Wrong guess, I was thinking of [this guy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terauchi_Masatake). But now that I’ve thought about it, my direct question is : Are you Japanese ? If yes, the following IQ is : “Were you at Sekigahara ?” ---

But now that I’ve thought about it, my direct question is : Are you Japanese ? > > If yes, the following IQ is : “Were you at Sekigahara?” I thought of him, too, but Emperor Taisho works, too, as he was the de jure ruler of the entire empire from 1912 until 1926, which includes rule over the recently annexed Korea. (Granted, he was pretty much impotent throughout his reign, politically and mentally, but he was still technically ruler, even if he ruled through a Resident-General). So I am not required to grant a DQ. Regardless, I know you know who it is so, yes, I am Tokugawa Ieyasu first Ogosho of the Tokugawa Bakufu. ETA: That was lots of fun :), maybe you can start a new round in another thread **Kobal2**? ---
