*''Japanese'': [[蜂須賀]]斉裕 ''(Hachisuka Narihiro)''
Hachisuka Narihiro was the penultimate lord of [[Tokushima han]].
The 22nd child of [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Ienari]], Narihiro was adopted into the [[Hachisuka clan]] in [[1827]], and became lord of Tokushima in [[1843]].
Through much of the disputes of the [[Bakumatsu period]], Narihiro maintained a position of compromise and conciliation between the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] and [[sonno|Imperial]] factions. He resisted shogunal requests to dispatch troops to attack [[Choshu han|Chôshû]] on several occasions, but also did not dispatch troops in support of the Imperial loyalists. During the second Chôshû expedition, Tokushima eventually did send troops, but the battle ended before they reached the front; following the Imperial victories in the [[battle of Toba-Fushimi]] in 1868, Narihiro dispatched troops to [[Tohoku|Tôhoku]] to aid the Imperial faction, but ultimately played only a minor role in the events surrounding the [[Meiji Restoration]] & the [[Boshin War]].
Following his death in 1868, Narihiro was succeeded by [[Hachisuka Mochiaki]], who served as governor of Tokushima until the [[abolition of the han]] in [[1871]].
