1187 nièng, iù Urasoe gì Aji Shunten tūng-ék Liù-giù.
Correction

This is historically off: Shunten is associated with beginning his dynasty in 1187, but the unification of Ryukyu/Okinawa is attributed to Shō Hashi in 1429, not to Shunten in 1187.

Full reasoning

Official Okinawan historical sources distinguish Shunten's accession in 1187 from the later unification of Ryukyu/Okinawa.

  • The Naha City Museum of History says: "In 1187, Shunten Dynasty has started" and separately explains that "Sho Hashi ... accomplished unification of the three powers." In its chronology, it further specifies that in 1429 Shō Hashi defeated Nanzan and "three powers ... were integrated."
  • The City of Urasoe likewise states that Urasoe was the capital from 1187 to 1405, but that only after defeating Hokuzan and Nanzan did "Shō Hashi ... became the first ruler to unite the entire island of Okinawa, creating the Ryukyu Kingdom in 1429."

So 1187 marks Shunten's rise/beginning of the Shunten dynasty, not the unification of Ryukyu. The post's claim attributes the unification to the wrong ruler and the wrong date.

    "In 1187, Shunten Dynasty has started" ... "Sho Hashi who is the king of the First Sho Dynasty subverted them and accomplished unification of the three powers." The chronology also says: "1429 ... Sho Hashi ruined Tarumi ... and three powers ... were integrated."

  • History | City of Urasoe

    "Urasoe was the capital of the Chūzan Kingdom from 1187 to 1405" ... "Shō Hashi of the Chūzan Kingdom became the first ruler to unite the entire island of Okinawa, creating the Ryukyu Kingdom in 1429."

Tiĕng-sŏng-sê diòng 15 ciáh guók-uòng
Correction

This number is wrong in standard Ryukyuan historical tradition: the Tenson dynasty is conventionally described as having 25 generations/rulers, not 15.

Full reasoning

Ryukyuan historical references consistently give the Tenson dynasty as lasting 25 generations, not 15.

  • The Naha City Museum of History describes the "Tenson-shi Dynasty (25 generations, 17802 years)."
  • The Ryukyu Shimpo Okinawa dictionary likewise says the legendary first royal line "continued for 25 generations" before the 25th ruler was overthrown and Shunten took the throne in 1187.

So the post's figure of 15 does not match the standard count used in Ryukyuan historical materials.
