The is the oldest of the four shinnà Âke, branches of the Imperial Family of Japan which were eligible to succeed to the Chrysanthemum Throne in the order of succession.
The Fushimi-no-miya was founded by Prince Yoshihito, the son of the Northern Court Emperor Sukà Â. As the house was founded by a Northern Pretender, the first three princes are sometimes not recognized as legitimate Fushimi princes.
All of the much later à Âke were branches off the Fushimi-no-miya house, all but one of them being created by sons of Fushimi-no-miya Kuniye.
Unless stated otherwise, each prince is the son of his predecessor.
The sesshu shinnà Âke and à Âke households, along with the kazoku (Japanese peerage), were reduced to commoner status during the American occupation of Japan, in 1947.
This is a family tree of the Fushimi-no-miya of those eligible to succeed to the throne and their ancestors, excluding those who are extinct or demoted to commoners (renounced their imperial status). Numbers provided are given assuming that the Oke are restored.
