Daimyo
Explanation:
During the Tokugawa Shogunate, the shogun was effectively the ruler of Japan. This gave shogun enormous power and authority. Just below the shogun, we find the daimyo. The daimyo was a feudal lord who owned large amounts of land. They were considered vassals of the shogun, and usually employed large armies of samurai to protect themselves and their property. Daimyo and shogun were extremely powerful until the early Meiji period.
They began to kidnap people from the west coast of Africa.The Spanish took the first African captives to the Americas from Europe as early as 1503, and by 1518 the first captives were shipped directly from Africa to America.

Beginning with the battle of Orleans, Joan of Arc entered the Burgundian territory disguised as a male. She then met the future King Charles and made a good impression by him. She was said to be the inspiration of a collapsing France, so the court provided her with troops and support. She revived the lost hope of France, winning battles one after another. Joan carried her banner in battle and is said to have never killed anyone. However in the year 1430, she was later captured at Compiegne by Lionel de Wandomme. She was imprisoned at Beaurevoir castle and was later transferred to a keep Rouen. Joan was trialed by pro-Anglo clerics and was declared as heretic and a witch. She was executed by burning in the same year 1430.
