Chikugo Province

Chikugo (Japanese筑 后 国, Chikugo no kuni ) was an old province of Japan in the area of the southern part of present-day Fukuoka Prefecture on the island of Kyūshū. Chikugo bordered by the provinces of Hizen, Chikuzen, Bungo and Higo.

The province was created in the late 7th century by splitting the old province of Tsukushi in the provinces Chikuzen ( " front Tsukushi " ) and Chikugo ( "Behind - Tsukushi ").

The old capital of the province ( Kokufu ) was Kurume in the modern city. In the Edo period, the province was divided into two fiefs. The Tachibana clan received the western part of Yanagawa as the capital and the Arima received the East with Kurume.
