'''Nihongi Kurita''' (b. [[2336]] - d. [[2396]]) was the third [[Coordinator]] of the [[Draconis Combine]].
  
 
==History==
 
==History==
While his father [[Tenno Kurita|Tenno]] reigned, the vain and petty Nihongi thought of nothing but succeeding his father as Coordinator. When his aunt [[Omi Kurita]] was killed by [[Principality of Rasalhague|Rasalhagian]] terrorists in December [[2375]], Nihongi encouraged his father's decision to commit ''[[seppuku]]'' a few months later.

From the time he gained the throne in March [[2376]] until his death twenty years later, Nihongi proved to be a weak and lackluster ruler. The position he had coveted so desperately now proved worthless to him, and Nihongi could do little more than petulantly demand obedience from everybody. Unlike his [[Shiro Kurita|legendary grandfather]] or competent father, Nihongi accomplished nothing of note in his entire reign.

Nihongi's sole achievements in life were in the realm of horse-riding and horse-breeding, a pastime which he indulged while neglecting his duties as Coordinator. This indifference aroused concern throughout the Combine, and by November [[2393]] several factions devoted to his removal (peacefully or otherwise) had arisen. Nihongi's more industrious son [[Robert Kurita|Robert]] was among the plotters preparing to kill him, but Nihongi abruptly solved the problem for everybody by falling and breaking his neck while horse-riding. Robert was thus able to mount the throne without resorting to patricide.<ref>''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', pp. 28–29</ref>
