was an old province located in the Tōsandō of Japan, which today comprises Gunma Prefecture.〔Nussbaum, Louis-Frédéric. (2005). "''Kōzuke''" in .〕 It is often nicknamed or . Kōzuke and Echigo Province were known as the Jōetsu region. The ancient provincial capital of Takasaki was near modern Maebashi. During the Sengoku period, Kōzuke was controlled variously by Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshin, the late Hōjō clan, and Tokugawa Ieyasu. Since the characters for Kōzuke are more commonly read "Ueno," Gunma Prefecture's Japan Rail stations do not use it as a name prefix, using "Gunma" instead. ==Historical districts== * Gunma Prefecture * * Agatsuma District (吾妻郡) * * Gunma District (群馬郡) * * * Higashigunma District (東群馬郡) - merged with Minamiseta District to become the 2nd incarnation of Seta District (勢多郡) on April 1, 1896 * * * Nishigunma District (西群馬郡) - merged with Kataoka District to become the 2nd incarnation of Gunma District (群馬郡) on April 1, 1896 * * Kanra District (甘楽郡) * * * Kitakanra District (北甘楽郡) - renamed as Kanra District (甘楽郡) on April 1, 1950 * * * Minamikanra District (南甘楽郡) - merged with Midono and Tago Districts to become Tano District (多野郡) on April 1, 1896 * * Kataoka District (片岡郡) - merged with Nishigunma District to become the 2nd incarnation of Gunma District on April 1, 1896 * * Kitagunma District (北群馬郡) - split off from Gunma District on October 1, 1949 * * Midono District (緑野郡) - merged with Minamikanra and Tago Districts to become Tano District on April 1, 1896 * * Nawa District (佐波郡) - merged with Sai District to become Sawa District (佐波郡) on April 1, 1896 * * Nitta District (新田郡) - dissolved * * Ōra District (邑楽郡) * * Sai District (佐波郡) - merged with Nawa District to become Sawa District on April 1, 1896 * * Seta District (勢多郡) * * * Kitaseta District (北勢多郡) - merged into Tone District on April 1, 1896 * * * Minamiseta District (南勢多郡) - merged with Higashigunma District to become the 2nd incarnation of Seta District on April 1, 1896 * * Tago District (多胡郡) - merged with Minamikanra and Midono Districts to become Tano District on April 1, 1896 * * Tone District (利根郡) - absorbed Kitaseta District on April 1, 1896 * * Usui District (碓氷郡) - dissolved * * Yamada District (山田郡) - dissolved 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kōzuke Province」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
