	Before the rise of Mitsuhide, not much is known of the Akechi clan. Their origins trace back to being a branch of the larger Toki clan, itself descended from the {{Wiki\|Seiwa Genji}} and {{Wiki\|Minamoto no Yorimitsu}}. The Toki were the governors of Mino for most of the [[Ashikaga shogunate]], losing most of his properties to [[Saitō Dōsan]]'s {{Wiki\|~~Saito~~ clan}} in 1542. With the fall of the main Toki branch, the Akechi rose to power and Mitsuhide started gaining influence on Japan's politics.<ref name="Wiki" />		Before the rise of Mitsuhide, not much is known of the Akechi clan.
