It's not as if we're talking about an isolated tribe of head-hunters complete with stone spearheads ...
Well, Magna Mundi has a lot of new content for Asian nations, particularly for Japan. The mod is certainly very difficult, but if you're looking for a more historical method of playing Japan, that mod is an option.
