Where was the Hashiba power base, away from which Ieyasu was relocated to Kanto?

  • Osaka

  • Kyoto

  • Edo

  • Nara

Answer

Osaka was the Hashiba power base. In 1582, Hashiba had defeated his rival, the Oda clan. As a result, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was granted the title of Shogun and Osaka became the power base for the Hashiba clan. Ieyasu Tokugawa was relocated to Kanto as part of a political strategy to reduce the threat posed by the Hashiba clan.
