The remains of Tsuwano Castle

The Tsuwano Domain (津和野藩 Tsuwano-han?) was a Japanese domain of the Edo period. It was associated with Iwami Province in modern-day Shimane Prefecture.1

In the han system, Tsuwano was a political and economic abstraction based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields.2 In other words, the domain was defined in terms of kokudaka, not land area.3 This was different than the feudalism of the West.
