mid-1580s, he had established himself as the de facto leader of Japan, holding the prestigious titles of daijō-daijin or chancellor of the realm and kampaku the imperial regent. He further demonstrated his military ambition by launching the Japanese invasions of Korea, known as the Imjin War, deploying over 300,000 men in these campaigns. He become known as the taiko meaning the retired imperial regent although retained absolute power. Despite his charm, intelligence, and strategic brilliance, Hideyoshi could also be ruthlessly calculating. He orchestrated several massacres, including one against his own family, resulting in the deaths of many innocent women and children. Toyotomi Hideyoshi went by many names during his life, but for the purpose of the video I will refer to him as hideyoshi.

Born nameless and with no samurai roots, he became the most powerful man in Japan. This is his story.
