Q: Context: The , also known as the , was a dynasty originating from one of the plethora of Japanese "daimys" which governed Japan from 1338 to 1573, the year in which Oda Nobunaga deposed Ashikaga Yoshiaki. The heads of government were the shoguns. Each was a member of the Ashikaga clan., Life.
Yoshimi was the abbot of a Jdo monastery when he was first approached in 1464 by Hosokawa Katsumoto, who wished to support a bid for Yoshimi to become shogun. He originally sought to stick to his religious life, and had no desires to become shogun. However, by 1464, he was convinced to join his brother, the shogun, and assist him, putting himself into a position to be the next in the line of succession. The birth of the Shogun's son placed Yoshimi in an awkward situation, making his succession no longer definite, but he remained as Yoshimasa's Deputy., 
Events of the "nin" era.
The "nin War": This conflict began as a controversy over who should follow Ashikaga Yoshimasa as shogun after his retirement  whether it would be his brother (Yoshimi) or his son (Yoshihisa); but this succession dispute was merely a pretext for rival groups of "daimys" to fight in a struggle for military supremacy. In the end, there was no clearcut winner. The complex array of factional armies simply fought themselves into exhaustion., Moronao was an iconoclast with no intention of following tradition, particularly insofar as the Emperor was concerned. On the subject, he once said: 
What is the use of a King? Why should he live in a Palace? And why should we bow to him? If for some reason a King is needed, let us have one made of wood or metal, and let all the live Kings be banished.
The Taiheiki, an epic dedicated to the events of this period, describes the K brothers as avid villains. Moronao in particular is accused of violence, greed and lewdness. Because of this reputation, in the "bunraku" and "kabuki" play "Kanadehon Chshingura", which depicts the vendetta of the 47 Ronin, his name is used to represent Kira Yoshinaka., The in the history of Japan was a family who controlled the hereditary title of "shikken" (regent) of the Kamakura shogunate between 1203 and 1333. Despite the title, in practice the family wielded actual governmental power during this period compared to both the Kamakura shoguns, or the Imperial Court in Kyoto, whose authority was largely symbolic. The Hj are known for fostering Zen Buddhism and for leading the successful opposition to the Mongol invasions of Japan. Resentment at Hj rule eventually culminated in the overthrow of the clan and the establishment of the Ashikaga shogunate., Hatakeyama Masanaga (   , 1442 -- June 9 , 1493 ) was a daimyo of the Hatakeyama clan and , according to some accounts , invented the horo , a stiffened cloak used by messengers and bodyguards to improve their visibility on the battlefield , and to act as an arrow - catcher . Masanaga is most well known for his disputes in 1467 with Hatakeyama Yoshinari over the position of Kanrei . This grew out of the larger conflict between Hosokawa Katsumoto and Yamana Szen , which escalated into the nin War . Masanaga and Yoshinari were largely stalemated for much of this period , as Yamana and Hosokawa Katsumoto warned that the first to engage in battle within the capital would be declared a rebel . Becoming a `` rebel '' meant losing alliances as well as honor . Both were soon sucked into the larger war , however , and Hatakeyama Masanaga ended up fighting uchi Masahiro , one of Yamana 's generals ., This rivalry grew out of the larger conflict between Hosokawa Katsumoto and Yamana Szen, which escalated into the nin War. Masanaga and Yoshinari were largely stalemated for much of this period, as Yamana and Hosokawa Katsumoto warned that the first to engage in battle within the capital would be declared a rebel. Becoming a "rebel" meant losing alliances as well as honor., Biography.
Yamana Szen was born to Yamana Tokihiro (13671435), head of the Yamana clan. Tokihiro was the "shugo" governor of Tajima, Bingo, Aki, and Iga provinces. Tokihiro, who was often in bad health, retired in 1433 and passed his numerous lands to Szen. Szen went on to defeat Akamatsu Mitsuhide (13731441) in the Kakitsu Incident, and became governor Harima Province the same year., The was a civil war that lasted from 1467 to 1477, during the Muromachi period in Japan. "nin" refers to the Japanese era during which the war was fought. A dispute between Hosokawa Katsumoto and Yamana Szen escalated into a nationwide war involving the Ashikaga shogunate and a number of "daimys" in many regions of Japan., A was the military dictator of Japan during the period from 1185 to 1868 (with exceptions). In most of this period, the shoguns were the "de facto" rulers of the country; although nominally they were appointed by the Emperor as a ceremonial formality. The Shogun held almost absolute power over territories through military means. Nevertheless, an unusual situation occurred in the Kamakura period (11991333) upon the death of the first shogun, whereby the Hj clan's hereditary titles of "shikken" (1199-1256) and "tokus" (12561333) monopolized the shogunate as dictatorial positions, collectively known as the . The shogun during this 134-year period met the same fate as the Emperor and was reduced to a figurehead until a coup in 1333, when the Shogun was restored to power in the name of the Emperor., The was a Japanese samurai clan which was one of the most powerful of the Muromachi period (1336-1467); at its peak, members of the family held the position of Constable ("shugo") over eleven provinces. Originally from Kzuke Province, and later centered in Inaba province, the clan claimed descendance from the Seiwa Genji line, and from Minamoto no Yoshishige in particular. The clan took its name from the village of Yamana in present-day Gunma Prefecture. They were valued retainers under Minamoto no Yoritomo, and counted among his "gokenin"., His conflicts with his father-in-law, Yamana Szen, who resented the power Hosokawa had as Kanrei, were among those that ignited the nin War in 1467. When the Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa had a son in 1464, Yamana took this as an opportunity to oppose Hosokawa further, supporting the child as heir to the Shogunate. Hosokawa had always worked closely with the Shogun's brother Ashikaga Yoshimi, and supported his claim to the shogunate., Originally, from 1219 until 1333, the post was synonymous with the "Rokuhara Tandai", and was based in Kyoto. The Hj clan monopolized this post, and there were during this period two Deputies - a southern chief, and a northern chief. From 1336 to 1367, the Deputy was called . The first to hold this title was K no Moronao., During the Edo Period of Japanese history, the Ak Domain (fief) was part of Harima. The Forty-seven Ronin were samurai of the Ak han. Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries, a shipbuilder and major Boeing engine subcontractor gets its name from the province., Name.
