The shogunate attempted to resolve the situation by suggesting a compromise, in which the succession would alternate between the two lines. Backed by the shogunate, Emperor Fushimi won the immediate succession dispute, and managed to have his son succeed him as [[Emperor Go-Fushimi]] (r. 1298-1301) before the succession alternated back to the Daikaku-ji line, with Emperor Go-Nijô in [[1301]].

[[Emperor Go-Daigo]] sought to put an end to this system, and to restore power to the Imperial Court, igniting a complex series of events<ref>See [[Genko War|Genkô War]], [[Kemmu Restoration]].</ref> which led to the collapse of the [[Kamakura shogunate]], the rise of the [[Ashikaga shogunate]], and the beginning of the Nanboku-chô period. His own Daikaku-ji line ruled as emperors of the Southern Court, from their base in [[Yoshino]], while the shogunate-backed Jimyô-in line continued to rule in Kyoto as the Northern Court. This state of affairs lasted until [[1392]], when the Southern Court was eliminated, and the Northern Court reinstated a singular emperor, and singular line of succession.
