Best Answer

The top ruler was the emperor. His right hand men were the shoguns, which each looked after a region. The daimyo were the administrators under the shogun. The role of emperor was removed from office with a major civil revolution. The top shogun took this position and led Japan, until another revolution reinstated the emperor.
