The Kii-Shingu Domain (紀伊新宮藩) was a domain that ruled present-day Shingu City, Wakayama Prefecture (Kii Province). The capital is located at Shingū Castle (Shingu City, Wakayama Prefecture). The rulers of the domain were the Mizuno clan, who were the chief retainers of the Wakayama Domain, were given 35,000 koku.^[1]^[2]

History

During the Sengoku period, The Kii-Shingu Domain was controlled by Horiuchi Ujiyoshi , a vassal of the Toyotomi clan, but fell into the control of the Western army during the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600.

Asano Yukinaga, who was confined to Kii Province, Asano Tadanaga held the territory, but when the Asano clan was transferred to the Aki-Hiroshima Domain, Tadanaga accompanied him. Afterwards, Mizuno Shigeo, who joined the Ando clan as a senior retainer to Tokugawa Yorinobu, acquired 35,000 koku in Shingu.

The Mizuno clan, under the shogunate system were only vassals of the Kii-Tokugawa family and were not as daimyo. The Mizuno clan played an important role in the domain's politics as chief retainers for treated generations. The 9th daimyo, Mizuno Tadao, assisted Tokugawa Iemochi , who later became the 14th shogun from the lord of Wakayama, and worked with Naosuke Ii, a famous elder statesman at the end of the Edo period.

When the Tokugawa Gosanke's Wakayama Domain directly controlled the Chigyo, the Shingū Castle, the residents of what is now Kimoto-cho, Kumano City, Mie Prefecture fiercely opposed it, and Yoshida Shodayu, a feudal retainer at the time, scrambled to change the Chigyo. It was enshrined at Kimoto Shrine in memory of his passing.
