Kanrei
or, more rarely, ''kanryō'', was a high political post in feudal Japan; it is usually translated as ''shōguns deputy''. After 1349, there were actually two ''Kanrei'', the ''Kyoto Kanrei'' and the ''Kantō Kanrei''. But originally from 1219 until 1333, the post was synonymous with the ''Rokuhara Tandai'', and was based in Kyoto. The Hōjō clan monopolized this post, and there were during this period two Deputies – a southern chief, and a northern chief. From 1336 to 1367, the Deputy was called . The first to hold this title was Kō no Moronao. Following the fall of the Kamakura shogunate and abolition of the ''Rokuhara Tandai'' position, both occurring in 1333, Ashikaga Takauji created the post of ''Kantō Kanrei'', or Shogun's Deputy in the East ('' Kantō'' generally refers to the area around and including modern Tokyo). In 1367, Hosokawa Yoriyuki was chosen by a council to become Deputy (Kyoto ''Kanrei''). In order to ensure the loyalty of his colleagues, the Hatakeyam ...

Shugo
, commonly translated as ' ilitarygovernor', 'protector', or 'constable', was a title given to certain officials in feudal Japan. They were each appointed by the shogun to oversee one or more of the provinces of Japan. The position gave way to the emergence of the daimyo (military feudal lords) in the late 15th century, as ''shugo'' began to claim power over lands themselves, rather than serving simply as governors on behalf of the shogunate. History The post is said to have been created in 1185 by shogun Minamoto no Yoritomo to aid the capture of Yoshitsune, with the additional motivation of extending the rule of the Minamoto shogunate government throughout Japan. The ''shugo'' (military governors) progressively supplanted the existing ''kokushi'' (civil governors), who were appointed by the Imperial Court in Kyoto.
