| Okinawa Prefecture (Japanese: , Hepburn: Okinawa-ken, Okinawan: Uchinaa-chin) is the southernmost prefecture of Japan.

The Ryukyu Islands extend southwest from Kyushu (the southwesternmost of Japan's four main islands) to Taiwan (Yilan County). Naha, Okinawa's capital, is located in the southern part of Okinawa Island.Although Okinawa Prefecture comprises just 0.6 percent of Japan's total land mass, about 75 percent of all United States military personnel stationed in Japan are assigned to installations in the prefecture.
