Iwakura Oda
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Iwakura Oda a semi-famous japanese clan originating during the earlier years of the Sengoku period of the 16th century. The Iwakura Oda were situated within the province of Owari, just like the other Oda clan. The main figure of the Iwakura Oda was Oda Nobutomo, the uncle of the famous (now young) Oda Nobunaga. Nobutomo, who at the time had planned on assassinating Nobunaga due to the fact that Nobunaga had now succeeded as head of the Oda, executed the Oda clan governor Shiba Yoshimune for revealing this information. Following the year of 1555, the Iwakura clan met their extinction through Nobunaga's attack of Kiyosu Castle, forcing Oda Nobutomo to commit suicide.
