Government of Japan

Japanese War was one of great importance for the world as a whole. It is said to have been fought from 1937 till 1945 but many argue that this strife was much longer than those dates would imply.

As a soldier, I realize that wars had brought these two countries into serious situations. Wars caused China to be colonized by western foreigners, and Japanese in the Pearl Harbor lived in the internment camps. The experience I went through is vulnerable and I cannot wait to share it with the public. Japan, in general, is the greatest developed country by far in terms of…

Japanese society. A major impact of China on Japan is Buddhism. Siddharta Gautama was born in India, and was the center of Buddhism. The religion is based off of his teachings. It was spreading across Asia and eventually came to China. Japanese citizens liked Buddhism, but it caused some controversy because the Buddha was not Japanese, he was Indian.
