Biography[]

Sanada Nobuyuki was originally a hostage of the Tokugawa, but married Honda Tadakatsu's daughter and in 1600 he sided fully to the Tokugawa cause[1]. This meant that the Sanada family split in two, his father and brother Sanada Yukimura stayed loyal to the Toyotomi in Toyotomi Hideyoshi's memory.[2] After the Sieges of Osaka Castle, in 1622 Nobuyuki received the fief of Matsuhiro in Shinano worth 100,000 koku.[3]
