Okada Domain (Japan)
Okada Domain (岡田藩, Okada-han) was a feudal domain under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo period Japan, in what is now western Okayama Prefecture. It controlled a small portion of central Bitchū Province and was centered around Okada jin'ya in what is now the Mabi neighborhood of the city of Kurashiki, Okayama. It was ruled throughout its history by a branch of the Itō clan. The location of the jin'ya changed several times, and the domain as also known as Kawabe Domain (川辺藩) after one of these locations where it was sited in the Genroku period (1688-1704). It was dissolved in the abolition of the han system in 1871 and is now part of Okayama Prefecture.[1][2][3]
