The {{nihongo|Tōkaidō|東海道||literally, "eastern sea circuit" or "eastern sea region"}} is a Japanese geographical term.[1] It means both an ancient division of the country and the main road running through it.[2] It is part of the Gokishichidō system.[3] The term also refers to a series of roads that connected the capitals (国府 kokufu) of each of the provinces that made up the region. The fifteen ancient provinces of the region include the following:[4]
In the Edo period, the {{nihongo|Tōkaidō road|東海道|Eastern Ocean Road}} was demonstrably the most important in Japan; and this marked prominence continued after the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate. In the early Meiji period, this region's eastern route was the one chosen for stringing the telegraph lines which connected the old capital city of Kyoto with the new "eastern capital" at Tokyo.[5] In the modern, post-Pacific War period, all measures show the Tōkaidō region increasing in its dominance as the primary center of population and employment.[6] See also
