  Totomi Province - Biocrawler
Totomi (遠江国; Tōtōmi-no kuni) is an old province in the area of Japan that is today western Shizuoka prefecture.
Totomi's ancient castle town was near modern Iwata, Shizuoka, but by the Sengoku period the chief castle town was at Hamamatsu.
Totomi was controlled by the Imagawa clan, and later came under the control of Tokugawa Ieyasu, who ruled it until he took over the Kanto region.

 Totomi province - SamuraiWiki
As with many of the provinces that can be paired as 'front' or 'back', Totomi Province can be paired with Omi Province, for while Omi is the "near faint sea", Totomi is the "distant faint sea".
In 642, an imperial edict conscripting workers from around the country designated that span as 'from Totomi in the east to Aki in the west'.
Throughout history, Totomi has been closely connected with the provinces of Ise and Mikawa due to their geographical locations.

 Ii Naomasa
Naomasa was born in Hôda village in the Inasa district of Tôtômi province and was first known as Toramatsu.
At the end of the fighting he was shot and wounded by a Shimazu sniper as he was attempting to run down the retreating Shimazu contingent.
Naomasa was afterwards awarded Sawayama in Ômi Province (worth some 180,000 koku) but died in 1602, evidently as a result of his Sekigahara wound.

Though all provinces’ farmlands can be developed, you should make it a priority to take provinces that produce a lot of rice each year, and concentrate on developing those farmlands first.
If the province in question has iron sands (for an armory) or another valuable metal (for money,) or if a specific type of troop trained there is of superior quality, it would be a good idea to take and develop that province as soon as possible.
Provinces that can hold a large area are vital to defense, especially if the areas they guard are not adequately garrisoned.

 Masaru Fujimoto, Volleys that rang the death knell of an age
Then, in 1575, Nobunaga's victory at the Battle of Nagashino—where he issued his 30,000 troops with some 3,000 matchlocks—showed for the first time on this soil that the future of warfare would come from the barrels of guns.
Only three years before, on Dec. 22, 1572, Takeda Shingen and 27,000 troops had raided Ieyasu's territory in Totomi province (western Shizuoka Prefecture) and decimated his 12,000-strong force at the Battle of Mikatagahara.
In the battle, Ieyasu himself was almost killed, and is said to have been so scared that he defecated in his pants while in the saddle—but did not realize until he had fled back to his castle stronghold in Hamamatsu (Shizuoka Prefecture).
