  Tokugawa shogunate
The Tokugawa Shogunate or Tokugawa bakufu (徳川幕府) (also known as the Edo bakufu) was a feudal military dictatorship established in 1603 by Tokugawa Ieyasu and ruled by the shoguns of the Tokugawa family to 1867 AD.

Matsudaira was a relative of the shogun (the Tokugawa being essentially the core branch of the Matsudaira families) and as part of the sankinkotai system spent 6 months of the year in Edo, with the rest of his time administering the feudal domain in Kofu.
When his son Ienobu succeeded Tsunashige as daimyo of Kofu, the garden became an important location for meetings, since Ienobu was the shogun's nephew (and somewhat more sane than the 5th shogun).
It was to Katsu that Tokugawa Yoshinobu announced at a meeting on one of the lawns adjoining the villa in Hamarikyu, that the Satsuma and Choshu forces were "carrying the brocade banner" of the emperor, and that all was therefore lost.
