Mōri Terumoto
Mōri Terumoto (1553–1625) was a Japanese daimyo who ruled much of western Honshu from Hiroshima, which he founded. One of the five regents appointed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, he was the nominal commander of the western army at Sekigahara in 1600, though he stayed at Osaka Castle. After the defeat Tokugawa Ieyasu reduced his lands to the provinces of Suō and Nagato, which became the Chōshū domain.
