三好氏
The son of Rokkaku Sadayori, Yoshikata fought in many of the battles for control of the Kyoto area during this period. In 1549, he became allied with Hosokawa Harumoto against Miyoshi Chōkei, and succeeded his father as head of the family in 1552. After a number of victories against the Miyoshi, the tides turned; Yoshikata and his Hosokawa allies in service of the "shōgun" Ashikaga Yoshiteru began to experience a string of defeats. In 1558, the "shōgun" reconciled his differences with the Miyoshi clan, putting an end to the conflict.
