Proposal to reorganize prefectures in Japan
Dōshūsei (道州制) is a proposal to organize Japan into one circuit (dō) of Hokkaido and several new states (shū) that are each a combination of several prefectures. The states and circuit are proposed to have greater regional autonomy, similar to the United Kingdom. It was proposed[when?] by the Junichiro Koizumi administration, but has yet to materialize.
