Background History:

Sanada Nobuyuki (1566 – November 12, 1658) was a prominent samurai from the Sengoku period, the elder son of Sanada Masayuki and the older brother of the legendary Sanada Yukimura. Known for his loyalty and strategic acumen, Nobuyuki played a key role in the Siege of Osaka (1614-1615), where despite his personal connection to his brother Yukimura, he sided with the Tokugawa forces as the family’s loyalty was tested.

After the siege, Nobuyuki earned high regard from Tokugawa Ieyasu, who recognized his honor and military capabilities. In 1622, he became the first lord of the Matsushiro Domain, where he ruled until his death at the age of 92. His life is seen as a transition from the chaotic Sengoku era to the more stable Edo period.
