From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tenshō (天正) was a Japanese era after Genki and before Bunroku and spanned from 1573 to 1592. Reigning emperors were Ōgimachi and Go-Yōzei.

Because of various wars, on 7th month 28th day Genki 4 (1573), the era became Tenshō

The name was suggested by Oda Nobunaga; From a Chinese classic Lao Zi, 清静者為 (Those who are at peace with nature brings all under Heaven into its correct pattern)
