The Asao Domain (浅尾藩)[1] was a domain with *chigyochi* in Bitchu, Kawachi, Yamashiro, and Settsu in the Edo period. The domain's capital is Asao Jinya (currently Soja City, Okayama Prefecture).[2][3][4]
History
The founder of the domain, Maita Hirosada, was a daimyo who joined the Western Army in the Battle of Sekigahara and was a daimyo who was a patron of the Toyotomi clan. After the Battle of Sekigahara, he was deprived of the Kumoizu Domain, but was later allowed to, in 1603, he was given 10,000 *koku* in Kayo-gun and Kuboya-gun, Ogata-gun, Kawachi Province, Kuze-gun, Yamashiro Province, and Toyoshima-gun and Hachibe-gun in Settsu Province, and established the domain in Bitchu Province.[citation needed]
In 1636, the second daimyo of the family, Sadamasa, distributed 3,000 *koku* to his younger brother Nagahiro, and together with his territory, he became a *hatamoto* of 8,310 *koku*, and was no longer a daimyo. In addition, it became 7,700 *koku* from the third daimyo of the clan, Sadayuki. In the Kinmon Incident in 1864, Hirotaka played an active role in repelling the Choshu clan as a Kyoto Mimari. Perhaps because of the resentment at this time, on April 12, 1866, more than 100 Choshu *roshi*, including Sonichiro Tateishi, who escaped from the Daini Kihei-tai, were attacked and killed by more than 100 *roshi* (Kurashiki Asao Riot) by the Kurashiki Magistrate's capital. After that, this capital was not sufficiently restored until the Meiji Restoration.[citation needed]
In 1871, the Asao Domain became Asao Prefecture due to the abolition of feudal domains and establishment of prefectures. After that, it was incorporated into Okayama Prefecture through Fukatsu Prefecture and Oda Prefecture.[6]
