Provinces of Japan
Before the modern prefecture system was established, the islands of Japan were divided into tens of ''kuni'' (国, countries), usually known in English as provinces.〔Nussbaum, Louis-Frédéric. (2005). "Provinces and prefectures" in .〕 Each province was divided into ''gun'' (郡, districts, earlier called ''kōri'').
==History==
The provinces were originally established by Ritsuryō as both administrative units and geographic regions.
In the late Muromachi period, however, their function was gradually supplanted by the domains of the sengoku-daimyo. Under the rule of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the provinces were supplemented as primary local administrative units. The local daimyo's fiefs were developed.〔Mass, Jeffrey P. and William B. Hauser. (1987). (''The Bakufu in Japanese History,'' p. 150 ).〕
