I made a map of Japan's 206 daimyo domains in 1664 with each clan's mon — I'm not Japanese, could you help me check it for mistakes?
Hi all,
I run Emblema Mundi, a free interactive atlas of coats of arms and emblems. I've just finished a map of Japan in 1664: the 206 daimyo domains under the Tokugawa shogunate, with the clan that held each one, its branch where known, its castle town and its mon. Each clan has its own page.
I'm not Japanese and not a specialist, so I'm sure there are mistakes, and I'd much rather fix them than leave them online. Anything you spot is welcome, for example:
- a mon attributed to the wrong clan or the wrong branch
- a clan placed in the wrong domain or castle town
- errors in the kanji or the romanization of names
Domain boundaries come from the Japan Historical GIS (CHGIS, after Nihonshi nembyō chizu, Yoshikawa Kōbunkan 1991), and the mon images from Wikimedia Commons.

Thank you in advance, and if you can point to a source with your correction, even better!
