During it's rapid industrialization, the empire was struggling to find its own identity. As it saw its age old culture being replaced by more civilized norms. The empire is quite unique in the respect that it still retains many traditional customs from it's bygone days, even as a civilized nation. It's warrior creed reflects the hard working mentality of the people and society. Being the first nation in its region to industrialize, it automatically became the most powerful nation within it's region, and soon, occupied some of the surrounding territories and assimilated them into the Oyashiman empire. As an island nation, formed by one main island(s), along with various smaller islands, the sea is it's main frontier. Which is why the Empire of Oyashima needed to establish a powerful shipbuilding industry, since it's the lifeline of the empire. Which is also why it has an equally powerful navy in order to protect and enforce its borders and interests. Assembling arguably the largest and most powerful naval force in history. Even though they are highly industrialized, they are still just opening up to the rest of the world. The nation that has been occupied by the Oyashins are content with their occupiers. While other islands had been made official provinces of the empire and its people, citizens of the empire. There is still some things left to do in order to truly make the non Oyashin-people feel welcome within the empire. The military is gearing up for an expansion in order to obtain more resources to fuel and expand the empire's industries. But also i na quest to be recognized and treated as an equal.
