Funai Domain (府内藩,Funai-han) was afeudal domain under theTokugawa shogunate ofEdo period Japan, in what is now southernŌita Prefecture. It was centered aroundFunai Castle in what is now the city ofŌita and was ruled by thefudai daimyōOgyū-Matsudaira clan for most of its history.[1][2][3]
Bungo Province was under the control of theŌtomo clan from theKamakura period to theSengoku period. Under the tenure of theKirishitan warlordŌtomo Sōrin, the Ōtomo clan invadedHyūga Province but was defeated by theShimazu clan from 1586, and were confined to Nyujima Castle (the predecessor of Usuki Castle). The Ōtomo were saved byToyotomi Hideyoshi's 1586-1587Kyūshū campaign and were allowed to reclaim Bungo province as their territory. However,Ōtomo Yoshimune (Sōrin's son) behaved in a cowardly manner during theJapanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598) which so angered Hideyoshi that they were deprived of their fief and Ōtomo Yoshimune was banished. Bungo was divided into small fiefs At theBattle of Sekigahara in 1600, Takanaka Shigetoshi, a cousin of the famousTakenaka Hanbei, initially sided with the Western Army and participated in theSiege of Tanabe, but later defected to the Eastern Army, and was rewarded byTokugawa Ieyasu with an increase in his estates from 10,000koku inBungotakada to 20,000koku in Funai. This marks the establishment of Funai Domain. Shigetoshi's son, Shigeyoshi, succeeded him and gained the favor ofTokugawa Hidetada, but was discovered to have been engaged in illicit foreign trade during the rule ofTokugawa Iemitsu and ordered to commitseppuku.
He was replaced by Himeno Yoshiakira fromMibu Domain inShimotsuke Province in 1634; however on his death without heir in1656 the domain went intoattainder. In 1658, Yoshiakira's nephew-in-law (the son of his legal wife's brother), Matsudaira Tadaaki, thedaimyō of Bungo Takamatsu Domain was transferred to Funai. Throughout the remainder of theEdo period, theOgyū-Matsudaira clan continued to rule Funai for ten generations until theMeiji restoration. In 1871, due to theabolition of the han system, Funai Domain became Funai Prefecture, and was later incorporated into Ōita Prefecture. The Ogyū-Matsudaira clan was elevated to thekazoku peerage with the title of viscount in 1884.
As with most domains in thehan system, Funai Domain consisted of several discontinuous territories calculated to provide the assignedkokudaka, based on periodiccadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields, g.[4][5]
