		In part because the founder of the Ashikaga shogunate, Ashikaga Takauji, did so by siding with the Emperor against the previous Kamakura shogunate, the Ashikagas shared more of the governmental authority with the Imperial government than the Kamakura had.
		Thus, it was the weakest shogunate among Kamakura shogunate and Tokugawa shogunate.
		The Ashikaga shogunate was destroyed in 1573 when Oda Nobunaga drove the 15th and last Ashikaga shogun Yoshiaki out of Kyoto.

	History of Japan
		In a reaction against what it considered the decadence of Kyoto in its devotion to the arts of peace, the shogunate in Kamakura encouraged austerity and the pursuit of the martial arts and disciplines required to restore effective control throughout the land, especially over restive clans in the remoter provinces.
		After two centuries of rule, the shogunate in Muromachi was confronted by a growing challenge to its authority from rival clans in other parts of the country.
		Christianity was eventually proscribed, and the Tokugawa shogunate barred entry to all foreigners, except a handful of Dutch traders confined to the small island of Dejima in Nagasaki Bay, some Chinese living in Nagasaki, and occasional royal envoys from Lee-dynasty Korea.

		The most powerful leader in Japan was a man whose title reflected his status as the most revered among warlord figures: the shogun, a title which means, "the general." The "shogunate" (office of shogun) was held by hereditary right, and each feudal era represents the dominance of one clan, whose leader succeeded to the shogunate.
		The most important leaders under the shogun were local warlords, called daimyo, which means "great names" -- daimyo served the shogun by mobilizing warriors loyal to them and to the shogun -- their samurai.
		At the transition from Ashikaga to Tokugawa, increased centralization of resources in the hands first of daimyo, then of the great unifying figures of the "Warring States Era," and finally of the Tokugawa founders, created a certain culture of aristocratic and military excess.

		In addition, the shoguns tried with some success to appoint shugo to provinces in which they had few landholdings of their own, in order to prevent the creation of regional power bases that might pose a threat to the shogunate.
		The collapse of the prestige of the shogunate and the decline of Kyoto as a political center after the Onin War also meant that there was little temptation for daimyo to jump prematurely from their local bases to a "national" political stage, because such a stage no longer existed.
		From the warfare of this period was forged the foundation of both the Tokugawa shogunate and, in certain fundamental ways, Japan's uniquely successful response to the challenge of Western industrial imperialism in the nineteenth century.

		In 1615, Shogun Ieyasu captured the mighty Osaka Castle from the remaining Hideyori loyalists, and destroyed the Toyotomi Clan in the last major battles of the Edo Period.
		Unfortunately for the Tokugawa Shoguns, this was simply not sufficient to hide the fact that the unification had rendered a large part of the samurai role obsolete.

		The Shogun, Ashikaga Yoshiharu, was especially appreciative, and after Nakahara lost an arm in battle and was forced to retire in 1543, offered him a position as the leader of a group of warriors trained to carry on his battle.
		The first was that it became possible to disassociate itself from the Shogunate, thereby assuring the survival of the secret group even when the Ashikaga Shogunate fell, and again in future years as the government changed numerous times.
		At the beginning of the Tokugawa Period, the newly established Shogunate did indeed have a great deal of control within the Kuromaku, and as such was easily able to establish itself as both the visible and invisible ruler of Japan.
