This is the list of Japanese Eras, the Nengô, from the beginning of the Yamato Period and continuing until the reign of the Meiji Emperor. In this period, a reign consisted of one or more Eras. Beginning with the Meiji Era, each reign corresponds to only one Era. These latter are given on the main Sangoku page, with the other chronology.
The list of Eras is based on Andrew N. Nelson, The Modern Reader's Japanese-English Character Dictionary [Charles E. Tuttle Company, 1987, pp. 1018-1022].
