Nagasaki - A Fortress of God

Father valagnano's presence as the senior most jesuit asia was perfect timing in regard to this offer. He would cede control of nagasaki to the jesuits outright and functionally make them territorial lords of their own omura. The city administration would be handled by specially appointed lay christians who were nominally independent. In practice, they followed the orders of gaspar coelho and the other local jesuits. And so it was that some time before the fall of 15 80, the precise dating, thanks to uneven records, is a little unclear, nagasaki became an official territorial enclave of the jesuit order.
