Fusa Province (総国 or 捄国, Fusa-no kuni) was a very old province of Japan in the area of Shimōsa and Kazusa provinces on the island of Honshū.[1] It was sometimes called Sōshū (総州).
The boundaries of this ancient entity are within Chiba Prefecture and Ibaraki Prefecture.[2]
The history of the province started and ended before the Taihō Code was established at the beginning of the 8th century.
