La Tosa -nom oficial recollit per l'Institut Cartogràfic de Catalunya-, o la Tosa d'Alp, com molts anomenen aquest cim, és una muntanya de 2.536,4 metres situada a l'est de la serra del Moixeró, al límit entre la Cerdanya i el Berguedà. Pel fet que al capdamunt hi conflueixen els territoris de 4 municipis (Alp, Urús, Das i Bagà) la seva punta també es coneix com a Pedró dels Quatre Batlles.

 

A l'esquerra de la plana podem veure la població d'Alp, una mica més a la dreta Das i al centre l'aeròdrom de La Cerdanya..

Matsue Castle is located on a hill overlooking Shinjiko Lagoon. It is one of the 12 existing donjons and acquired the National Treasure status in 2015 on par with those in Himeji, Matsumoto, Inuyama and Hikone.

 

During the Edo period (1600-1868), Japan used to be a patchwork of more than 300 Hans. Han (藩) is a domain ruled autonomously by a Daimyou (大名 local Samurai ruler). Each Han was allowed to have a castle.

Daimyou that did not have blood ties to, nor were hereditary vassals of, the Tokugawa were called Tozama (外様) Daimyou. The Horio and the Kyougoku were Tozama Daimyou.

 

The Tokugawa did not fully trust Tozama Daimyou and tried to weaken or abolish them when possible. They were often relocated to remote locations with unfavourable soil conditions. The Tokugawa often hired Ninja to monitor their activities.

It is supposed that the Matsudaira rule of Izumo was intended to keep an eye on Tozama Daimyou in the western Honshu Island, the most notably, the Mouri in Yamaguchi.

 

As the Tokugawa feared, Meiji Restoration was led by the alliance of the four Hans of Tozama Daimyou, namely, Choushuu (長州, Yamaguchi), Satsuma (薩摩, Kagoshima), Tosa (土佐, Kouchi) and Hizen (肥前, Saga).

Matsue Han first resisted the rebel but defeated by Choushuu and changed side when the Imperial House in Kyoto sided with the alliance.

Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three. They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.

Tosa de Mar - Cataluña - España .

Tot baixant de de la Tosa d'Alp, a la Cerdanya, vaig veure aquest jovenet còlit gris (oenanthe oenanthe) agafat a un ferro.

=============================================

 

I saw this northern wheathear (oenanthe oenanthe) at about 2500 m. above sea level, near the Tosa d'Alp mountaintop. It's a young bird, still with it's first feathers.

Iwasaki Yatarou (岩崎弥太郎 1835-1885) was the founder of the Mitsubishi conglomerate. He came from Tosa (土佐), present-day Kouchi prefecture, located on the southern coast of the Shikoku island.

 

He established friendship with Meiji government officials from the same prefecture and started shipping business and earned huge profits capitalising on the connections. He was a typical government crony.

 

Meiji Restoration in 1868 was led by young Samurais from the domains (藩 Han) in the four prefectures in southern Japan, namely, Kagoshima, Yamaguchi, Kouchi, and Saga. They are supposed to have had business connections with, and political influences from, the Western countries such as USA, UK and France before they started the de-facto revolution.

 

Young revolutionaries from southern Japan became old politicians, and their families and affiliates maintained political and business presences for generations.

Iwasaki's descendants expanded his business to form the Mitsubishi conglomerate. Iwasaki Mansion was constructed by his first son.

 

Another example of government crony was Matsukata Koujirou of the National Western Art Museum, who was a son of a prime minister who came from Kagoshima.

Canadian Pacific SD60 6236, SD33C-ECO 5020 and SD40-2 5966 move a manifest west through the annoyingly-fenced Watertown Sub right of way in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin on a pleasant summer afternoon. The last time I saw a train at this spot without the fence, the leader was also an SD60- but still in Soo Line paint.

CP 7043 leads 149 on the Watertown Subdivision on a nice February morning.

Sailing through Tosa with Roseport coke, a pair of CIT EMDs bust through the hazy Menomonee Valley with a pickup to make at Muskego Yard.

The Tosa's temperament is marked by patience, composure, boldness and courage. He is normally a tranquil, quiet, and obedient dog, with a calm but vigilant demeanor. With a stately manner and robust build, they were formerly bred for fighting, but are now used as watchdogs.
