Go-Nijô was an [[emperor]] of the [[Kamakura period]]. He was the eldest son of [[Emperor Go-Uda]] and [[Minamoto no Kishi]] (also known as Saikamon'in), but did not succeed his father directly. Due to a custom of the time of alternating the throne between two Imperial lineages, following Go-Uda's retirement in [[1287]], [[Emperor Fushimi|Emperors Fushimi]] and [[Emperor Go-Fushimi|Go-Fushimi]] of the Jimyôin line ruled, before the throne returned to the Daikaku-ji line. Go-Nijô thus took the throne in [[1301]], while Go-Uda continued to rule as [[insei|retired emperor]].

The Daikaku-ji line fractured during Go-Nijô's reign, as two, and then three, separate claimants to the succession emerged. Go-Nijô then died in [[1308]], at age 23, and was succeeded by [[Emperor Hanazono]].
