伊達氏 | Date

The Date Clan starts the campaign in the north-east corner of the map, in the wealthy province of Iwate. It is close to a trade node, and it is isolated from most other clans, giving it a safe starting position. It is very large, making it difficult to invade. The regions in northern Japan have fertile soil and are generally quite wealthy, and Iwate is no exception. However, the only enemy the Date Clan initially has, the Mogami Clan to the west, also has a large region that is difficult to invade. Trying to take advantage of the remaining trade nodes (all of which are in south-west Japan) in the early game is a largely futile af fa ir it would take considerable time and effort to send ships to the other side of the map, let alone to protect them from pirates or hostile clans. The Date Clan's family is strong. The daimyo is very young but has already fathered sons, and the secondary general is his brother, with another brother close to coming of a ge.
