Date Munemoto

Date Munemoto

Count Date Munemoto (伊達宗基?) (August 24, 1866 – January 27, 1917) was a Japanese daimyo of the late Edo period, who became a peer during the Meiji era. He was the last ruler of the Sendai Domain.

Born the fourth son of Date Yoshikuni, Munemoto received family headship in 1868, following the defeat of the Ōuetsu Reppan Dōmei in the Boshin War. Munemoto thus became lord of the Sendai domain, which had lost well over half of its landholdings (reduced from 620,000 to 280,000 koku). He remained lord of Sendai until 1869, when he was made its imperial governor. In 1870, he yielded this position to his adoptive brother Date Muneatsu, but retained family headship.

In 1884, Munemoto was created count in the new Japanese peerage system.
