I am from mainland China, and I like Japanese culture very much. One of the main reasons is that Japan has not experienced China's Mongolian descent to the south and Manchu Qing entry, so it has retained a lot of traditional culture and East Asian culture. Reminds me of the former Tang Empire, powerful, beautiful, peaceful and free Maybe there are many historical problems between our two nations, and some of them are not perfectly resolved now, but I think the Chinese nation and the Yamato nation are friends and relatives for thousands of years. In the hundreds of years of the decline of the modern East, modern Japan will It is a good example for China and one of the references for modern Chinese political reform. The former students are now our teachers.
The Yuan and Qing dynasties are also part of East Asian culture. Chinese culture does not consist only of the Han Chinese. In addition, China has developed by completely destroying the traces and culture of the previous dynasty (previous power) every time the dynasty changed, and the bloodline was extinguished. The main cause of cultural destruction in modern China is the Cultural Revolution led by the Communist Party of China, Mao Zedong. This is also a “destructive culture” brought about by the harsh continental society, and it is a form of culture. Unlike continental nations, where it is easy to migrate by land, and where conflicts, eliminations, and purges occur among immigrants, in island nations, most people have no choice but to live together rather than clash, eliminate, or purge. A confined and closed society in an island country, this is also good and bad. We must understand that China and Japan are not relatives, but merely neighbors. Hopefully we are good neighbors.
@@rikipu01 You can study the blood relationship between the two nationalities of China and Japan by yourself. Today’s Japanese basically migrated from the mainland, and the native Japanese are assimilated, just like southern China. In addition, Xu Fu and Jianzhen brought a lot of Han Chinese genes to Japan in the feudal era, and there are many such examples, so the blood relationship of East Asians is as close as that of Europeans
my favorite country ever. miss this wonderful nation. i lived in japan for 3 years. 2.5 years in chiba near tokyo, and 8 months in a small valley town named tendo in yamagata. despite being just appx 300km apart, both are having very different climate. tokyo is hot, humid, and stormy during the summer, you just simply can't leave the apartment without an umbrella! winter in tokyo is much sunnier, cool and pleasant with very rare and little amount of snow, you can just go around without wearing a knit hat. in fact, the sea water in tateyama beach (the very southernmost tip of chiba, far away from the city) is still warm due to the effect of kuroshio current ! amazing isn't it? yamagata on the other hand, is freezing cold(not as cold as ukraine) and very snowy during the winter ! And the winter is much longer than tokyo, the snowfall starts to occur as early as november. the snow can last until the mid of march, where most of the places in japan are already enjoying the blooming of sakura. according to my coworkers, the region in nagano and the island of hokkaido are much more snowier than here! very distinct variation of weather, given the size of this country. would like to travel to japan as a tourist again in future. too many places have yet to explore!

i travelled to Japan last week, and i've experienced the traditional Japanese culture and cuisine, these Japanese cultures are kept very well, and Japan is very clean, especially in the lavatory, almost there is no trash bin in the street, this quality education should be learned.
As a Brit who has been living in the heart of Tokyo for 24 years, the most fascinating thing about its people is that just when i think I know everything about them, I learn something new.
One of the best and the most complete documentary i could have only asked for and so little respect for the work, I am extremely grateful and would be very glad to see any new video from you!
Wow man! Really clear way of presenting the information about Japan, in chronological order and even including the climate. I absolutely love the way this video has been made. I appreciate your efforts and thank you for making this, quite literally, art.
Thank you so much for that considered comment! Yes, I try to create "art" rather than just spiel off a load of facts! Hope you enjoy my other "Nation States".
Your welcome! I'm planning to look at the other ones yes. Is there any specific country in Europe you might be making a video about next? Example: Scandinavian countries, Netherlands, economic powerhouse germany, liechtenstein/Luxembourg etc. Either way have a nice day! Definitely wasn't expecting a reaction to a 2 year old video :D
This is the most well explained and comprehensively documented UA-cam video I've ever watched. Thanks a lot for making after it and spending time doing research, Geodiode!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much Cyril. Your track was really inspiring, and I did my best to match your music with the right imagery. Of course, you are more than welcome to promote the inclusion of your work here in your marketing material in any way you need.
Japan is a really interesting country! I studied abroad there during college, and it was one of the most fun experiences I've ever had. I've been studying Japanese for a few years now, and hope to go back eventually once the whole pandemic situation is sorted out. Love your videos, thanks for making them!
I love Japan. Been there 26yrs ago n plan to visit again in the near future. Its an amazing country that has so much to offer the world thru its arts, traditions, wonderful landscapes, creativity, cuisine n warm friendly people. Its a timeless wonder n fascinates any visitor to this nation. Amazing Japan. Thank u for this great video . Hope to see more videos on Japan.💮🇯🇵💮

