This region axis groups guides by Japanese prefecture — the country's top-level administrative regions, from Hokkaido in the north to Okinawa in the south. Guides are filed under the prefecture or prefectures they cover, so a guide spanning more than one may appear under each, and a few guides that don't fit a single prefecture aren't filed under this axis at all. New prefectures are added here as guides are written for them, so the list below is expected to grow rather than stay fixed.
