Tokushima was a 258,000 ''[[koku]] [[tozama]]'' [[han|domain]] located on [[Shikoku]]. The domain, based at [[Tokushima castle]] and ruled by the [[Hachisuka clan]], controlled most of [[Awa province]], along with [[Awaji Island]]. The domain has been characterized as possessing a highly commercialized economy, specializing in particular in the production & export of [[indigo]], and a relatively small samurai population compared to many other domains.<ref>Ravina, 9.</ref>
[[Hachisuka Yoshishige]] was the first [[Edo period]] lord of Tokushima, being granted the domain by [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] following his loyal service at the [[Battle of Sekigahara]]. He was later given [[Awaji Island]] as part of his domain.
During the reign of the third lord of Tokushima, [[Hachisuka Tadateru]], misconduct on the part of one of the ''[[karo|karô]]'' led to a [[O-Ie Sodo|succession dispute]] known as the [[Amabe Dispute]]; another incident known as the [[Inada Dispute]] occurred in the [[Bakumatsu period]], throwing the governance of the domain into chaos.
