  Emperor Chuai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chūai was a Japanese monarch, the 14th emperor (tenno) of Japan to appear on the traditional list of emperors.
No firm date can be assigned to this monarch and he is regarded by historians as a "legendary emperor." This does not necessarily imply that no such person existed, just that there is insufficient evidence to conclude that he existed or assign him to a particular period of history.
However, since he was the putative father of Hondawake (posthumously Ojin Tenno) (who is generally accepted to have been real and is found in contemporary archaeological sources) in the Kojiki, he was probably a historical figure.
