Events of the Bun'ei era[edit source]
- March 6, 1274 (Bun'ei 11, 26th day of the 1st month): In the 15th year of Kameyama-tennōTemplate:'s reign (亀山天皇15年), the emperor abdicated; and the succession (senso) was received by his cousin.[3]
- May 4, 1274 (Bun'ei 11, 26th day of the 3rd month): Emperor Go-Uda is said to have acceded to the throne (sokui).[4] The retired Emperor Kameyama continued to exercise power as cloistered emperor.
- November 19, 1274 (Bun'ei 11, 20th day of the 10th month): Battle of Bun'ei -- Kublai Khan's Mongol forces land at Hakata Bay near Fukuoka in Kyūshū. After landing and some armed skirmishes, the invaders withdraw to spend the night on shipboard. That night, a storm sinks several ships, and the fleet retreats to Korea rather than pressing their initial advantage.[5] In the course of the day's fighting, the Hakozaki Shrine was burned to the ground.[6] Nihon Ōdai Ichiran explains that the invaders were defeated because they lacked arrows.[7]
