hida province

Hida (飛騨国; -no kuni) is an old province located in Tosando of Japan, which today composes the northern part of Gifu prefecture. The castle town of Hida was Takayama. Hida had extensive forests and was a major source of timber and metals for other provinces. River traffic from Hida down to Mino and Owari was heavy. In 1585, Kanamori Nagachika, one of Oda Nobunaga's and later Toyotomi Hideyoshi's generals, was sent to occupy Hida and became its lord. He fought on the side of Tokugawa Ieyasu at Sekigahara and his heirs held the province through the Edo period.
