Just a thought exercise, really. One of the things I developed for my ASB Leygurian World was a European conquest of Japan. In my setting, the Leygurians took over the title of Shogun while retaining the native emperor - thus establishing a foreign 'clan' under the Leygurian royal family.

Obviously this exists in an ASB setting with no bearing on OTL, but could something similar have happened in the real world? Could France, Britain, even the USA, have done something like this?
