Changes

The '''Nabeshima clan''' of [[Hizen province]] were descendants of the [[Shoni clan]]. During the [[Sengoku Period]], the Nabeshima were very valued retainers under the [[Ryuzoji clan]]. After the decline of the Ryuzoji during the year of [[1584]], [[Nabeshima Naoshige]] secured his independence by giving birth to a line of [[Daimyo]] following on to the [[Edo Period]]. A retainer of the Nabeshima, [[Yamamoto Tsunetomo]] would later become famous for writing the well-known book of "[[Hagakure]]".
