It controlled a small portion of eastern Bitchū Province and was centered around Niwase jin'ya in what is now Kita-ku, Okayama. It was ruled for most its history by a branch of the Itakura clan. It was dissolved in the abolition of the han system in 1871 and is now part of Okayama Prefecture.[1][2][3][4]Inukai Tsuyoshi, who became Prime Minister of Japan, was from Niwase Domain.
