Yilan County, alternately spelled I-lan, is a county in northeastern Taiwan, Republic of China. Yilan is northernmost county on the island of Taiwan with a population 449,510. Its seat is located in Yilan City.
After centuries of European and Qing rules, much of the present day Yilan County was part of Japan within its Taihoku Prefecture. When the Republic of China took over Taiwan in 1945, it became part of Taipei County until 10 October 1950 when 12 southeastern townships of Taipei County split off to form the present day Yilan County.
