==History== After the Fujiwara no Hirotsugu rebellion, the capital was moved from Heijō-kyō by decree of Emperor Shōmu on December 15, 740. The new site was located in Soraku County, Yamashiro Province; nevertheless, its official name was "Yamato no Kuni no Omiya." The reason for choosing this location may have been because it was the stronghold of the Udaijin Tachibana no Moroe, who had de facto power over the "dajō-kan" or "Great Council".
