The Urakami clan was a Japanese clan that was settled at Bizen Province during the Sengoku Period of the 16th century.
The death of Urakami Norimune in 1502 resulted in Matsuda Motokatsu seizing the opportunity to lead a full-scale assault on the Urakami. A major retainer of the Urakami was Ukita Yoshiie, who led 300 troops in the attack against the Matsuda clan, during which the Urakami were allied with the Ukita.
Famous quotes containing the word clan:
“We cannot think of a legitimate argument why ... whites and blacks need be affected by the knowledge that an aggregate difference in measured intelligence is genetic instead of environmental.... Given a chance, each clan ... will encounter the world with confidence in its own worth and, most importantly, will be unconcerned about comparing its accomplishments line-by-line with those of any other clan. This is wise ethnocentricism.”
—Richard Herrnstein (1930–1994)
