Hōjō Sadatoki

Hōjō Sadatoki (1272–1311), the ninth Kamakura shikken, was Tokimune's eldest son. He succeeded in 1284 aged twelve. The 1285 Shimotsuki Disturbance destroyed his mother's Adachi clan and left Taira no Yoritsuna in control; in 1293 Sadatoki had Yoritsuna killed in the Heizenmon purge.

He strengthened tokusō rule, created the Chinzei tandai in 1296 and issued the Einin edict of 1297. He took vows in 1301 and passed the regency to Hōjō Morotoki but kept power until his death; his son was Hōjō Takatoki.
