Throughout different times in history the Okinawans have had different weapons bans, issued against them. But the book I am thinking of is in storeage at the moment will all my other stuff. The basic idea was that long before the Japanese invasions China threaten to invade Okinawa. The Okinawans convinced the Chinese it would be a bloody waste of Chinese soilders, so the Chinese tried to slowly intigrate the Okinawans. A soft invasion was used instead and the Okinawan King issued a weapons ban but only for location where Chinese diplomats were located and only during the times they were there not the entire country, and also set-up "education centers" to influence the Okinawans with Chinese Ideas and turn Okinawa into an extention of Chinese Teritory. The exact details I can't give but thats because I don't have the history book I'm quoting from. | Well, until you get the book, and reference it here, I think it maybe a moot point of one that you may have mis-read. IMHO
