In [[1587]] [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]] invaded Kyushu and the Omura submitted, though they suffered the loss of the Nagasaki trade. Sumitada died that same year and was succeeded by his son [[Omura Yoshiaki|Yoshiaki]] ([[1568]]-[[1615]]). Like his father, Yoshiaki was a Christian, and in that capacity was known as Dom Sancho. Yoshiaki served in the [[1592]] Korean invasion, leading 1,000 men under [[Konishi Yukinaga]]. In [[1600]] he elected to remain neutral during the Sekigahara campaign and as a result was ordered to retire in favor of his son Suminobu. Although baptized in his youth, Suminobu persecuted those Christians still residing in Omura and helped put down the [[Shimabara Rebellion]] ([[1637]]-[[1638|38]]). The Omura stood as a daimyo house until the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate and the abolishment of the han in the 19th Century.
