Our constitution says territory of ROK is korean penninsula and its islands. But we dont really force others to choose between north and south simce we lack power unlike china
It would be more correct to say that Korea is surrounded by those countries, since they're in the right middle of those countries. China in the west, Russia in the north, and Japan in the east.
Japan also has Gogzilla. He comes ashore and crushes Tokyo every few years (whenever a filmmaker is short on money), flattens it, but then insurance companies build it back just the same as before. I wish he'd come ashore in the District of Columbia and step on one of the more notorious governmental agencies there.
Which is the size of South Korea. South Korea, which also has more than 70% of its area covered with mountains too and not having any resources just like Japan: 😐 "we have good geography"
Sometimes it can also be their greatest strength tho. The mountainous terrain makes it almost impossible to invade, and storms can stop things like invading Mongols.
Mongols would have taken over Japan if not for the typhoons, I doubt mountains would've 100% stopped them. Especially with japan being so close to the mongol empire.
Funfact - Japan's economic and buisness model is copied all over world , japan would have surpassed USA's GDP in 90's but since japan is satellite country of USA . USA didn't want japan to surpass USA , From there Japan's economy didn't grow and even today after 3 decades still Japan's economy is almost same as it was 3 decades before . People may not agree to me but as an geopolitical expert this is my opinion!
But Japan is still a economic powerhouse despite it Being in the worst geographical location but it’s a great place to live there if there isn’t any natural disasters happening
Japan might have one of the worst geography but Japan is one of the best country to live in, their food, culture, cities and people are S teir for me. I would wanna travel there one day, people there are very nice and generous their cities are best. Most people know Japan because of Anime or Japan's food but I think the world could learn a lot form Japan its surprising how fast Japan grew in the last few decades after the world wars and the nukes drop on Japan its grown didnt stop the whole would should take inspiration from Japan.
Uh… if you travel there, it’s S tier. But if you actually live there, it isn’t that great. That’s exactly the thing. People either claim that they know Japan from anime or from stuffs like “Why Japan is the best country”. In reality, it’s much shittier.
Harsh working environment, which contributes to Japan’s highest suicide rate and increasing living price (because of how densely populated the cities are) are the two main things I don’t really like about living in Japan. Besides, Japanese aren’t too fond of foreigners who actually live there. If you are a tourist, okay. But if you settle there, they won’t be too welcoming.
As a South Korean I can confirm Japan basically acts as a geographical meat shield for most natural disasters; most earthquakes happen there, tsunamis are blocked by its land, and typhoons are weakened by the time it, if it even does, reach South Korea.
The self-sufficiency is important but it's not all about how the countries work. The rapid decreasing of population seems to be even more serious issue over there than lack of the natural resources. And as someone said, not having the land borders is also an advantage.
As Japanese I don’t understand how you internet can be this sure about the positivity about japan without living there. Yep it’s very productive, safe, developed country which has one of the best gastronomy. However it has also the biggest rate of death by overwork, and suicide rate between 15 and 25. I’ve only lived in two country in my life and my annual salary is 4 time less than Japan after my immigration to France, but I can live as human with mental health now 😊
I live in Japan and this is correct I live in Tokyo, and this is why the Tokyo metropolitan area boasts the world's largest population (despite the declining birthrate and aging population).
Indonesia too. In fact, these 3 countries are very similar. All have thousands of islands big and small, lack natural resources, vulnerable to natural disasters and the populations are concentrated in specific regions.
The old empires invaded other countries and still have territorial disputes which is with China, Korea, and Russia. No other countiries in the world have territorial disputes with all three at the same time.

To counter it, Japan befriended a famous Austrian painter to takeover the world’s resources.

Japan’s worst geographical problem might be the fact that it’s surrounded by China, Russia, and Korea.
the earth is not flat you could travel to america through the pacific ocean, and it's an island which makes invading it a bigger effort.
😂😂😂
Wrong not Korea. In fact Korea is surrounded by China Russia and Japan
@@javiedkawification No, Korea is definitely one of the countries that surrounds Japan.
And yes, Korea is surrounded by those three.
It would be more correct to say that Korea is surrounded by those countries, since they're in the right middle of those countries. China in the west, Russia in the north, and Japan in the east.
Actually, Japan's geography is beneficial too. Thanks to it being an island nation, it is nearly impossible to invade it successfully.
Cough Philippines and Hawaii cough
It is more about the mountains than about being an island nation.
The Mongols did manage to invade & conquer some of the island(s) like Tsushima but they didnt fully succeed their invasion cus of the Typhoons lol
Not with todays technology

Located in the center of Russia China North Korea Japan and Taiwan. That would suck. The reason why they have to spend a lot on their military.
