Shogun
After the decline of Heian Japan in the late 1000s the Taira and Minamoto clans emerged. They fought and in 1185 the Minamoto won. The Minamoto didn't get rid of imperial authority in Japan and instead assigned a clan leader called shogun. This military governor resided in Kamakura and the imperial court stayed in Kyoto (T+E p400).
