Originally, it was normal to enthronement to his first prince, but at this time the imperial line was divided into two families, and he was alternately enthroned to the emperor.
This may be the reason why the existence of five emperors was created.
From the standpoint of Emperor Go-Nijo, it must have been a feeling of oppression from a crowded train. Feeling.
Let's introduce it in a little more detail.
Jimyoin line and Daikakuji line?
The 88th Emperor Sagano!
Emperor Gosaga Is 22 years old In just four years, he became the emperor, but in just four years, his two-year-old child, Go-Fukakusa Emperor Transferred to.
After transferring the throne and becoming Emperor Saga, he changed to a young emperor " Chiten " Kimi " Cloister rule " let's start doing ....
Chiten no Kimi is the emeritus or emperor who has the real power of affairs and is the de facto monarch.

Daikakuji line is "Emperor Go-Nijo" And "Emperor Go-Daigo" The Emperor Go-Daigo split into politics " Kenmu " New Government " let's start doing ....
However, this new Kenmu Restoration collapsed in two and a half years, and the first shogun of the Muromachi Shogunate, Ashikaga Takauji , after both destroyed the Kamakura Shogunate. Conflict with Mr., Emperor Go-Daigo escapes to Yoshino (currently Nara) and a new imperial court "Southern Court" Opened.

Summary
"There were five emeritus for one emperor"
If you just listen to it, you will feel a lot of intimidation.
However, in reality, instead of the young emperor, his fathers were in control as "chiten no kimi".
As his father, he wanted to enthrone his own prince and establish a "cloister rule" himself.
Then, there was a conflict between the two families, and the situation was that the emperor took turns, so the emeritus was in a bargain sale state.
It's surprising that the shogun of the Kamakura Shogunate, famous for Genji, has become a member of the Emperor's family.
