The Kaga Domain , also known as the Kanazawa Domain , was a domain of the Tokugawa Shogunate of Japan during the Edo period from 1583 to 1871.

The Edo period , also known as the Tokugawa period , is the period between 1603 and 1868 in the history of Japan, when Japan was under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate and the country's 300 regional daimyo. Emerging from the chaos of the Sengoku period, the Edo period was characterized by economic growth, strict social order, isolationist foreign policies, a stable population, overall peace, and popular enjoyment of arts and culture, colloquially referred to as Ōedo .
