Tokusei Ikki - Tokusei Ikki

Japanese: 徳政一揆 - とくせいいっき

The peasant uprisings occurred during the Muromachi period, demanding the issuance of a decree of amnesty. Local samurai, farmers, and horse-lenders in the Kinai region and the surrounding areas, who suffered from high interest rates and forced collection by financial businesses such as sake makers and soil storehouses, rose up in rebellions, demanding the issuance of a decree of amnesty from the shogunate, or directly attacking financial businesses. The most famous rebellion was in 1428 (Shocho 1), when horse-lenders in Omi, Yamashiro, and Yamato rose up in large numbers (→Shocho Uprising). Another large-scale uprising that occurred in September 141 (Kakitsu 1) was said to have involved tens of thousands of people, stretching from Omi Sakamoto to Yamashiro Fushimi and Saga. Other famous uprisings include those in 1429 (Kyotoku 3), 1430 (Choroku 3), 1431 (Kansho 2), 1432 (Bunmei 17), and 1433 (Entoku 2). (→Tokusei)
