Terror From the Feast Chapter 119

In fact, the Japanese in Hokkaido are not the same ethnic group as the Japanese in the traditional sense.

They are called Ainu people, and their existence witnessed Japan's conquest and rule of Hokkaido.

During the Kamakura Shogunate period from the 12th to the 14th century AD, the Japanese called Hokkaido Ezo and the local indigenous people were called Ezo, which are today's Ainu people.

During this period, some Japanese living in Honshu entered Ezo to reclaim land and run businesses. These actions impacted the traditional lifestyle of the Ainu people who relied on fishing and hunting for a living, and caused their disgust and dissatisfaction.

As more and more Japanese entered Hokkaido, the conflict between the Ainu and the Japanese became increasingly intensified, finally leading to open confrontation in 1457, causing fierce ethnic conflict.
