The 6th shikken of the Kamakura shogunate. Son of Hojo Shigetoki of the Gokurakuji branch. He became regent in 1256 when the 5th shikken Tokiyori resigned due to illness. However, Tokiyori retained real power even after taking vows, and Nagatoki governed under his guidance. His tenure saw relative political stability, though the regent's authority was limited under tokuso dominance. He died of illness at 35 in 1264. Known for his mild temperament, he maintained the traditions of the Gokurakuji branch inherited from his father. He also served with distinction as Rokuhara Tandai, maintaining order in Kyoto.
