Kōō (Nanboku-chō period)
Kōō (康応), also romanized as Kō-ō, was a Japanese era name (年号, nengō, lit. year name) of the Northern Court during the Nanboku-chō period after Kakei and before Meitoku. This period started in February 1389 and ended in March 1390.[1] The pretender in Kyoto was Emperor Go-Komatsu (後小松天皇, Go-Komatsu-tennō).[2] Go-Komatsu's Southern Court rival in Yoshino during this time was Emperor Go-Kameyama (後亀山天皇, Go-Kameyama-tennō).[3]
