Iga Province (伊賀国, Iga no kuni?) was an old province of Japan in the area that is today western Mie Prefecture. It was sometimes called Ishū (伊州?). Iga bordered on Ise, Ōmi, Yamato, and Yamashiro Provinces.
Famous quotes containing the word province:
“The dramatic art would appear to be rather a feminine art; it contains in itself all the artifices which belong to the province of woman: the desire to please, facility to express emotions and hide defects, and the faculty of assimilation which is the real essence of woman.”
—Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)
