足利義栄 Ashikaga Yoshihide was the 14th shōgun of the Ashikaga shogunate, who held nominal power for a few months in 1568 during the Muromachi period of Japan. He became shōgun three years after the death of his cousin, the 13th shōgun Ashikaga Yoshiteru.**

When Yoshihide became shōgun, he changed his name to Yoshinaga; however, today, he is more conventionally recognized by the name Yoshihide.

Biography

Shortly after having been proclaimed shōgun, Yoshihide died from a contagious disease. In the same month, Oda Nobunaga marched his armies into Kyoto, the capital, and seized control. Nobunaga installed Ashikaga Yoshiaki as the fifteenth shōgun.
