In real life[]
In 1889, the current region of the city was occupied by 6 villages (Gochōda, Higashiureshino, Kuma, Nishiureshino, Shiota, and Yoshida).
The modern city of Ureshino was formed on January 1, 2006, by the merger of the ancient city of Ureshino, absorbing the city of Shiota (both from the Fujitsu district). Ureshino is known locally for the green tea grown there and its hot spring spas.
