What title did Nobunaga's successor Toyotomi Hideyoshi never hold?

  • Daimyo

  • Shogun

  • Kampaku

  • Tenka-bito

Answer

The title of **Shogun**, the supreme military ruler of Japan, eluded Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the formidable successor of the legendary Oda Nobunaga. Despite his remarkable achievements in consolidating power and expanding territories, Hideyoshi never formally assumed the title. Nobunaga, himself having never been a shogun, may have set an unconventional precedent for his heir.
