Mikawa (Mikawa is used to refer to the eastern portion of Aichi, including such cities as Toyohashi, Okazaki, and Toyota.)is famous in Japan for its fireworks manufacturing most of Japan's fireworks. So the Shogun could maintain security, Mikawa was the only area allowed to produce gunpowder which lead to the fireworks industry. The annual Okazaki fireworks are one of the best in Japan.
