Japan has seen many battles for cultural legitimacy.
From the defeat of the great Emishi leader Aterui in 802, to the defeat (also in Iwate) of Kunohe Masazane at the hands of military hegemon Toyotomi Hideyoshi, to the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the struggle to create a culturally unified nation has been a defining factor in Japanese history.
In Hiraizumi, too, culture was at stake in the fierce fighting between the Oshu Fujiwara and the Minamoto.
