Akizuki Tanezane (秋月 種実, 1548 – November 16, 1596) was a samurai warrior and daimyo Akizuki clan from Chikuzen Province, son of Akizuki Kiyotane, who was defeated by the Ōtomo clan.[1] in 1564.
Following his father death by Otomo, Akizuki Tanezane sought assistance from the Mōri clan. Following the defeat of the Mōri in northern Kyushu at the hands of the Ōtomo, the Akizuki turned to the Shimazu clan for assistance.
In 1585, Tanezane supported the Shimazu in an offensive against the Ōtomo at the Siege of Iwaya Castle.
In 1586, He and Shimazu Yoshihisa marched to attack Otomo's Tachibana castle.
In 1587, he fought with Shimazu against Toyotomi Hideyoshi in Kyūshū, an island of Japan.[2]
In 1596, Tanezane was succeeded by his son Tanenaga.[2] After the Battle of Sekigahara, Tanenaga was transferred to Takanabe han (in Hyuga, 20,000 koku).
