Description

During Japan’s Edo period, many samurai received stipends measured in koku—a unit based on rice. But rice prices changed while their stipends often remained fixed. After converting rice into money, many lower-ranking samurai struggled with expenses and fell into debt. Two swords. Empty wallet. #History #Samurai #JapaneseHistory #historyshorts #history #historical #historyfacts #historicalfacts #didyouknow #historybuff
