  Science Fair Projects - Azai Hisamasa
Azai Hisamasa (浅井 久政 Azai Hisamasa) (1524 - September 23, 1573) was a son of Azai Sukemasa and the second head of Azai clan.
Hisamasa became the head of Azai clan on 1542 after his father died, but unlike his father, he was never a strong leader.
Hisamasa's retainers had enough with Hisamasa and after his son Azai Nagamasa won the Battle of Norada against at least double the number of troop commanded by Rokkaku Yoshikata to win back independence, they forced Hisamasa into a retirement.
