Okayama Domain
The Okayama Domain (岡山藩, Okayama han?) was a Japanese domain of the Edo period. It was associated with Bizen Province in modern-day Okayama Prefecture.
In the han system, Okayama was a political and economic abstraction based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields. In other words, the domain was defined in terms of kokudaka, not land area. This was different than the feudalism of the West.
