''Chinzei Bugyô'', or Defense Commissioner of the West, was the name given to a post created in [[1186]] to oversee the defense of [[Kyushu|Kyûshû]]. At the time, the primary mission of the ''bugyô'' was to seek out and eliminate anyone who had supported [[Minamoto no Yoshitsune]] over his brother [[Minamoto no Yoritomo|Yoritomo]] to become [[Shogun]], along with the remainders of the [[Taira clan]]. However, less than a hundred years later, the ''Chinzei-fu'' (Western Defense Headquarters) took on the responsibilities of a true Defense Headquarters, acting as the first line of defense against the [[Mongol Invasions|Mongols]]. Over time, the position of ''bugyô'', the head of the Defense Headquarters, became known as ''Chinzei Shugo'' or ''Chinzei Tandai''. This was but one of several similar posts established across the country.
