rdfs:comment | - The Battle of Itsukushima (厳島の戦い) is one of the monumental battles in Motonari's career. Despite facing an army approximately four times larger than his own, Motonari was able to win the conflict with a mere 3,000. Many historians accept the possibility that the Mōri would have been wiped out if they had lost the battle, thus leading it to be informally dubbed "Motonari's Okehazama".

abstract | - The Battle of Itsukushima (厳島の戦い) is one of the monumental battles in Motonari's career. Despite facing an army approximately four times larger than his own, Motonari was able to win the conflict with a mere 3,000. Many historians accept the possibility that the Mōri would have been wiped out if they had lost the battle, thus leading it to be informally dubbed "Motonari's Okehazama". The battle is also historically significant for Itsukushima, as the island is heralded as a holy land in which "the gods rest" and no living being is allowed to die. It is one of the few battles recorded to have taken place on the island itself. The giant torii gates have been destroyed many times, but the ones currently standing today were funded by Taira no Kiyomori.
