Changes

Yoshitane was a son of [[Ashikaga Yoshimi]] ([[1439]]-[[1491]]) and was adopted by his uncle, [[Ashikaga Yoshimasa]]. He became the 10th Ashikaga shôgun in [[1490]]. Yoshitane defeated the [[Rokkaku clan|Rokkaku]] in [[1493]] but was forced from office that same year by his kanrei, [[Hosokawa Masamoto]] and replaced by his cousin, [[Ashikaga Yoshizumi]]. He fled to the western provinces and took up with the [[Ouchi clan|Ôuchi]]. In [[1508]] [[Ouchi Yoshioki|Ôuchi Yoshioki]] marched to the capital and reinstated Yoshitane as shôgun. In [[1518]] Yoshioki returned to the western provinces and in [[1520]] Yoshitane was driven from office again, this time by [[Hosokawa Takakuni]]. He went into exile on [[Awaji Island]], and so became known as the Shima-Kûbo (Island shôgun).
