Ashikaga Yoshimochi was the fourth shogun of the [[Ashikaga Bakufu]], serving as shogun from [[1394]] to [[1423]], and again in [[1425]] to [[1428]].
Following his father's death in [[1408]], Yoshimochi severed the formal relations with [[Ming Dynasty]] China that his father had established only years before. The [[Yongle Emperor]] sent missions in [[1417]] and [[1419]] requesting the restoration of relations, but was rebuffed both times.
Following the death of Shogun [[Ashikaga Yoshikazu]] in 1425, Yoshimochi returned to the position, until his own death three years later.
