		To maintain a balance between these two big powers, Ieyasu was taken as a hostage to the Imagawa family at the age of six, but while traveling to Sumpu Castle, he was kidnapped by the Oda forces.

	Tokugawa Ieyasu
		The Takeda occupied Suruga and it may be that Ieyasu regretted his dealings with Shingen, for even before Shingen had taken Sumpu, Ieyasu was sheltering Ujizane and promising to restore his lands to him.
		Retreating to Sumpu in Suruga province, he supervised the expansion of Chiyoda (Edo) Castle and the expansion of the surrounding town over the next few years, and conducted diplomatic business with the Dutch (1609) and Spanish, with whom he distanced Japan.
		More then anything else, though, Tokugawa Ieyasu was a man who seemed to have a sweeping vision and the ability to live his life as a master of Go might win a game-slowly but steadily, and with no doubt in the outcome.

	Japan for Sustainability(JFS) - Towerd a Century of Japanese Value
		Ieyasu's Sumpu Castle and the Sengen Shrine built by the third Tokugawa shogun Iemitsu were massive undertakings that drew the best woodworkers, carvers and lacquer artisans from all over Japan, many of whom remained in Sumpu (today known as Shizuoka City) for the rest of their lives.
		This is what stimulated the sashimono joinery craft that is the special pride of Sumpu, which in turn gave rise to a variety of crafts and industries including furniture, butsudan altars, built-in furniture, geta wooden sandals and even pianos.

		In 1603 the powerless but prestigious Imperial court, which over the years had dutifully assigned Ieyasu titles that reflected his growing power, appointed him shogun (generalissimo), thereby acknowledging that this most powerful daimyo in Japan was the man officially authorized to keep the peace in the emperor's name.
