The domain was formed in [[1666]], when [[Matsudaira Naomasa]], lord of Matsue, granted the 30,000 ''koku'' domain to his second son, [[Matsudaira Chikayoshi (1632-1717)|]]. Chikayoshi's younger brother, [[Matsudaira Takamasa]], was granted a 10,000 ''koku'' branch domain known as [[Mori han]] at that same time. Chikayoshi had his domain reduced by half in [[1682]], as the result of an Echigo succession dispute, but it was restored in [[1694]].<ref>"[https://kotobank.jp/word/%E6%9D%BE%E5%B9%B3%E8%BF%91%E6%A0%84-1110594 Matsudaira Chikayoshi]," ''Nihon jinmei daijiten'', Kodansha, 2009.</ref>
