Emperor Toba

Emperor Toba (???? Toba Tenn?) (February 24, 1103 - July 20, 1156) was the 74th imperial ruler of Japan, according to the traditional order of succession. He reigned from 1107 to 1123, but actual power was held by the "retired" Emperor Shirakawa in a process known as cloistered rule. After Shirakawa died in 1129, Toba also became a cloistered emperor. His personal name was Munehito (??)
