==History=Climate===
Kuwana has a [[Humid subtropical climate]] (Köppen ''Cfa'') characterized by warm summers and cool winters with light to no snowfall. The average annual temperature in Kuwana is {{cvt|16.1|C}}. The average annual rainfall is {{cvt|1616.3|mm}} with September as the wettest month. The temperatures are highest on average in August, at around {{cvt|28.0|C}}, and lowest in January, at around {{cvt|4.8|C}}.<ref name=normals/>
During the late [[Heian period]] and [[Muromachi period]], the area of modern Kuwana was known as {{nihongo|Juraku-no-tsu|十楽の津||}} and was a major seaport on the east coast of Japan, controlled by a guild of merchants. The poet Socho described it in 1515 as a major city with over a thousand houses, temples and inns. During the [[Sengoku period]], the area came under the control of the warlord [[Oda Nobunaga]]. The [[Sieges of Nagashima]] took place in 1571, 1573 and 1574, finally resulting in the destruction of the [[Ikkō-ikki]] by Nobunaga’s forces.
 
* Temperature: Maximum {{cvt|39.8|C}} (August 3, 2018), Minimum {{cvt|-6.4|C}} (February 4, 1999)
After Nobunaga’s death, the area came under the control of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]], who initially installed Nobunaga’s younger son [[Oda Nobukatsu]] as ruler as all of [[Ise Province]]. However, following the [[Siege of Odawara (1590)|Battle of Odawara]], Hideyoshi demoted Oda Nobukatsu, divided Ise Province into several domains, was assigned to [[Ujiie Yukihiro]] as a 22,000 ''[[koku]]'' domain in 1595. Ujiie Yukihiro sided with the pro-Toyotomi armies in the [[Battle of Sekigahara]] and was dispossessed by [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]].

In January 1601, one of Ieyasu’s main generals, [[Honda Tadakatsu]] was installed as [[daimyō]] of Kuwana Domain, with revenues of 100,000 ''koku''. The [[Tokugawa Shogunate]] recognized the strategic value of the location as both a seaport, and also as [[Kuwana-juku]], as the forty-second [[53 Stations of the Tōkaidō|post station]] on the vital [[Tōkaidō (road)|Tōkaidō]] highway connecting [[Edo]] with [[Kyoto]]. Some travelers along the road would take ships and boats across [[Ise Bay]] from [[Miya-juku]] (located in present-day [[Nagoya]] near [[Atsuta Shrine]]) to Kuwana, which reportedly made the journey more enjoyable. The trip across the Ise Bay, which took a whole day, made Kuwana a necessary stop for most of the travelers, benefiting the city's numerous inns and restaurants which served fresh sea food. Kuwana was especially known for its clams.

===Demographics===
In 1609, Honda Tadakatsu was succeeded by his son [[Honda Tadamasa]], who distinguished himself at the [[Siege of Osaka]] and was rewarded with a transfer to the more lucrative [[Himeji Domain]] in 1617.The strategic Kuwana Domain was then assigned to Ieyasu’s half-brother, [[Hisamatsu Sadakatsu]], whose descendants ruled until they were transferred to [[Takada Domain]] in [[Echigo Province]] in 1710, and their place taken by the Okudaira branch of the [[Matsudaira clan]], who ruled to 1823, when a branch of the Hisamatsu returned to Kuwana from [[Shirakawa Domain]] in [[Mutsu Province]]. The Hisamatsu continued to rule Kuwana until the end of the Tokugawa shogunate. [[Matsudaira Sadaaki]], the next-to-last daimyō of Kuwana served as the last ''[[Kyoto shoshidai]]'' and supported his brother, [[Matsudaira Katamori]], daimyo of [[Aizu Domain]]. He fought in the [[Boshin War]], finally surrendering to the [[Meiji government]] after the fall of the [[Republic of Ezo]].
Per Japanese census data,<ref>[https://www.citypopulation.de/php/japan-mie.php Kuwana population statistics]</ref> the population of Kuwana has increased steadily over the past 60 years.

==History==
The area re-established itself as a regional commercial center and was noted for its metal casting industry. Kuwana Town was established in April 1889. The modern city was founded on April 1, 1937, as a result of a merger between existing towns and villages in the area. The city was devastated by Allied air raids on July 17 and July 24, 1945, during [[World War II]], which destroyed some 90% of its urban area.

Under the [[Tokugawa shogunate]], Kuwana was the [[jōkamachi|castle town]] of [[Kuwana Domain]], with a ''[[kokudaka]]'' of 150,000 ''koku''. It was also the location of [[Kuwana-juku]], as the forty-second [[53 Stations of the Tōkaidō|post station]] on the vital [[Tōkaidō (road)|Tōkaidō]] highway connecting [[Edo]] with [[Kyoto]]. Some travelers along the road would take ships and boats across [[Ise Bay]] from [[Miya-juku]] (located in present-day [[Nagoya]] near [[Atsuta Shrine]]) to Kuwana, which reportedly made the journey more enjoyable.

Kuwana was especially known for its clams. The shogunate recognized the strategic value of the location as both a seaport, and the domain was always ruled by a ''[[fudai daimyō]]'', and from 1823 by the ''[[Shinpan (daimyo)|shinpan daimyō]]'' Hisamatsu clan. [[Matsudaira Sadaaki]], the next-to-last ''daimyō'' of Kuwana served as the last ''[[Kyoto shoshidai]]'' and supported his brother, [[Matsudaira Katamori]], daimyō of [[Aizu Domain]]. He fought in the [[Boshin War]], finally surrendering to the [[Meiji government]] after the fall of the [[Republic of Ezo]]. With the [[abolition of the han system]] in July 1871 after the [[Meiji restoration]], Kuwana Domain became “Kuwana Prefecture”, and later became Kuwana District within Mie Prefecture.<ref name="Kuwana2-hp"/>
Portions of the city were heavily damaged in 1959 by the [[Isewan Typhoon]].
 
The area re-established itself as a regional commercial center and was noted for its metal casting industry. Kuwana Town was established in April 1889 with the establishment of the modern municipalities system. It was raised to city status on April 1, 1937, as a result of a merger between existing towns and villages in the area. The city was devastated by Allied air raids on July 17 and July 24, 1945, during [[World War II]], which destroyed some 90% of its urban area. Portions of the city were again heavily damaged in 1959 by the [[Isewan Typhoon]].
 
On December 6, 2004, the towns of [[Nagashima, Mie|Nagashima]] and [[Tado, Mie|Tado]] (both from [[Kuwana District, Mie|Kuwana District]]) were merged into Kuwana.
 
==Government==

In terms of national politics, the city is part of Mie 3rd district of the [[House of Representatives of Japan|lower house]] of the [[Diet of Japan]].
 
==TransportationEconomy==
Traditionally, Kuwana has been noted for its metal casting industry, which remains an important factor in the local economy, especially with the production on manhole covers and gratings. Another traditional industry that Kuwana was famous for was the production of [[Banko ware]] ceramics, and for its woodworking industries, including the production of wooden trays and furniture. [[Commercial fishing]], especially the farming of [[Meretrix lusoria|''hamaguri'']] clams is also an important industry. Today, the city functions as a [[bed town]] for nearby [[Nagoya]] and [[Yokkaichi, Mie|Yokkaichi]]. A large housing estate called Ōyamada (大山田) is located west of central Kuwana.
