The statement that best describes an accurate distribution of power in feudal Japan is:

The shogun ruled through the military strength of his daimyo, who managed plots of land throughout the country.

In feudal Japan, the shogun was the military leader who held the most power, while the daimyo were powerful feudal lords who controlled land and acted as vassals to the shogun. The emperor was mostly a ceremonial figure during this period.
