The Sengoku Jidai (Aeng. 'Warring States period') is the period in Oyashimane history in which civil wars and social upheavals took place almost continuously from the 1450s-1620s. The period was characterized by the overthrow of a superior power by a subordinate one. During this period, the traditional master-servant relationship between the lord and his vassals broke down, with the vassals eliminating the lord, internal clan and vassal conflicts over leadership of the lord's family, and frequent rebellion and puppetry by branch families against the lord's family. These events sometimes led to the rise of {{wp|samurai}} to the rank of {{wp|sengoku daimyo}}. It was also marked by the loosening of {{wp|samurai culture}}, with people born into other social strata sometimes making a name for themselves as warriors and thus becoming samurai.
