Japan's national flag is called Hinomaru, which comes from the Japanese word "Sun Maru", which literally means "Sun Circle". It is uncertain when the symbol of the sun circle was first used on flags and slogans. However, in the 12th century, samurai appeared. In the struggle for power between Minamoto and Taira, samurai liked to draw the sun circle on a folding fan (called gunsen in Japanese). During the Warring States Period in Japan in the 15th and 16th centuries, many military figures fought for spheres of influence, and the symbol of the sun flag was widely used as a military emblem.
