Toshimichi Okubo

Toshimichi Okubo (大久保 利通) is the 4th Chancellor of the Realm of the State of Teiko. Okubo's liberal policies on trade and industry which allowed foreigners to open large industrial complexes in the country draw the ire of many nationalists and conservatives. In 1907, he became the first chancellor to be assassinated while in office after a group of radical samurais attacked his caravan.
