Change of era

*; 1278: The new era name was created to mark an event or a number of events. The previous era ended and a new one commenced in "Kenji" 4.

Events of the "Kōan" era

* "Kōan 10", in the 10th month (1287): In the 14th year of Go-Uda"-tennō"'s reign (後宇多天皇14年), the emperor abdicated; and the succession (‘‘senso’’) was received by his cousin. Shortly thereafter, Emperor Fushimi is said to have acceded to the throne (‘‘sokui’’). [Titsingh, p. 269; Varley, p. 44. [A distinct act of "senso" is unrecognized prior to Emperor Tenji; and all sovereigns except Jitō, Yōzei, Go-Toba, and Fushimi have "senso" and "sokui" in the same year until the reign of Go-Murakami.] ]
