Kingdom of Kibi : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kingdom of Kibi
was a kingdom of fourth century Western Japan that acted as a cultural bridge between the Yamato state and the various kingdoms of the Korean peninsula. The Kingdom of Kibi covered most of what is today Okayama Prefecture. Today, the Kibi Road crosses the plain between Okayama and Soja, what was once the heartland of ''Kibi-no-kuni''. Kibi was strategically located on the inland seaway between Korea and Yamato. The kingdom's strong influence on the Yamato administration, and the presence of Korean noblemen in the government of the ancient kingdom, would cause a chain of events that ended with the disintegration of Kibi. ==Etymology== Though in the modern Japanese language the word ''kibi'' refers to millet, the name of the kingdom ''Kibi'', which appears in the Kojiki and in the Nihonshoki (the oldest written records in Japan), likely has a different origin, which has been lost to time. Furthermore, the Chinese characters used for writing the word, which have been in use for over 1200 years, have nothing to do with millet.
