Saijō Domain
Administrative division in southwestern Japan during the Edo period (1636-1871) / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saijō Domain (西条藩, Saijō-han) was a feudal domain under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo period Japan, in what is now eastern Ehime Prefecture on the island of Shikoku. It was centered around Saijō jin'ya, and was ruled throughout most of its history by a cadet branch of the Kii Tokugawa clan. Saijō Domain was dissolved in the abolition of the han system in 1871 and is now part of Ehime Prefecture.[1][2][3]
