The Ōnin War was a major uprising in which "shugo-daimyo" fought each other. During this and other wars of the time, "kuni ikki", or provincial uprisings, took place as locally powerful warriors sought independence from the "shugo-daimyo". The deputies of the "shugo-daimyo", living in the provinces, seized the opportunity to strengthen their position. At the end of the fifteenth century, those "shugo-daimyo" who succeeded remained in power. Those who had failed to exert control over their deputies fell from power and were replaced by a new class, the "sengoku-daimyo", who arose from the ranks of the "shugodai" and "jizamurai".
