is a special ward located in central Tokyo, Japan. In English, it is called Chiyoda City.〔"(Profile )." ''City of Chiyoda''. Retrieved on December 28, 2008.〕
Chiyoda consists of the Imperial Palace and a surrounding radius of about a kilometer. As of May 2015, the ward has an estimated population of 54,462 and a population density of 4,670 people per km², making it by far the least populated of the special wards. The total area is 11.66 km², of which the Imperial Palace, Hibiya Park, National Museum of Modern Art, and Yasukuni Shrine take up approximately 2.6 km², or 22% of the total area.
Often called the "political center" of the country,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=PRAY FOR TOKYO: CHIYODA )〕 Chiyoda, literally meaning "field of a thousand generations", inherited the name from the Chiyoda Castle (the other name for Edo Castle, today's Imperial Palace). With the seat of the Emperor in the Imperial Palace at the ward's center, many government institutions, such as the National Diet, Prime Minister's Official Residence, and Supreme Court, are also located in Chiyoda, as are Tokyo landmarks such as Yasukuni Shrine, Tokyo Station, and the Budokan. Akihabara, a district known for being an otaku cultural center and a shopping district for computer goods, is also located in Chiyoda, as are fifteen embassies.
==History==
The Chiyoda ward was created on March 15, 1947 by the unification of Kanda Ward (the northeast corner of present-day Chiyoda, west of Akihabara) and Kōjimachi Ward (comprising the rest of Chiyoda). It has been a site of a number of historical events.
*In 1860, the assassination of Ii Naosuke took place outside the Sakurada Gate of the Imperial Palace.
*In 1932, assassins attacked and killed prime minister Inukai Tsuyoshi.
*In 1936, an attempted coup d'état, the February 26 Incident, occurred.
*In 1960, Socialist Party leader Inejirō Asanuma was assassinated in Hibiya Hall.
*In 1995, members of Aum Shinrikyo carried out the Sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway.
