		The first Heian Emperor Kammu was probably the most powerful of any Emperor before or since, but after his death in 806 the Fujiwara increased in political power by providing the imperial house with Fujiwara concubines and imperial consorts, thus forging marriage bonds that gave Fujiwara nobles access to the highest Court administrative positions.
		In 858 the Fujiwara clan got a real foothold on power when Fujiwara Yoshifusa was made Regent for his grandson, the emperor Seiwa.
		But since the imperial government was controlled by the Fujiwara, no amount of efficiency and talent in anyone not born to the Fujiwara clan could earn him any advantage from the system.

	Classical Japan - The Heian Era - Japanese Culture
		While the Emperor (or "Tenno") was the figurehead ruler, it was the Fujiwara ("wisteria field") clan in the Heian period that held true power due in large part to political wrangling (inter-marriages with the Imperial court and nepotism).
		Fujiwara Yoshifusa (804-872) had installed his own grandson as Emperor.
		The end of the Heian era was brought about due to the decline of effective rule by the government and failures of the Taika reforms - a tax structure which ended up heavily taxing farmers, but not the many shrines and temples.
