  Kuge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The kuge (公家) was a Japanese aristocratic class that dominated the Japanese imperial court in Kyoto until the rise of the Shogunate in the 12th century at which point it was eclipsed by the daimyo.
The highest members of the kuge class were known as Sessho or Kanpaku, acting as imperial regents; this was restricted to members of the Fujiwara family.
In 1869 during the Meiji restoration the kuge merged with the daimyo to form a single aristocratic group, the kazoku.

 Net4TV Voice: Surfari: Feudal Japan, Part I
In this surfari, the classes I'm primarily concerned with are the warriors and aristocrats of the Imperial court, otherwise known as the buke and kuge.
Nonetheless, the kuge were like all other classes in that they believed that behaving outside what was ‘appropriate’ for their social station was suicide for their career.
While kuge lifestyles eventually resulted in the overthrow of the government and Imperial Restoration of 1868, their time-inspired notions of what was ‘proper’ and ‘suitable’ were rubbing off on the classes below them, and on the military houses (buke) in particular.
