[October 21] Go-Tsuchimikado, emperor of Japan

Local Name: 後土御門天皇
Parents: Go-Hanazono, emperor of Japan, and Öinomikado, daughter of Fujiwara Takanaga
Born: 3 July 1442
House: Japan
Spouse(s): Kasannoin Fujiwara
Predecessor: Go-Hanazono
Reign: 1464 – 1500
Brief: While little of note can be said of the reigns of the emperors of Japan in this era, a few important events occurred during Go-Tsuchimikado's reign that effected the future of the Japanese imperial family. Go-Tsuchimikado reigned during the Önin War, where Shinto shrines and temples across Japan were pillaged and ransacked. This led directly to the decline of the imperial family's financial stability. Tsuchimikado's reign was the longest prior to Emperor Meiji, but most of its was under the indirect leadership of first the emperor's uncle, and then his father. By the time the latter died in 1471, the war had devastated the reputation of the imperial family and few sought to revive it. Emperor Go-Tsuchimikado's death in 1500 was a passing note. His successor, his eldest son Go-Kashiwabara, lacked the funds to pay for a state funeral, and Tsuchimikado's body lay in a storeroom for a month while donations were made for his burial. Kashiwabara's reign was the lowest point in the history of the Japanese imperial family.
Date of Death: 21 October 1500
Successor: Go-Kashiwabara

  • Alix, duchess of Brittany (1221)
