Nakamura han was a branch domain of [[Tosa han]], located in [[Tosa province]] on the island of [[Shikoku]]. It was formed in [[1601]], when [[Yamauchi Kazutoyo]], the first [[Edo period]] ''[[daimyo|daimyô]]'' of Tosa, suppressed resistance to his taking over the domain, and enfeoffed his retainers. The largest sub-fief in the domain was split off as Nakamura han, a 20,000 ''[[koku]]'' branch domain, and was given to Kazutoyo's brother, [[Yamauchi Yasutoyo]].

The domain was confiscated by [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Tsunayoshi]] in [[1689]], and re-absorbed into Tosa domain in [[1696]], after the lord of Nakamura at that time, a younger brother of the lord of Tosa, refused to accept appointment to become a ''[[wakadoshiyori]]'' in the shogunate government. He argued that he could not afford the expenses involved, and that furthermore as a ''tozama daimyô'' he should have been ineligible for the position anyway. The territory's production had been reassessed by that point, and added roughly 30,000 ''koku'' worth of value (13,000 ''koku'' of actual revenue in 1696) to the Yamauchi domain.<ref>Roberts, ''Mercantilism'', 91.</ref>
