A Brief History
Administrative center: Ogi city (the modern city of Ogi in Saga Prefecture ).
Khan's income: 73,000 coca rice
The principality was ruled by the Nabeshima clan, which belonged to the tozama daimyo and had the status of the ruler of the camp (陣 屋). The heads of the clan had the right to be present in the Shogun 's willow hall.
Initially, Ogi Khan was part of the Saga Khan . In 1642, Ogi Khan was created for Nabesima Motoshige (1602-1654), the eldest son of Nabesima Katsushige (1580-1657), the 1st daimo of the Saga Khan (1607-1657). Although Motoshige was the eldest son, he was ousted in the line of inheritance in Saga Khan in favor of his half-brother Nabesima Tadanao (1613-1635), whose mother was the daughter of the Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu .
Motoshige got the Ogi-khan domain with an income of 73 thousand koku of rice, and also served as an adviser to the shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu . His son, Nabeshima Naoyoshi , became the 2nd daimyo of Ogi Khan (1657–1679) and built a fortified house (Jin'ya), which became his residence and future city of Ogi . His son, Nabesima Tototake, held high posts on the board of the 5th Shogun Tokugawa Tsunayoshi . However, gradually the financial situation of the principality became very difficult. Ogi Khan was on the verge of bankruptcy, which is why relations with the main line from the Saga Khan became increasingly tense.
Under Nabeshima Naotaka (1804–1850), Ogi-khan was finally recognized as an independent principality and became directly dependent on the shogunate . Daimyo Ogi-khan received permission to build his own castle-residence, but was unable to do so due to lack of financial resources.
During the Bosin War of Nabeshima Naotor , the 11th and last daimyo of Ogi Khan (1864–1871), supported the Sacho Union and led the forces of Ogi Khan against Tokugawa supporters in Akita in northern Japan. For his loyalty to Emperor Meiji and his participation in hostilities against the Tokugawa Shogunate , the daimyo of Ogi Khan received 5,000 koku of rice in August 1869 . However, this award was only nominal.
In 1871, after the administrative-political reform, Ogi-khan was liquidated. The territory of the principality was included in the Saga Prefecture .
Nabeshima Naotora and his heirs received the title of viscount (boobs) in the kazoku system .
