德川

Rfv-sense "(～幕府) (historical) Tokugawa shogunate". Can 德川 really be used by itself in this way? —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 21:44, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

Here's a quote where I suppose you could say 德川 is short for 德川幕府:

德川的和平盛世與儒學的興起,大大改變軍事思想及其運用。[1] In fact, that quote is from a book titled 易學對德川日本的影響, and you could argue that 德川 in the title is also short for "Tokugawa shogunate". It certainly doesn't refer to a Korean city or the generic surname Tokugawa. Richwarm88 (talk) 00:10, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

See [2] for more examples, like in the sentence 第一阶段是德川初期（1603—1691）。 The time period makes it clear that 德川 refers to the shogunate, not any specific person.  --Lambiam 13:45, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

This should be cited. @Suzukaze-c, please check if the quotes work. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 03:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
