Ōchō

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ōchō (応長) was a Japanese era (年号,, nengō,, lit. "year name") after Enkyō and before Shōwa. This period started in April 1311 and ended in February 1312.[1] During this time, the emperor was Hanazono-tennō (花園天皇).[2]

Events of the Ōchō era

Retired former-Emperor Fushimi administered the court up through the time he took the tonsure as a Buddhist monk,[3] which happened after this nengō ended.[4]

After this era, the Fujiwara clan influence becomes so powerful that they are able to keep others below them in rank.[5]
