About Kimitsu
Kimitsu (君津市, Kimitsu-shi) is a city located in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. As of September 2010, the city has an estimated population of 88,409, and a population density of 277 persons per km². The total area is 318.83 km2 (123.10 sq mi).
Kimitsu is the second largest city in Chiba Prefecture and is located in the western part of central Bōsō Peninsula. It borders Tokyo Bay. Two small rivers cross Kimitsu, the Koito River and the Obitsu River.
The area of present-day Kimitsu was largely part of the feudal domain of Kururi during the Edo period. It was divided between Moda District and Sue District in the early Meiji period cadastral reforms. Both districts became part of Kimitsu District from April 1, 1897. Kimitsu Town was founded within Kimitsu District on April 1, 1943, and expanded through annexation of two neighboring villages on April 1, 1944. Kimitsu was elevated to city status on September 1, 1971.
About Okugome
Okugome (奥米, Okugome) is a mountainous area located in Kitmitsu, Chiba, Japan.
The town is situated in the middle of the mountains of the Bōsō Peninsula. There are no major towns or villages in Okugome, just isolated farms. The area would have been very isolated before the Okugome tunnel[1] and other bridges were constructed.
The Okugome area is mostly forest with a few small farms and is located on the south-central Bōsō Peninsula.
Okugome was established in 1952 when the Okugome tunnel was built in order to access the area. It was previously only accessible via a mountain path. The Okugome tunnel is often suggested as haunted due to its curved construction. Japanese legend suggests tunnels where you cannot see either end from the middle contain spirits, as they cannot escape.
The only industry in the town is light farming on the small rice paddies.

Futtsu is located on the southwest coast of Bōsō Peninsula, south-southwest of the city of Chiba facing the Uraga Channel and almost due south of the capital city of Tokyo at the southern end of Tokyo Bay.
The area of modern Futtsu has been inhabited since the Japanese Paleolithic period, and numerous remains from the Jōmon, Yayoi and Kofun period have been found within the city limits. The area also is prominent in the Yamatotakeru mythology. Under the Ritsuryō system of the Nara period, the area became part of Amaha County and Sue County of Kazusa Province. Large scale shōen in the Heian period gave way to feudal samurai estates in the Kamakura period, with large portions controlled by the temple of Shomyo-ji in Mutsuura. The area was contested between the Takeda clan and Satomi clan during the Sengoku period. During the Edo period under the Tokugawa shogunate, most of the area was under the control of Sanuki Domain. After the Meiji Restoration, the area came under Kimitsu District
Futtsu Town was founded on December 1, 1897. It expanded through merger with neighboring Aoyagi Town on March 31, 1955, and again through merger with Amaha Town and Osawa Town on April 25, 1971. Futtsu attained city status on September 1, 1971.
According to Victory at Sea (H. Saloman and R. Hanser, Doubleday, 1959), Futtsu was on August 30, 1945 the site of the initial Allied landing on the Japanese mainland following the declared surrender. This was a test whether the Japanese would obey the Emperor’s surrender order. There was no resistance.
Futtsu has a mixed economy based on commercial fishing, agriculture, tourism, and electrical power generation.
