The Imperial seats during the
Nanboku-ch?
period were in relatively close proximity, but geographically distinct. They were conventionally identified as:
During the
Meiji period
, an imperial decree dated March 3, 1911, established that the legitimate reigning monarchs of this period were the direct descendants of
Emperor Go-Daigo
through
Emperor Go-Murakami
, whose Southern Court
(
南朝
,
nanch?
)
had been established in exile in
Yoshino
, near Nara.

Until the end of the
Edo period
, the militarily superior pretender-emperors supported by the
Ashikaga shogunate
had been mistakenly incorporated in imperial chronologies despite the undisputed fact that the
Imperial Regalia
were not in their possession.

This illegitimate
Northern Court
(
北朝
,
hokuch?
)
had been established in
Kyoto
by
Ashikaga Takauji
.
