The Ansei Purge (安政の大獄 Ansei no taigoku) was a multi-year event in Japanese history of the Edo period between 1858 and 1860, during which the Tokugawa shogunate imprisoned, executed, or exiled those who did not support its authority and foreign trade policies.
History
The Ansei Purge was ordered by Ii Naosuke on behalf of the Bakufu. It was carried out in an effort to quell opposition to trade treaties with the United States, Russia, Great Britain, France and the Netherlands, particularly under the U.S. - Japan Treaty of Amity and Commerce. The crackdown also targeted those who opposed the succession of Tokugawa Iesada and the kōbu gattai or the policy that attempted to unite the imperial court and the shogunate. Some of the victims also included the sonno joi, the group who opposed the Noasuke's appointment of Tokugawa Iemochi over Hitotsubashi Keiki, the candidate of the Mitō clan, which was one of the three branches of the Tokugawa family.
Over 100 influential people were victims of the purge.
