What was the Edo period like? What if you lived then?
Since I'm tall, blond, and blue-eyed I'd be mistaken for a Dutchman and confined to the island of Dejima where all foreign (mostly Dutch) visitors were required to stay while in Japan. I'd have to learn Dutch, but at least I'd have access to Japanese prostitutes.
Still shit but an unimaginable upgrade compared to everything that came before.Up until Tokugawa Ieyasu prohibited samurai to kill peasants because of bullshit minor inconveniences, the life of the average japanese peasant was a 24/7 terror. Toiling away in the fields until your back broke or some cruel savage decided to test his new sword on you which he could do without consequence.
