Can you find what it mean ?

It's still ongoing but i can't resist, AH have so many good TL.
So feel free to write whatever comes into your head

My first thought was a Byzantine Japan.

Maybe the eastern roman empire went crazy and expanded through arabia,
then annexed japan and made them a colony.

No matter how i look at it i can only think of something to do with Byzantium. :D
 
Nope :D
Just look at the Kamon (good clue ;))

The Kamon is the mon of the Matsudaira clan and used as a crest during the Tokugawa shogunate, but you said it was not Japanese :confused:

Is this a TL where a Matsudaira prince/princess is married into the Byzantine family?

It's not a Byzantine Mongolian TL is it?
 
Right. And i said No to Byzantine Japan ? never for japanese relations ;)

So a Byzantine Empire influenced by Japanese code of War and Justice, :cool: Good Bye Dark Ages - Hello Golden Age.

Is it any particular Prince/Princess?

How do the Muslim Turks take that their neighbours now have connections in the Far East?

Yup its a particular princess. And Muslim have nothing to say since they have lost Egypt during the 14Th Century ;)
 
So, Byzantium has access to the Red Sea. Colombus discovers the Americas as per otl. Byzantium sets out in search of an eastern route to America and opens up trade routes with India and the far east, including Japan.
That's a rough guess, I don't know enough to provide any more details.
 
Byzantium stronk, Zheng He keeps sailing around the Indian Ocean, opens up relations with Byzantium, Byzantium becomes TTL Portugal, dots the Indian Ocean coast with tradings posts, eventually discovers Japan and ships culture back to Byzantine homeland?

I do not have so many more details to be either supplied because this part of the TL is still under construction (at present the TL is more or less solid until 1290). But yes in the beginning of 15th century the Byzantine have access to Red Sea and meet the last expedition of Zheng He (1430-1433) what brings them to get in touch with Japan one or two decades (maximum five) before Tanegashima

Globally Correct. But not only culture ;)
 
More data. Just for information she's the great-granddaughter of Hidetada Tokugawa and her grandmother was Senhime Tokugawa :D (the image is an official illustration of the video game Ikkitousen Xtrem Xecutor)

Can a woman start a dynasty under her name? Usually a dynasty dies with her and a new dynasty is born under her husband's name in the form of their son.
For example:
When Robert I of Scotland from the house of Bruce, the dynasty died when his oldest daughter gave him his only male heir Prince Robert of Stewart.
When Victoria I of Great Britain, died, so did the British branch of the House of Hanover leading to the short lived *of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.
