High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Firearms were introduced to Japan in the 13th century, but saw little use. European firearms were introduced in 1543, and intense development followed, with strong local manufacture during the period of conflicts of the late 16th century. Japan then almost completely abandoned the further development and military use of firearms during a period of seclusion known as sakoku. The usage of firearms in Japan would start again after 1854 with the resumption of contacts with the West and the accumulation of conflicts from that period.
