Tottori Domain (鳥取藩, Tottori-han) was a feudal domain under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo period Japan, in what is now Tottori Prefecture on the island of Honshu. It controlled all of Inaba Province and virtually all of Hōki Province was centered around Tottori Castle, and was ruled throughout its history by a branch of the Ikeda clan. Tottori Domain was dissolved in the abolition of the han system in 1871 and is now part of Tottori Prefecture.[1][2][3] Tottori Domain had two sub-domains, Shikano Domain (鹿奴藩) and Wakasa Domain (若桜藩). In addition, the two branches of the Arao clan, who served as hereditary karō of the clan and castellans of Yonago Castle (15,000 koku) and Kurayoshi Jin'ya (12,000 koku) both had kokudaka equivalents to that of daimyō.
