Description
There is a partially legendary lineage of emperors (天皇, tennou) going back to Emperor Jimmu (神武天皇) in 660 BC.
Daimyo (大名, daimyou) were feudal lords nominally subordinate to the emperor.
Shogun (formally 征夷大将軍, seii taishougun, commander in chief) were military commanders with temporary administrative powers. From 1185 until 1868, these were the effective monarchs.
Shikken (執権) were regents within the shogunate administration (幕府, bakufu). From 1199 until 1333, these were the effective monarchs.
Tokugawa Shogunate
Empire of Japan
The emperor was a significant political force in the Empire of Japan, though the military continued to be the effective regime.
