Chinzei Bugyō , or Defense Commissioner of the West , was the name given to a post created in 1186 to oversee the defense of Kyūshū . At the time , the primary mission of the " Bugyō " was to seek out and eliminate anyone who had supported Minamoto no Yoshitsune over his brother Yoritomo to become Shogun . However , less than a hundred years later , the " Chinzei " ( Western Defense Headquarters ) took on the responsibilities of a true Defense Headquarters , acting as the first line of defense against the Mongols . Over time , the position of " Bugyō " , 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 . The first " Chinzei Bugyō " was Amano Tōkage , who was succeeded soon afterwards by Nakawara Nobufusa , who was sent to suppress resistance in Kyūshū . He established the Chinzei at Dazaifu , where he received all the Shogun ' s orders for Kyūshū ; local lords could not be trusted to obey local constables , and so the Kyūshū Tandai ( as the " Chinzei Bugyō " was sometimes known ) had to act as intermediary between Kyūshū and the capital at Kamakura .

Uraga Dock Company History . Uraga Dock Company was founded by Enomoto Takeaki in 1869 . A shipyard had already existed in Uraga from the end of the Edo period . When Commodore Perry ' s flagship anchored off Uraga in 1854 , one of the officials of the Tokugawa shogunate who boarded the American vessel was a trained shipwright , Nakajima Saburosuke . His observation of the ship ' s interior enabled him to deduce the details of its design and construction , and after the departure of Perry back to the United States , the government ordered him to start construction of a three - masted barque , called the " Hōō maru " . He subsequently participated in the repair of the Dutch - built " Kanrin maru " , during which time he constructed the first dry dock built in Japan in 1859 . However , the Tokugawa government decided to establish its own shipyards at nearby Yokosuka , and the Uraga facilities went out of business in 1876 . Nakajima died during the Boshin War of the Meiji restoration fighting on the Tokugawa side . After the establishment of the Meiji government , his former colleagues Enomoto Takeaki and Arai Ikunosuke gained important positions in the new administration , and supported the establishment of a modern shipyard on the foundation established by Nakajima . The new facility was inaugurated in 1897 , and faced an immediate crisis when Tokyo - based Ishikawajima Harima opened a rival facility the following year and started to dump prices in an effort to destroy its competition . Uraga Dock Company managed to buy out Ishikawajima in 1902 . In 1907 , Uraga Dock Company launched its first destroyer for the Imperial Japanese Navy , the " Nagatsuki " . Over its subsequent history , the dockyards at Uraga constructed over 1000 vessels , including ferries , passenger liner s , training vessels , and warships of various sizes . Numerous vessels were also produced for the export market . By 1919 , Uraga Dock Company was considered one of the largest and best equipped private shipyards in the world . Subsidiary companies were established in Yokkaichi , Mie and in Tsingtao . Uraga Dock Company was also characterized by its organized labor force , one of the earliest in Japan , which went on strike in 1905 - 1907 , 1910 - 1911 , and in 1915 . In post war Japan , Uraga Dock Company was acquired by the Sumitomo group in 1969 . It was modernized extensively on several occasions , but increasing competitive pressures from overseas ship builders forced Sumitomo to close down operations in 2003 .
