Nobunaga's organizational system in particular was later used and extensively developed by his ally Tokugawa Ieyasu in the forming of the Tokugawa shogunate in Edo.

In 1192, Yoritomo was awarded the title of Sei-i Taishōgun by the emperor and the political system he developed with a succession of shogun at the head became known as a shogunate.

The term bakufu originally meant the dwelling and household of a shogun, but in time it came to be generally used for the system of government of a feudal military dictatorship, exercised in the name of the shogun ; and this is the meaning that has been adopted into English through the term ' shogunate '.

The shogunate system was originally established under the Kamakura shogunate by Minamoto no Yoritomo.

There were emperors who abdicated and cloistered emperors before and after the Heian period, but the cloistered rule system usually refers to the governing system put in place by Emperor Shirakawa in 1086 and remained in force until the rise of the Kamakura shogunate in 1192.

Still, the Hōjō regents increased their control of the shogunate, setting up the system of rule by regents.

The system of government he established became formalized as the shogunate.

Early in the Edo period, the shogunate viewed the tozama as the least likely to be loyal ; over time, strategic marriages and the entrenchment of the system made the tozama less likely to rebel.

This process culminating in the han system, where each daimyo ruled their fiefs as unitary kingdoms, enjoying semi-independence from the shogunate where internal affairs are concerned.

The system also involved the daimyo's wives and heirs remaining in Edo, disconnected from their lord and from their home province, serving essentially as hostages who might be harmed or killed if the daimyo were to plot rebellion against the shogunate.

These themes were partly inspired by the death of Yoshitoshi's father in 1863 and by the lawlessness and violence of the Japan surrounding him, which was simultaneously experiencing the breakdown of the feudal system imposed by the Tokugawa shogunate, as well as the impact of contact with Westerners.

In 1225 he created the Hyōjō ( 評定 ), the council system of the shogunate.

The Muromachi shogunate took over the system of Hikitsuke, but it lost its substantial meaning after Ashikaga Tadayoshi died, who controlled the Hikitsuke.

The samurai retainers of the shogunate were appointed commissioners of riparian work on the Kisogawa river system, and carried out the Horeki flood control project.

It was a system in which strict regulations were applied to commerce and foreign relations by the shogunate, and by certain feudal domains ( han ).

Until the Meiji era, Tsushima's status as a frontier between Japan and Korea, its heavy dependence on the Trade with Korea, as well as its unique institutions / systems of trade ( which strongly resembled those of Korean, not Japanese, institutions-for instance, Measurement system for the taxation of land in Japan, is determined by the production of rice ( Koku ) However, Tsushima where the quantity of production of a rice is poor was permitted the unique survey system ( 間高 ( Kendaka )) by Tokugawa shogunate.

This institution stood at the apex of the country-wide educational and training system which was created and maintained by the Tokugawa shogunate.

The term was first used by the Tokugawa shogunate in an attempt to extricate Japan from the Sino-centric system of relations.

In 1868, when the shogunate came to an end, the city was renamed Tokyo (" eastern capital ").

The end of the Kamakura shogunate came when Kamakura fell in 1333 and the Hōjō Regency was destroyed.

After Takeda ’ s death in 1582, Kai-no-Kuni came under the control of the Oda and Toyotomi clans before being subsumed into the Tokugawa shogunate during the Edo period.

Beneath the Edo shogunate, the Kofu clan ( based in Kuninaka, or Central and Western Yamanashi ) and the Yamura clan ( based in Gunnai, or Eastern Yamanashi ) were formed, but in 1724 the area came under the direct control of the Shogunate.

Although the final fall of the Tokugawa shogunate only came about during the Meiji Restoration and as a result of the opening of Edo-era Japan to the Western world, it was not simply their inability to cope with the situation that was their undoing.

, literally " end of the curtain ", are the final years of the Edo period when the Tokugawa shogunate came to an end.

The came at the end of the Warring States Period in Japan, when the political unification that preceded the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate took place.

The Kamakura shogunate was overthrown, and Go-Daigo began the process which came to be known as the Kemmu Restoration.

In 1331 the shogunate exiled Go-Daigo but loyalist forces, including Kusunoki Masashige, rebelled and came to his support.

As Rōjū Mizuno Tadakuni wielded tremendous political power, and attempted to overhaul the shogunate ’ s finances and social controls in the aftermath of the Great Tempo Famine of 1832-36 by the passage of numerous sumptuary laws which came to be known as the Tenpo Reform.

About a hundred years later the city came under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate.

The area eventually came under the control of the Tokugawa clan, and during the Edo period, most of the area was ruled by Nishio Domain, a minor fudai feudal domain of the Tokugawa shogunate.

After another series of shogunate victories on the outskirts of Osaka, the Summer Campaign came to a head at the battle of Tennōji.

