The Principality of Yuki ( 結 城 藩 Yuki-khan ) is the feudal principality ( khan ) in Japan of the Edo period (1590-1601, 1700-1871). Yuki Khan was located in the province of Shimos (modern Ibaraki prefecture), the Tokaido region on the island of Honshu .
Summary
The administrative center is Yuki Castle (the modern city of Yuki in Ibaraki Prefecture ).
The Yuki clan was one of the eight leading samurai clans in the Kanto region during the Kamakura period . Tokugawa's youngest son Ieyasu , Hideyasu (1574-1607), was adopted by Toyotomi Hideyoshi as a possible heir. After the birth of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's son, Hideyasu was transferred for adoption to the Yuki clan ( Shimos province). Daimyo Yuki Harumoto (1534-1614) adopted Hideyosu, who adopted the name Yuki Hideyasu . He led the Yuki clan and took possession of the Yuki domain in the province of Shimos with an income of 100,000 coca rice. In 1600, Yuki Hideyasu participated on the side of his father Tokugawa Ieyasu at the Battle of Sekigahara , after which he gained possession of his father Kita-no-sho (Etizen Province) with an income of 750,000 koku . In 1601, Hideyasu obtained the domain of Fukui Khan in the province of Etizen .
From 1601 to 1700, before the Genroku period, the Yuki Khan domain was under the direct control of the Tokugawa Shogunate . In 1700, Mukuno Katsunaga (1679-1704) was transferred to Yuki Khan from Nishiya Khan. Descendants of the latter managed the domain until the Meiji Restoration . During the Bosin War, the principality was divided between supporters of imperial power and supporters of the shogunate . Mizuno Katsumoto, the 10th daimyo of Yuki Khan, was admitted to the Nihommatsu clan and was an active supporter of Tokugawa, while his adoptive son and heir, Mizuno Katsuhiro, supported the imperial side. Katsumoto helped Tokugawa supporters capture the Yuuki castle, and his son helped during the re-capture of the castle by the imperial forces. The Meiji government punished Katsuhiro for supporting the Tokugawa Shogunate , curtailed his income to 1,000 koku rice and expelled him from the domain. Mizuno Katsuhiro later became governor of Yuki Khan.
In 1871, after the administrative-political reform, Yuki-khan was liquidated. The territory of the former principality was included in the Ibaraki prefecture.
