日本の歴史上の封建領主

AI overview

A daimyo was a powerful feudal lord in medieval and early-modern Japan who controlled a territory and its people. Daimyo mattered because they dominated Japanese politics and warfare for centuries, particularly during the Sengoku period (around 1570 AD shown in the map), when they competed for power and shaped the nation's political landscape.

大名(だいみょう)とは、もともとは私田の一種の名田の所有者のことをいい、名田の大小によって大名・小名に区別された。平安時代末頃からこの語が見られるようになり、鎌倉時代以降は大きな所領をもって家臣団を形成した有力武士を大名と呼ぶようになった。
