Saito Family Video


 Here is another video on the Saito and Oda families.  The video covers several topics such as Oda Nobuhide, Oda Nobuyuki, and the conflict between the two sides.  Then it discusses the marriage between Nobunaga and Nohime and the meeting with Saito Dosan at Shotokuji Temple. One key element that people often overlook is the Rokkaku.  It seems that they had some conflict with the Saito and one of the key reasons that Dosan wanted an alliance with Nobunaga so his back was covered just in case things got out of hand between him and the Rokkaku.  The video goes into detail about the chaos in the Oda house and eventually the dispute between Dosan and Yoshitatsu. Again, the main source listed in the video is The Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga.

Nobunaga no tame!
