Christmas in Japan has come in and out of favor over the centuries. The holiday first found its way to the islands when Christianity was introduced in 1549. However, in 1614 it was banned by the shogunate along with all other Christian traditions. Christmas once again found its way into the culture in the 1870s as part of the religious freedom movement during the Meiji Restoration, but again faded out during WWII. After the war, Christmas was reintroduced, gaining widespread acceptance with the introduction of the Christmas cake and Colonel Sanders.

Tokugawa Japan spanned the years 1600-1868. Thus the Tokugawa era began at the same time European colonists came to what would later be the United States, and ended just after the American Civil War. For Japan, the Tokugawa era brought 250 years of peace and order, a long-term stability that fostered great changes in Japanese society, readying it for entering the modern era. Japan's rapid modernization in the late nineteenth century the so-called Meiji era  is well known. Less well known are the crucial preparatory steps that were taken in the Tokugawa period.
