  Republic of Ezo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Republic of Ezo (蝦夷共和国 Ezo Kyōwakoku) was a short-lived breakaway state of Japan on the island now known as Hokkaido.
After the defeat of the forces of the Tokugawa Shogunate in the Boshin War (1868–1869), a part of the Shogun's navy led by Admiral Enomoto Takeaki fled to the northern island of Ezo, together with several thousand soldiers and a handful of French military advisors and their leader, Jules Brunet.
The Imperial forces progressed swiftly and won the Naval Battle of Hakodate, until the fortress of Goryokaku was surrounded with 800 remaining men.

As she stirs a big pot of vegetable stew you realize this is truly home-style cooking, a refreshing break from most restaurant food which feels more and more institutionalized with each passing year, each passing trend.
At Ezo, the feeling is that you are eating in their home and the food is being cooked just for you.
All the dishes served at Ezo appear to be renditions of the same foods: chicken, vegetable stew, lentils, and tender, delicious homemade flatbread.

Ezo comes from France, and consists of a range of beautifully presented high fidelity components which - if the Aria is typical - are constructed internally to standards closer to the high end than most.
Arguably the most distinctive sounding amplifier in the test, the Ezo Aria is a demanding amplifier on audition that stakes a strong claim after some of the less satisfactory models in this group.
Interesting, even arresting, as it sometimes sounds, the Ezo Aria is far too intrusive, far too ready to place its own gloss on the music to be a credible and transparent amplifier.

 Saburo Kato Biography
The latter had been lovingly cultivated by a certain group of bonsai artists since the late nineteenth century, but they were not fully recognized for their potential until around the time of the Great War when many trees from the north were being brought into Honshu, the main island of Japan.
Ezo spruce would not grow vigorously because of the impeded development of their roots and would continue to survive and grow a little because of some small fine roots growing in the upper part of the layer of sphagnum moss.
On November 3, 1985 Saburō Katō was awarded the Ranjuhosho decoration, the Prime Minister's Medal of honor for his exemplary contributions to the development of culture or international goodwill, the promoting of bonsai as an art form.

Most Japanese bands of the eighties took their cue from Loudness, playing a distinctive brand of European-influenced traditional metal.
EZO, on the other hand, sounded like they grew up in Los Angeles, a city they came to call home in 1984 after recording two albums under the name Flatbacker (not reviewed here, but by several accounts these two albums are heavier and less mainstream than the EZO albums).
The band was discovered by none other than Gene Simmons, who eventually produced the self-titled album.

At the end of the 12th century, settlers from Honshu, called "Wajin," came to the southern part of Hokkaido and began a colony.
Because of this, the Tokugawa shogunate took control of Ezo directly and undertook investigation of resources and the mapping of the region.

However, DeLiberty predicted that by 2008, some 65% to 70% of all steel cans will be using EZO ends, and he noted that this was the "first improvement in metal cans driven by convenience," as opposed to safety and quality.