Exactly specially regarding "establishing democracy and trying war criminals" in Japan is so misleading and half truth considering how most of the imperial Japan commanders such as Nobusuke Kishi, Eisakue Sato, etc(who became the PM of Japan) had all of their charges dropped completely despite them carrying out genocide in the puppet Japanese state of Manchuko and the revised Japanese constitution stole Japan's sovereignty from the Japanese to US under the garb of making Japan a country without an army(which would've been a good thing if all of Japan's war criminals and monarchy was abolished and powers were given back to it's citizens) And the Japanese economy didn't just collapse because of stock market crash, it did because west's direct coercion by various channels to destabilise their economy in order to maintain western hegemony in the world
Because he mentioned the cruelty of the Japanese army during World War II, forcing women to be comfort women, killing, burning, looting ，massacres.These dark histories that your Japanese schools will not teach the younger generation.
A country nuked twice, facing several challenges yet dominating tech , automobiles and many more industries and always comes as a pioneer in new innovations..... You can't stop admirering them.
As a Japanese, I don’t know why some American people still adhere to the myth that the atomic bomb forced Japan to surrender. It was Soviet Union participation that forced Japan to surrender. The Japanese government was not shaken by Nagasaki on August 9th as with Hiroshima on August 6th. They were rather shocked by the participation of Soviet Union that they had asked to mediate peace, and then they understood that there was no other way but to surrender. This has already been settled academically by revealed various documents. The atomic bomb was completely unnecessary.
In Japan you learn a history that in most cases does not reflect the reality of what happened. It's not the first time that I read comments like this from Japanese who interpret history in their own way.
@@jonasn6550 What I said is what American scholars have already proven. Unlike Japanese right-wingers, I have no intention of denying the Nanjing Massacre, the 731 Units, or the death march of Bataan, because they are academically proven. And for the same reason, I think the atomic bomb was meaningless. About the use of atomic bomb, there are many papers in English which has often been cited so why don't you look them up?
Your comments on the beauty of Japans refined arts vs the extreme brutality within its history are well noted and a complete paradox that few can explain
I live in Wakayama prefecture, in а small town, amongst the mountains, rivers, Shinto temples, mystic places. I think this world would be absolutely dull without Japan. Take care.
Wow. Just wow. This series are starting of incredible. Keep it up. Also although i really enjoyed the swedish one, this one is even better en looks more proffesional and thought through!

You’ve done an amazing job in summarizing the entire history, the geography, and the beautiful yet complex culture of Japan into this short video. I don’t think anyone could do a better job🎉 This is a great way for anyone to learn and understand about Japan before visiting. I’m Japanese and there were some things I didn’t know and had a great time watching this. Thank you for your marvelous work❣️
AMAZING DOCUMENTARY!!! You covered so much valuable information and to the point. I am part Japanese and did my first trip to Japan last month. Amazing place!
Жапон мәдениеті - әлемдегі ең жарқын және әлемге танылған мәдениеттердің бірі. Бұл Шығыс Азия мен Батыстың күрделі үйлесімді мәдениеті болғанымен, оның орталығы әдет-ғұрыптар мен өнерге бай. Каллиграфияға, иллюстрацияға, кескіндемеге, түстерді ұйымдастыруға, дизайнға, поэзияға, театрға және киімге ерекше жапондық көзқарас әлемді таң қалдыруда және бонсай, хайку, икебана, кабуки, оригами, гейша, кимоно және караоке секілді жапонның көп сөздері ағылшын тілінде көрініс тапты. Жапондық самурайлардың көптеген жылдар бойы соғыстағы костюмдері, дәстүрлері мен қарулары, әсіресе 16 ғасырдағы соғыс кезеңіндегі мәдениетінің танымалдығы жылдан жылға Жапон жанкүйерлерін көбейтуде. Каратэ, сумо, айкидо және кендо, дзюдо секілді халықаралық деңгейдегі Жапон жекпе-жек түрлері өте танымал және бүкіл әлемдегі мектептерде оқытылады. Соңғы уақытта жаһандық ықпал Жапониядан келуде, ол 1970-ші жылдардан бастап осы нарықта көш бастап келеді, электронды индустрияға өзінің негізгі өнер дәстүрлерімен және видео ойын индустриясымен ықпал етуде. Жапондық мультфильмдер мен комикстер, яғни манга және аниме-бұл өткен уақыттан басталған иллюстрация дәстүрінің соңғы көрінісі және қазір ел ішінде ғана емес бүкіл әлемде үлкен аудиторияға ие. Еуропа немесе Солтүстік Американың киноиндустриясы секілді Жапония киносыда өте ескі және оның алтын ғасыры 1950 жылдары, себебі бұл жылы Куросаваның жеті самурайы фильмі кино тарихындағы ең жақсы фильмдердің бірі ретінде танылған болатын. Годзилла туралы айтпасқа болмас. Годзилла - ядролық сәулеленуге ие теңіз құбыжығы. Мен тіпті тамақ туралы айтпадым. Ғасырлар бойы жапон асxанасы өте ерекше болып табылады, бүкіл әлемге танылған тағамдары рамен кеспесі, қуырылған темпура, терияки еті мен суши болды. Шикі балық етін тек жеуге болатындай ғана емес, сонымен қатар оны өте дәмді етіп жасау - мақтауға лайық. Еуразия құрлығының шығыс шетінде оқшауланған салыстырмалы түрде кішкентай ел үшін Жапонияның жаһандық танымалдығы, әрине, таңқаларлық. Бұл елді, оның тарихын және ұзақ уақыт бойы искуссивті зерттеген гайдзин ретінде Мен әлі күнге дейін елдің және оның халқының негізгі мәнін түсінуге тырысып келемін. Жапония қандай ел? Жапондықтар кімдер? Шығыс елдерінің көп бөлігі батыстық мәдениетті өзінің ұлттық бай тарихи дәстүрлерімен және өнерімен біріктіреді. Қалайша елдің тариxта болған қатыгездігімен қоса оның жұмсақтығы мен нәзіктігін біріктіруге болады. Жапония - ғажайып сиқырға толы мекен, және мемлекет болашақтада осы атпен қала бермек.

