Toyotomi Hideyoshi was born in what is now Nakamura-ku, Nagoya in the Owari province, the home of the Oda clan.
Toyotomi's underaged son and designated successor Hideyori lost the claim to the power his father once held, and Tokugawa Ieyasu was declared Shogun following the Battle of Sekigahara.
Toyotomi's stereotypical, monkey-like appearance, for example, is used in Onimusha, and he is portrayed in the popular video game as a sneaky and cunning character.

 Wakayama Castle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Originally Ota castle, it was captured by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1585, and rebuilt under the supervision of Toyotomi Hidenaga, Hideyoshi's brother.
The castle was later attacked, in 1615, by forces loyal to Toyotomi Hideyori, who were trying to end the siege of Osaka.
Asano's men left the castle to meet the Western (Toyotomi) forces in what came to be known as the ' battle of Kashii.' Hanawa and Okabe were killed, and Ono was forced to flee back to Osaka.

 Hashiba [Toyotomi] Hidenaga   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)

Hidenaga joined Hideyoshi's staff when the latter took up in Ômi province in 1573 and following Oda Nobunaga's death in 1582 and the defeat of Akechi Mitsuhide was given the fief of Koriyama in Yamato (confiscated from the Tsutsui).

 Toyotomi Hideyoshi
One of the most remarkable men in Japanese history, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was born a peasant and yet rose to finally end the Sengoku Period.
The Toyotomi progress was almost leisurely, especially since the only real Shimazu resistance would come at the Sendai River on 6 June, and this was in essence a show of simple defiance by the proud Shimazu warriors.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi was truly a remarkable figure, an anomalous character in the pageant of Japanese history that continues to provoke debate and study.

Hidenaga was Hideyoshi's half-brother and a chief retainer, also known as Toyotomi Hidenaga.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi (who outnumbered Honda perhaps 50 or 60 to 1) was said to have been struck by the bravery of this warrior, and ordered that no harm come to him, his men, or Ishikawa Yasumichi, who accompanied him on this bid to buy time for Ieyasu.
Katô was a friend to Toyotomi Hideyori - Hideyoshi's son - and this made him a potential stumbling block in Ieyasu's plan to undermine this last threat to the Tokugawa shogunate.

 The Gunshi: Master of Disaster   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Without a Takenaka Hanbei, Kuroda Kanbei or Hideyoshi's brother Toyotomi Koichiro Hidenaga, Hideyoshi attempted a grossly tragic invasion of Korea, with the intent of subjugating all of Asia.
Hideyori and his followers perished in the siege of Osaka Castle, and the hegemony of the Toyotomi house lasted but a few years after the death of its founder, Hideyoshi.
While the gunshi was revered in the days of battle, Sasama notes that the long peacetime of the Edo period (1600 - 1868) led to a degeneration of the status of the gunshi and of the respect given to such a person.
