Kokura han was an [[Edo period]] [[han|domain]] in [[Buzen province]]. Ruled by the [[Ogasawara clan]] from [[Kokura castle]], it was assessed at a ''[[kokudaka]]'' of 370,000 ''[[koku]]''. The domain was one of five in Kyushu which was obliged by the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] to contribute to coastal defense, and also regularly provided ''kawa-[[gozabune]]'' (luxury riverboats) to the [[Ryukyuan embassies to Edo]], for use on the [[Yodo River]] connecting [[Osaka]] and [[Fushimi]].
Though originally ruled by the [[Hosokawa clan]], Kokura was given to the Ogasawara in [[1632]] as part of efforts by the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] to place more ''fudai [[daimyo|daimyô]]'' in Kyushu, and to thus defend against potential uprising by Kyushu ''daimyô'' like the [[Shimazu clan]].
