Japan: Tokugawa Yoshinobu (October 28, 1837–November 22, 1913) the 15th and last shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan

Tokugawa Yoshinobu, also known as 'Keiki', was the 15th and last shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan. He was part of a movement which aimed to reform the aging shogunate, but was ultimately unsuccessful.

After resigning in late 1867, he went into retirement, and largely avoided the public eye for the rest of his life.
