Yamagata Aritomo (山県 有朋; June 14,1838–February 1,1922) was a Japanese military leader and politician, and the fourth (December 24, 1889–May 6, 1891) and 11th (1898–1900) Prime Minister of Japan.
Yamagata was born in a lower-classed samurai Family of Hagi, the capital of the feudal domain Choshu-han.
Yamagata, with Akita Prefecture, composed Dewa Province until the Meiji Restoration.
Yamagata Prefecture is located in the southwest corner of Tohoku, facing the Sea of Japan.
Yamagata Prefecture is also known for its local dialect Yamagata-ben, sometimes thought of as backward sounding and the butt of jokes in other parts of Japan.
