History[change]
After 1869, the northern Japanese island was known as Hokkaido.[1] Regional subdivisions were established. Nemuro Province was one of the new entities which were created in 1869.[2]
In the Meiji period, the provinces of Japan were converted into prefectures. The maps of Japan including Nemuro Province were reformed in the 1870s.[3]
In 1882, Nemuro and the other ten provinces of Hokkaido were reorganized as Hakodate Prefecture, Sapporo Prefecture and Nemuro Prefecture.[4]
