A Jesuit Seminary increases the rate of conversion to Christianity, as well as improving economic growth, the happiness of Christian populace in it's province, replenishment, and mastery of the arts. it also enables a besieged force in the same castle or town to hold out longer against their attackers. The Society of Jesus, commonly called the Jesuits, was founded in 1534. Taking vows of poverty of celibacy, and with the fanatical elevation of the catholic faith, the early Jesuits soon began to proselytise settlements of the Far East. Following the first appearance of the Portuguese traders at Tanegashima in 1543, the Jesuit missionary Francis Xavier arrived on Japanese soil with the intention of converting Japan to Catholicism. Unfortunately, the largely Shinto and Buddhist faithful did not easily accept Catholic ideas. Arriving during the most serious civil war in Japan's history meant that many Daimyo's were uninterested in Xavier's work. And, once Buddhist Monks realised that Catholicism was a rival faith, they spoke out against it. However, Catholicism did flourish in the province of Otomo, who saw both economic and military benefits in trade with the Portuguese. Their Daimyo, Otomo Sorin, was willing to allow his people to chose their own religion if it meant having easier access to guns. Eventually Xavier was successful after he drew parallels between Jesuit Catholicism and the spiritual world of his Japanese students. Although he eventually learned Japanese, Xavier initially found it impenetrable and spread his message through Christian Iconography. His success eventually led to the appearance of Jesuit Hospitals, Seminaries and Colleges across the Otomo Territory.
