  Ospreysamurai.com - The samurai way of death
There were therefore sound reasons for the Nitta to be envious of the Hojo, so they now threw in their lot with Go Daigo, hoping that this time they were supporting an eventual victor.
When the battle was seen to be lost, the Hojo family and their closest retainers decided to die like true samurai, and the Taiheiki has preserved the gory record of their departure.
Several of the senior family members were concerned that their leader Hojo Takatoki would not have the courage to commit hara kiri himself, so the others decided to set a precedent.

 Sengoku Period   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Many of the provincial daimyo, such as the Shimazu, Takeda, and Imagawa, having ruled their lands under the authority of not only the Ashikaga shogunate, but also under the preceding Kamakura shogunate, established their own independent domains.
However, many others, like the Hosokawa, Shiba, and Toki found their lands taken over by their own subjects and retainers, like the Oda, late Hojo, and Saito Dosan, who had seized the opportunity to establish their own name and become new Sengoku daimyo in their own right.
Hideyoshi first conquered Shikoku (Shikoku Heitei), then Kyushu (Kyushu Heitei) to finally unite all of Japan in 1590 by defeating the later Hojo clan of Sagami province in the conquest and siege of Odawara (Odawara Seibatsu).
