I have changed this sentence:

December 7, 1868 (January 19, 1869 according to the Gregorian calendar) Rikuzen is separated from Mutsu Province

"January 19, 1869" is the only correct date. The other date was an incorrect translation from Japanese of 'the 7th day of the 12th month' of that particular year of the (un-reformed) Japanese Imperial calendar. The 7th day of the 12th month does not in this case correspond to December 7th, it corresponds to January 19th. Alfons Åberg (talk) 15:44, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
