The Mitsubishi Group of companies started over 100 years ago during the Meiji Period (1867-1912). The Mitsubishi logo came from the Tosa region (today the region is called Kochi Prefecture), and is actually a combination of the Three Oak Leaves family crest of the Yamauchi Family of the Tosa Clan, and the Three Diamonds family crest of a samurai named Yataro Iwasaki. The present form of the Mitsubishi logo was first used in 1910, the 43rd year of the Meiji Period.
