The Kaga Domain (加賀藩, Kaga han), also known as Kanazawa Domain (金沢藩, Kanazawa han),[1] was a feudal domain in Edo period Japan, covering most of Kaga Province and Etchū Provinces and all of Noto Province (modern-day Ishikawa and Toyama Prefectures), in the Hokuriku region of Japan. It was centered on Kanazawa Castle in what is now the city of Kanazawa. Throughout its history, it was ruled by the Maeda clan. Kaga Domain had an assessed kokudaka of over one million koku, making it by far the largest of the feudal domains within the Tokugawa shogunate.[2] The location of the main Edo residence of the daimyō of the Kaga Domain is now the site of the Hongō campus of the University of Tokyo.

History


Maeda Toshiie was a distinguished military commander, a retainer of Oda Nobunaga and a close friend of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. A member of the Council of Five Elders who ruled Japan during the Sengoku period, he was granted the Kaga Domain in 1583.[1] His eldest son, Maeda Toshinaga, supported Tokugawa Ieyasu in his rise to power and was rewarded by an increase in his lands to 1.25 million koku.


Toshinaga was succeeded by his brother Maeda Toshitsune, who created two cadet branches of the clan:




  • Toyama Domain (100,000 koku), headed by descendants of Toshitsune's second son Toshitsugu (1617–1674)


  • Daishōji Domain (100,000 koku), headed by descendants of Toshitsune's fourth son Toshiaki (1638–1692)


A third cadet line was founded by Toshitsune's brother Maeda Toshitaka for his services during the Siege of Osaka. This branch held the Nanokaichi Domain, rated at the minimum of 10,000 koku.


The Maeda clan ruled Kaga until the abolition of the domains in 1871.



Bakumatsu period holdings


As with most domains in the han system, Kaga Domain consisted of discontinuous territories calculated to provide the assigned kokudaka, based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields.[3][4] At the end of the Tokugawa shogunate, the domain consisted of the following holdings:




  • Kaga Province

    • 177 villages in Kahoku District (all of district)

    • 235 villages in Ishikawa District (all of district)

    • 205 villages in Nomi District (all except 18 villages)




  • Noto Province

    • 177 villages in Hakui District (all of district)

    • 128 villages in Kashima District (all of district)

    • 229 villages in Fugeshi District (all of district)

    • 75 villages in Suzu District (all except one village, which was shared)




  • Etchū Province

    • 220 villages in Imizu District (all of district)

    • 490 villages in Tonami District (all of district)

    • 409 villages in Niikawa District (all of district)




  • Ōmi Province
    • 3 villages in Takashima District

Electric locomotive Škoda ChS4-109. The Moscow — Odessa train in Vinnytsia railway station. The Siemens ES64U4, is the current confirmed holder as the fastest electric locomotive at 357 km/h (222 mph) in 2006. An electric locomotive is a locomotive powered by electricity from overhead lines, a third rail or on-board energy storage such as a battery or a supercapacitor. Electric locomotives with on-board fueled prime movers, such as diesel engines or gas turbines, are classed as diesel-electric or gas turbine-electric and not as electric locomotives, because the electric generator/motor combination serves only as a power transmission system. Electric locomotives benefit from the high efficiency of electric motors, often above 90% (not including the inefficiency of generating the electricity). Additional efficiency can be gained from regenerative braking, which allows kinetic energy to be recovered during braking to put power back on the line. Newer electric locomotives ...
