Emperor Tsuchimikado

Tsuchimikado (1196–1231), the eldest son of Emperor Go-Toba, was placed on the throne in 1198 at the age of two when his father abdicated; Go-Toba held real power. In 1210 Go-Toba made him yield the throne to his younger brother Juntoku, who favored overthrowing the shogunate.

He took no part in the Jōkyū War of 1221, yet after its failure he asked to share his father's punishment and was exiled to Tosa and then Awa. He died in Awa in 1231, aged thirty-five.
