  • Kokudaka: 20,000
  • Japanese: 中村藩 (Nakamura han)

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 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.
