In the later half of the twentieth century, the term "Okie" took on a new meaning, with many Oklahomans (both former and present) wearing the label as a badge of honor (as a symbol of the Okie survivor attitude).
Oki (隠岐) is the name of a group of islands (隠岐諸島 ''Oki shotō'') in the Sea of Japan, 40 to 80 km from the coast of Honshu.
Oki Airport (OKI), a Class III facility with a 1500 m runway, is in Saigō, the most populous town on these islands.
Oki (隠岐国; -no kuni) was an old province of Japan which consisted of Oki Islands in the Sea of Japan, located off the coast of Izumo and Hoki provinces.
From the Kamakura period Oki Province was governed by the shugo of Izuo province mostly.
After they declined and the Tokugawa Shogunate arose, the Shogunate determined the province the dominion of the shogun and had Matsue han, a daimyo belonging to Matsudaira clan, relatives of the Shogun, govern it.
