Long ago, Tokushima City belonged to a region known as Myodo-gun. But in the first wave of government consolidation following the abolishment of the fiefdom system and construction of prefectures in 1871, it became known by the name of Myodo Prefecture. At the time, it included not only the Awa region to the south, but the Awaji and Awaji Island regions as well. In 1873 it further incorporated the region currently occupied by Kagawa Prefecture in its borders.

But in the second wave of government consolidation, on September 5, 1875, the Sanuki Region separated to form modern day Kagawa Prefecture. Then, on August 21, 1876, Awaji Island separated to join Hyogo Prefecture and the Awa region separated to form Kochi Prefecture.

After this, on March 2, 1880 Myodo Prefecture fully separated from Kochi Prefecture and became inaugurated as Tokushima Prefecture.
