The ancient provincial capital was near modern Imabari. During the Sengoku period it was split into several fiefs, the largest one usually being run from Matsuyama. It was briefly unified by the Chosokabe clan of neighboring Tosa, but Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded Shikoku in 1584 and reallocated the fiefs.
