The district (郡; gun) was most recently used as an administrative unit in Japan between 1878 and 1921 and is roughly equivalent to the county of the United States.
Because district names had been unique in the province and nowadays prefecture boundaries are roughly aligned to province boundaries, most district names are unique in the prefecture.
Abuta District, RumoiDistrict, SorachiDistrict, and YufutsuDistrict are deceptively similar, but each of them is a single district allotted to two subprefectures.
