Kanto-system

The Kanto-system is a star-system of the New Empire of Japan. The system contains seven planets: Tokyo, Chiba, Gunma, Ibaraki, Kanagawa, Saitama and Tochigi.

History
The system is the seat of political power of the New Empire of Japan and the Genji-clan that rule of the Sub-sector. The planet had importance at first as the home of the Hojo-clan that governed on behalf of the Tenno before the Sengoku Wars, and again after the wars as the seat of power of the Tokugawa-clan. It eventually gained permanent importance when the Genji-clan relocated to Tokyo as the Genji Restoration began.

Commodore Perry stationed his fleet in orbit above Kanagawa when confronting the governate to submit to the Ecclesiarchy.

Since the rise of the Tokogawa and the Genji Restoration later on, it not only became the centre of modernisation but also educational, industrial and culture. Most worlds evovled from Agri-world to Imperial worlds but some agricultural capabilities are left.

Tokyo
Tokyo is the capital and seat of power of the Genji-clan and the government since relocation from Kyoto. Originally a backwater Imperial world, the planet saw rapid transformation into an Industrial world where much of the population live in metropolitan hives. The change to Imperialisation began from this planet as well.

Kanagawa
Kanagawa was home to the once-poweful Hojo clan, who ruled a Shogunate governing on behalf of the Tenno. Multiple Imperial shrines exist in their former capital, Kamakura.

Modern Kanagawa is an industrial world, it's hives second largest to Tokyo. The Imperial Japanese Navy has its headquarters in Yokosuka.
