Iwaramoto (原本) is the largest city in Nantou. It is located in southern Daishu, located directly south of the imperial capital, Rannobe. Originally considered an outer district of Rannobe, Iwaramoto has seen rapid population growth since 1830, leading to its designation as a city in 1845. In 1858, the Rannobe Prefecture was split in order to create the Iwaramoto Prefecture as a new urban prefecture.
