    I am Polish. Japan saved 765 Polish orphans in 1920 and 1922. The orphan was in Siberia. Japanese continued to rescue Polish orphans in Siberia. The smallest orphan that Japan saved was a two-year-old child. Polish orphans were sent to Japan for treatment. Japan fed the Polish orphans a hot meal every day. All Polish orphans have recovered. Japan continued to love Polish orphans very much. All Japanese donated money to save Polish orphans. Polish orphans were always smiling. Japan has successfully returned 765 Polish orphans to Poland.
    I will not forget this story. Thanks to Japan. God bless Japan.

      日本の外交官である杉原千畝のエピソードですね。私の曽祖父もその時ポーランドの皆さんの為に寄付をしたそうです。恐らく当時の日本中の殆どの人々が、貴国民を心から応援しました。両国の距離は地理的に遠く離れていますが、非常に強い共感と絆があります。日本人は同じことがあっても再びあなた達を助けると思います。そういう国民性だからです🇯🇵🤝🇵🇱

    Even as time goes by and the surface of a town changes, nothing changes in the underlying foundation of the unique Japanese culture.
    The common root of the creation of originality in Japanese culture is the uniqueness of its geopolitical location and the influence of its natural environment.
    Even if they import culture and knowledge from abroad, they are not dominated by it, and after a certain period of time, they select the content, integrate it with their own culture, improve it, and eventually create a new style because of the influence of their unique natural environment.
    Japan's original country name "NIPPON”means "the land under the sun" , but another name is "YAMATO ,WA” , meaning “Peacefull Harmony among People and Nature”. So Japan's name means “the Land under the Sun” and” the Land of "Great Harmony of People and Nature,”
    The history of Japan is very old, about 2,000 years since the Emperor's reign, but humans began to live in villages and communities in this island nation about 14,000 years ago, during “the JOMON pottery” culture. (That's 30,000 years ago, if you count the Neolithic period.)
    Surrounded on all sides by the sea and geographically isolated from the Eurasian continent in the Pacific Ocean, this island nation has a warm and humid climate, and because it is a volcanic island, it is blessed with abundant underground clear water resources, diverse vegetation, and fishery resources.
    For this reason, people have lived here for tens of thousands of years, enjoying the abundant nature and living in peace with nature.
    Since ancient times, the people of this land have respected human harmony and have lived in peace by working together as a group.
    However, while the natural environment of this island nation is rich to live, it is also harsh to live and has both light and dark sides.
    They have shared and enjoyed the blessings of nature by pooling their wisdom and collectively overcoming numerous severe and harsh natural disasters, such as frequent volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunami, summer typhoons, and heavy snowfall in winter.
    This is because this island nation has a harsh natural environment that cannot be overcome by a single person.
    Individual power is too weak to face the onslaught of nature, which can destroy the wealth we have built overnight.
    Therefore, They believed that many people should suppress their egos, avoiding confrontation, and work together to create a livable environment and maintain public cleanliness, and then work together to prevent disasters before they occur and to restore the environment immediately after they have occurred.
    They believed that this is the most wise, efficient, and rational way to maintain peace and freedom in each other's lives, this would bring about better results rather than to create more chaos by insisting on each other's selfishness.
    because of the environment in which disasters frequently occur that cannot be resolved by individual power alone. And this thinkings have given rise to Japan's unique teachings, culture, and behavior.
    For example, it is fundamentally connected to the Japanese mindset of "Behaving in a way that does not bother others in public places," "Helping each other if someone is in trouble," and "Not doing bad things even if no one is watching."
    And one of the teachings of the ancient Shinto religion, "Purify yourself (kiyome) by getting rid of Defilement (kegare)," has been taken over today as a basic manner to "Not pollute even in public places," to “Always keep the environment clean”, and to make everyone, regardless of status or gender, feel comfortable equally.
    This is also the wisdom of living in the drastically changing natural environment unique to the island countries.
    And this wisdom has been formed into a unique Japanese culture over a long period of time.
    The ancient name of Japan, "YAMATO" or "WA" (peaceful harmony between people and nature), represents the wishes and reality of the people who have been trying to survive in the rich and harsh natural environment unique to island countries, which is different from the dry and stable land of the Eurasian continent.
    And it is in this ancient Japanese country name "WA,YAMATO" that the essence of Japanese culture, the origin and secret of its unique culture, which is very different from the cultures of other Asian countries on the continent, is hidden.
