Japanese: 672年の壬申の乱で大海人皇子（天武天皇）に属して戦い、近江方面の諸将の筆頭として連戦連勝し、最大の功を立てた。
English: His hereditary title is described as 'Muraji' throughout the "Nihonshoki" (Chronicles of Japan), whereas it simply says 'MURAKUNI no Oyori' in July's article from "Shoku Nihongi" (Chronicle of Japan Continued).
Japanese: 『日本書紀』では一貫して「連」姓で記されるが、『続日本紀』大宝元年（701年）7月壬申条に「村国小依」とある。
English: Therefore, some suggests that he was only given the title, Muraji, for his great achievements during the Jinshin War.
Japanese: したがって、当時は姓を持たず、壬申の乱の功績で連を授かったとする説がある。
English: When Prince Oama made the decision to raise an army, Oyori was in Yoshino with him.

Japanese: 男依は駅馬でとって返し、26日に伊勢国朝明郡の郡家のそばで大海人皇子に成功を報じた。
English: This made it impossible for Emperor Kobun who was near Omi Palace to have any contact with eastern provinces and as a result the military power of East was returned to Prince Oama.
Japanese: これにより近江宮にいた弘文天皇は東国との連絡を遮断され、東国の兵力は大海人皇子の手に帰すことになった。
English: When Prince Oama arrived to Fuwano-seki checkpoint and gained the control of Mino Province and the eastern region, he divided his army into two groups which consisted of tens of thousands of soldiers; one was sent to Wa (Yamato Province) and the other was sent to Omi area.
Japanese: 不破関に入って美濃国と東国全般を勢力下におさめた大海人皇子は、7月2日に軍をそれぞれ数万の二手にわけ、一方を倭（大和国）に向かわせ、他方を近江国に投入した。
English: "Nihonshoki" (Chronicles of Japan) does not specify him as a commander-in-chief, and therefore some scholars believe that it was Prince Takechi who had this role.
Japanese: 『日本書紀』は男依をこの軍の主将とは明言せず、総司令官の役目は高市皇子にあったと考える学者もいる。
English: However, when it mentions about the troop of Omi area later in the book, it only says 'Oyori and others' and does not give any specific names.
Japanese: しかし、以後の記述で近江方面の軍をさすときに、書紀は「男依等」と記し、他の将を挙げない。

English: It is stated in the Nihonshoki (Chronicles of Japan) that although there were no specific names given, those with distinctive merits were selected on December 4 and given the title Shosen or higher, and therefore Oyori probably received the same or higher title as well.
Japanese: 日本書紀は戦後行賞の記事で個人名をあげないが、12月4日に勲功ある人を選んで冠位を増し、小山位以上をあたえたとする記事があるので、男依が受けた位もこれ以上ではあっただろう。

Japanese: 『続日本紀』大宝元年(701年)7月21日条は、先朝が壬申の論功をおこなったときに村国小依が120戸の封を賞として与えられたことを伝える。
English: However, despite of his contributions and achievements Oyori was never given an important post in the Imperial Court since he was from a local ruling family.
Japanese: だが、地方豪族出身である男依らが、功によって中央の要職を占めることはなかった。
English: It is assumed that although their achievements were worth the title, it was not accepted to give the same title as dominant nobilities to someone from a lower ranking family, and therefore the rank 'ge' was created.
Japanese: 地方出身で出自が低い者を中央の貴族と同列にするわけにはいかないが、彼等の功績は高く顕彰したいという考慮から、「外」という位が作られたと推測されている。
English: On March 8, 716, his son Shiganomaro was given a rice field for the achievements of his father, MURAKUNI no Muraji Oyori.
Japanese: 霊亀2年（716年）3月8日に、村国連小依の功績によって息子の志我麻呂が田を与えられた。
English: Oyori's achievements created the path for his descendants like MURAKUNI no Shigamaro to live his life as a lower ranking government official in the Imperial Court.
Japanese: 村国連志我麻呂をはじめとする男依の子孫は、おそらく男依の殊功によって中央下級官人貴族としての道を歩むこととなった。
English: Oyori's grandchildren MURAKUNI no Shimanushi, MURAKUNI no Mushimaro and MURAKUNI no Oi (their relationships to Oyori are unknown) appear as government officials in the Shoku Nihongi (Chronicle of Japan Continued).
Japanese: 男依の孫に当たる村国島主や、村国連虫麻呂・村国連子老（いずれも男依との関係は不明）らが、続日本紀などに官人として記載されている。
English: However, when FUJIWARA no Nakamaro's War broke out, they were accused of being on FUJIWARA no Nakamaro (EMI no Oshikatsu) side, and thus were killed during the war (MURAKUNI no Shimanushi) and were deprived of their court ranks.
Japanese: しかし彼らは藤原仲麻呂（恵美押勝）の与党として天平宝字8年（764年）の藤原仲麻呂の乱で殺されたり（嶋主）、官位を剥奪された。
English: Although it turned out that they were innocent and their court ranks were returned, this incident led them to their downfall later on.

Japanese: ちなみに、その一部は現在海上自衛隊でも使われている（空母「赤城」の「あ」と「き」が、護衛艦「たかつき」の「か」と「き」として継承されている）。
English: Although Ito may be minor as a military man, it was only Ito and Sukeshige MAKINO, the last lord of Tanabe Domain of Tango Province, who were granted the peerage among people from Maizuru City, and thus Ito is said to be respected as a rare great figure in the district.
Japanese: 海軍軍人としてはマイナーだが、舞鶴市出身で爵位を受けたのは最後の丹後田辺藩主牧野弼成（すけしげ）と伊藤の2人だけであり、地元では稀代の偉人として尊敬されているという。

English: He fought on Prince Oama's side during Jinshin War in 672, and gained achievements.
Japanese: 672年の壬申の乱で大海人皇子（天武天皇）について戦い、功があった。
English: Because the branches of Wanibe clan are found in wide regions such as Owari Province, Mino Province and Omi Province, Kimite's birthplace is unknown.
Japanese: 和珥部氏は、和珥氏の属民で尾張国、美濃国、近江国といった各地に分布しており、君手の出身地は不明である。
English: When Prince Oama made the decision to raise an army, Kimite was in Yoshino with him.
Japanese: 壬申の乱で大海人皇子が挙兵を決断したとき、君手は吉野にいた皇子のそばにいた。
English: On June 22, two days before the prince took any action, he sent MUTSUGE no Hiro, MURAKUNI no Oyori, and WANIBE no Kimite to Mino Province.
Japanese: 皇子自身か行動をおこす2日前、6月22日に、和珥部君手は村国男依、身毛広と3人で美濃国に先行するよう命じられた。

Japanese: 日本書紀には12月4日に勲功ある人を選んで冠位を増し、小山位以上をあたえたとする記事があるので、君手が受けた位もこれ以上ではあっただろう。
English: Also, he was given the property with 80 households on July 21, 701 ("Shoku Nihongi" (Chronicle of Japan Continued)).

Japanese: 文武天皇元年（697年）7月9日に、勤大壱だった君手は直広壱を与えられた。
English: The article from the "Shoku Nihongi" (Chronicle of Japan Continued) explains the reason for receiving such an reward as simply 'contributions in Jinshin War'; however, judging from other articles in the same book, such awards were usually received after death, and therefore this was probably the case for Kimite as well.
Japanese: これを伝える『続日本紀』の記事は「壬申の功臣」としか理由を伝えないが、他の例で壬申の功臣への賜位記事は死亡時の追贈であるから、この場合も同じと考えられる。
