Domains is mainly classified into three types, as follows.
The first is Shinpan(親藩) or Relative Domains.
The Relative Domains are the domains that were being ruled in branch family of the Shogun family. The Relative Domains are most loyal to the shogunate.

The second is Fudai(譜代) or Loyal Domains.
The Loyal Domains is the domains which were being ruled by the vassal's offsprings who behaved faithfully to the first shogun. The Loyal Domains are the most loyal to the shogunate after the Relative Domains.

The third is Tozama(外様) or Outsider Domains.
The Outsider Domains mean the Domains who were late to give obedience to the Shogunate. Some of them were former enemies to the first Shogun. The Outsider Domains are not most loyal to the shogunate.

Dunno about Japan, but I rather feel we're more in the Weimar republic. Weak, corrupt governments, the left and right both radicalizing and practically fighting running street battles with each other.
Then there's the unstable and collapsing economy. So yeah... Weimar Republic, I'd say. And we're going to get either a Thalmann or a Hitler.

I think about the increasing political polarization in the US and wonder if it will ever turn to serious violence.
But then I remember that most of us are too fat and lazy to do that, so I stop worrying about it.
