Modern-day Yamagata Prefecture is roughly contiguous with the domain, and its capital city, also called Yamagata, grew up out of the daimyo's (feudal lord's) castle town.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Yamagata Domain was a Japanese fief (han), located in Dewa province, in the T hoku region (north-eastern Honsh ). Modern-day Yamagata Prefecture is roughly contiguous with the domain, and its capital city, also called Yamagata, grew up out of the daimyo's (feudal lord's) castle town. Unlike some han whose control was relatively stable throughout the Edo period (1603-1867), Yamagata changed hands a great number of times within a very short space of time. Originally populated by the Ezo (aboriginal peoples), Yamagata came to be the fief of the sh branch of the Fujiwara family in the Heian period (794-1185). In the Sengoku (1467-1603) and Edo periods, the territory changed hands a number of times, and came to play an important role in the battles immediately leading up to the Sekigahara Campaign of 1600. At the time, Yamagata was controlled by Mogami Yoshiaki who had taken it from the Uesugi family. Along with a number of allies, he defended the domain from the army of Naoe Kanetsugu, an ally of Ishida Mitsunari, who made his way towards Yamagata from the neighboring Yonezawa Domain, with an army of 20,000.
