Matsudaira Sadanobu
was a Japanese ''daimyō'' of the mid-Edo period, famous for his financial reforms which saved the Shirakawa Domain, and the similar reforms he undertook during his tenure as chief of the Tokugawa shogunate, from 1787 to 1793. Early life Matsudaira Sadanobu was the seventh son of Tokugawa Munetake, of the Tayasu branch of the Tokugawa clan. The Tayasu was one of the '' gosankyō'', the senior-most of the lesser cadet branches of the Shōgun's family, and was thus the grandson of the reform-minded eighth shōgun Tokugawa Yoshimune. The Tayasu house stood apart from the other cadet branches resident in Edo Castle, living a more austere lifestyle, following the example set by Yoshimune—in Munetake's words, the praise of manly spirit (''masuraoburi'') as opposed to feminine spirit (''taoyameburi''). It also set itself apart from the other branches due to its history of thwarted political ambition—the founder, Munetake, had hoped to become his father's heir but was passed ove ...

It was centered around Iwamura Castle, and controlled parts of Mino and Suruga Provinces. Iwamura Domain was controlled by a number of ''fudai daimyō'' clans in the course of its history. History Following the Battle of Sekigahara, Tokugawa Ieyasu transferred Matsudaira Ienari of the Ogyū-Matsudaira clan from Niwa Domain in Kōzuke Province to the newly created Iwamura Domain. His son, Matsudaira Norinaga, distinguished himself during the Siege of Osaka and was rewarded with a promotion to Hamamatsu Domain in 1638. He was replaced by Niwa Ujinobu, formerly of Ibo Domain in Mikawa Province. He was from the Isshiki-Niwa clan, and was thus no relation to the more famous Niwa Nagahide, although both served Oda Nobunaga, and later Tokugawa Ieyasu. The Niwa clan ruled for five generations until 1705. The 5th ''daimyō'', Niwa Ujioto, attempte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
