地元の僕が教える古都鎌倉歴史探訪

According to "Azuma Kagami", on December 12, 1180 (Jisho 4), Okura Gosho, the residence of Yoritomo, was established in Okura-go, Kamakura, and the samurai office, which could be called the prototype of the shogunate's governing structure, was established. As a result, the reality of the samurai government was formed. In the decree issued in October 1183, the Imperial Court made Yoritomo guarantee the payment of official goods and annual tribute from the manors and public lands in the Togoku region, and at the same time authorized Yoritomo's control over the Togoku region. Defeated the Taira clan in the Battle of Dannoura (1185), and in the same year, under the imperial sanction of Bunji (1185), Yoritomo was granted Shugo and Jito to the provinces. Authorized the establishment, appointment and dismissal of positions. In 1190, Yoritomo was appointed Gon Dainagon and Ukone no daisho (Grand Chief of the Right Guard), and was given the right to establish the Kobunsho (later known as Mandokoro), the domestic administrative institution of the lord of the manor. In 1192, he was proclaimed Seii Taishogun. Thus, the samurai government was established both in name and reality. Although the shogunate was in charge of maintaining public order in various countries with the establishment of shugo, its control was limited at first, but gradually expanded its scope. Through the Jokyu War and the Genko, it came to establish nationwide rulership.