Following disasters caused by eruptions of nearby Mount Fuji, a portion also came to be held as tenryō territory administered by the Tokugawa shogunate.

: The historical Yoshimune came to power when the main line of succession to the Tokugawa shogunate came to an end.

The short-lived restoration was thwarted by Ashikaga Takauji who established a new bakufu which came to be known as the Ashikaga shogunate or the Muromachi shogunate.

Because of that, he came to participated in the Muromachi shogunate in depth.

The three would begin fighting for domination of the clan and the region almost as soon as the split occurred, and intense fighting continued for roughly twenty-five years, until the end of the Ōnin War came about in 1477, bringing with it the end of the shogunate.

A number of his relatives and vassals who opposed his rule came to Edo to petition the bakufu ( shogunate ) for his son, Date Tsunamura, to become daimyō.

Over time, many of these smaller fiefs came to be dominated by the Shugo, Constables who were administrators appointed by the shogunate to oversee the provinces.

During the Kemmu Restoration, after the fall of the Kamakura shogunate in 1333, another short-lived shogun arose.

However, this and similar legends appear to have arisen only after Kamatari's descendant Fujiwara no Yoritsune became the fourth shogun of the Kamakura shogunate in 1226, some time after the name Kamakura appears in the historical record. It used to be also called ( short for ).

Toward the end of the 19th century, an alliance of several of the more powerful daimyo, along with the titular Emperor, finally succeeded in the overthrow of the shogunate after the Boshin War, culminating in the Meiji Restoration.

Their clan ( Taira clan ) would not be overthrown until after the Gempei War, which marked the start of the shogunate.

Yoritomo's wife's family, the Hōjō, took control after his death at Kamakura, maintaining power over the shogunate until 1333, under the title of shikken ( regent to the Shogun ).

Less than a century after the end of the Nanboku-chō Wars, peace under the relatively weak Ashikaga shogunate was destroyed by the outbreak of the Ōnin War, a roughly ten-year struggle that converted the capital of Kyoto into a battlefield and a heavily fortified city that suffered severe destruction.

The constitution recognized the need for change and modernization after removal of the shogunate:

The period marks the governance of the Muromachi or Ashikaga shogunate ( Muromachi bakufu or Ashikaga bakufu ), which was officially established in 1338 by the first Muromachi shogun, Ashikaga Takauji, two years after the brief Kemmu restoration ( 1333 – 1336 ) of imperial rule was brought to a close.

Although a start date of 1573 is often given, in more broad terms, this period begins with Nobunaga's entry into Kyoto in 1568, when he led his army to the imperial capital in order to install Ashikaga Yoshiaki as the 15th, and ultimately final, shogun of the Ashikaga shogunate, and lasts until the coming to power of Tokugawa Ieyasu after his victory over supporters of the Toyotomi clan at the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600.

Soon after, Nitta Yoshisada attacked Kamakura, destroying the shogunate.

Although initially faced with attacks by hostile clans, he managed to overcome them after a few defeats and eventually ruled one of the largest fiefdoms of the later Tokugawa shogunate.

The following year the Tokugawa shogunate was forced to accept the American demands after signing the Convention of Kanagawa.

Sakai Tadakiyo, one of Ietsuna's most favored advisors, suggested that the succession not pass to someone of the Tokugawa line, but rather to the blood royal, favoring one of the sons of Emperor Go-Sai to become the next shogun ( like during the Kamakura shogunate ) but Tadakiyo was dismissed soon after.

Hiratsuka was retained as tenryō territory after the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate, and flourished as Hiratsuka-juku, a post town on the Tōkaidō connecting Edo with Kyoto.

However, Mizuno Katsunari, the grandson of Tadamasa was allowed to return to the clan ’ s ancestral territories by Ieyasu after the Battle of Sekigahara as daimyo of Kariya Domain a feudal han under the Tokugawa shogunate.

In 1358 after the death of Takauji, the shogunate passed into the hands of his son Yoshiakira.

In 1639, after suppressing a rebellion blamed on the Christian influence, the ruling Tokugawa shogunate retreated into an isolationist policy, the Sakoku.

The duo are joined by Tsubute ( a young thief ) and Dakuan ( Tokugawa shogunate spy ), and together they try to find out why both the Kimon and the Hiruko clan are after her and why the Dragon Stone she carries is so important to them.

This fourth story arc concerns the events after Last Blood, beginning with a few apparently random fights that, in consequence, lead Manji to join up with the shogunate in fighting Ittō-ryū.

However, after the shogunate's loss there, many fudai houses did not side with the shogunate or with the shogun's former army which moved northward and eventually set up the Ezo Republic.

About 27, 000 people joined the uprising, but it was crushed by the shogunate after a sustained campaign.
