Also known as Tairo

Tairō (, "great elder") was a high-ranking official position in the Tokugawa shogunate government of Japan, roughly comparable to the office of prime minister. The tairō presided over the governing rōjū council in the event of an emergency. A tairō was nominated from among the fudai daimyōs, who worked closely with the Tokugawa traditionally. Generally, the office holder was the shogunate's chief policymaker, and provided Japan with a capable temporary leader in the absence of a shōgun, or in the event that the shōgun was incapacitated.

Durante el gobierno del shogunato Tokugawa, en el Japón del siglo XVII, Tairō/Dairō (大老 Tairō/Dairō? lit. "gran anciano") era una posición gubernamental de alto rango. El tairō, un samurái veterano, usualmente presidiría el concejo de ancianos en caso de una emergencia. Generalmente, la función del tairō era proveer al Japón de un líder temporal capaz de gobernar en caso de que el shōgun estuviera ausente o incapacitado hasta que el shōgun volviera a estar capacitado o hubiera uno nuevo. * Datos: Q956844 * Multimedia: Tairō of the Tokugawa Shogunate / Q956844
