===First imperial period===
The medieval period in Oyashima spanned from the 10th century to the [[Oyashima#Sengoku Jidai|Sengoku Jidai]] in the 1450s. It was characterized by the end of the dominance of the nomadic ancestors of the Danehonger peoples and their lifestyle and the rise of the ethnically Mutsutorine kingdoms and empires.

====Shang colony====
Upon arrival of the [[Daxia|Emperor Cao Zhi’s]] trade navy in [[697]] a colony was established that lasted until [[755]]. The area around the colonial port of Xiwan was quickly developed into the [[Daxia|Shang]] court and a few thousand Shangese residents called the place home. There was an intentional and pervasive breeding effort by the Shang, importing only men and requiring that each man take three native wives and to proliferate their line abundantly. This led to a massive boom that required a huge investment in infrastructure. A second city was built for some of these large families and a series of roads were built between the two. When the boys were old enough to take wives they continued the practice of their fathers, whoever a massive job shortage led to lower tax revenues as the economic activity of the colony was needed internally to feed the inhabitants. This and the great distance led to the abandonment of the colonial effort of the Shang Imperial court in [[755]] meant that the Shangese needed to set their own path. Establishing massive farming operations the wealthier settlers established a hierarchical system like the one in [[Daxia|Shang]]. The Xiwanese as they started to refer to themselves, expanded throughout modern day Oyashima bringing with them their language, their culture, and their farming practices. In [[884]], Daimyo Iwakura Matsumori overthrew his shogun and established the Matsumori imperial dynasty. His house would rule for 300 years and preside over the formation of Matsutorine culture.

Distant enough from their Shangese colonial neighbors to the south and deeply inbreed with the Mongolic natives, the Matsumori court established a unique cultural and ethnic identity. It was in this period that the {{wpl|Japanese language|Mututori language}} became distinct from the {{wpl|Chinese language|Daxian language}}. Their rule of the Kita-Hanto, (Eng: Northern Peninsula) was absolute. They established sedentary farming communities further and further east. By the 1160s they controlled the whole of the Kita-Hanto and had abolished the nomadic lifestyle.