Thank you so much for your efforts in producing this wonderful documentary. I enjoyed it so much . Big thanks & much appreciated 😘 Isn’t Japan incredible!!
Great documentary, the only thing I disagree with is the Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It was not necessary and there is enough documented evidence in the US and Japan to prove this. The Americans wanted to use those bombs, no matter what. The amount of time and resources used to study the aftermath and not to cure the victims of their suffering proves it. I've been to Japan many times and love the people and its culture.
It is a view I am aware of, and partially subscribe to. I was careful to state "it was reported that" regarding the casualties of a full-scale invasion so that it was not shown to be my opinion. My videos are not about historical revisionism - there are plenty of other channels that take that view. Perhaps in the fullness of time the "official" history will see the bombings in a very different light, one much more critical of their usage that resulted in such horror for the civiliians of these cities.

Thank you for the amazing video. I could see my country from your point of view. 20:35 The snow in Niigata reminds me of the first sentence of Yasunari Kawabata’s novel, “Snow Country”. “The train came out of the long tunnel into the snow country.” Like this sentence, after passing the long tunnel from Gunma to Niigata in winter, there is suddenly the snowy country…! I like the very different landscape of Japan depending on the season and the regions.
I have been in many countries, including Japan. Of all of them, to an American, Japan impressed me as the most foreign, but also the most delightful. They also make the best kitchen knives that on can buy, albeit expensive. I have also collected a large selection of images of Japanese woodblock art, mostly Kewase Hasui.
Well done. I may not have seen it, but a video about the people of Japan would be of interest. Their respect for others, their neighborhoods, their country and their traditions make them a wonderful society. We spend months in Japan each year and enjoy each stay.
Every day I’m thinking of moving to Japan some day in the future and every day I am fascinated by history from its empire to its background to how it got started and every single day every single day I am always saying to myself one day this dream will come true and I will always keep that in my heart I will keep that is my goal to move to Japan every day I say it’s always going to happen I don’t know when but it will
@@Geodiode yes and I understand why that people like you wouldn’t want to move considering that it is expensive but I’m gonna try my very best I’m gonna try so hard and see what I can do because I am breaking myself in the future to go to Japan because it’s a way more quiet country it’s not that crazy it’s not gonna treat you with disrespect they treat you with respect over there there’s the nicest people on the planet
@@Geodiode but also I understand why they want to be peaceful and respectful about what they do and do not really care about what other people think but they just surprised me with their culture and their history in there life and the way they live that way in captivates mean to something I like every day I always say one little thing I want to be just like to be just like them I know they want to keep their personal privacy on the islands but you only way it depends different from the world again is that they don’t disrespect you I’m not gonna disrespect them when I go there sometime probably in the future and I like it when somebody likes their own thing it’s OK if you like your own thing but people need to understand us there’s always gonna be people that Are interested in what people do from certain countries but it’s real hard I know in fact I know a UA-camr named Pablo from Tokyo and he is the most interesting UA-camr I have ever seen
I really like these videos of yours! Informative yet quite light! And perfect for me, I live in Sweden and plan to move to Japan, you started with my favourite countries!

This video is ok, but I have one problem with the history section: the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings weren’t done because Japan wouldn’t have surrendered otherwise, and Japan did not surrender because of the Atomic bombs dropped on those two cities. These are two inaccurate but unfortunately very commonly believed myths. The truth is that the allies had agreed earlier that year that the Soviet Union would declare war on Japan and invade in August. The US dropped the two atomic bombs to send a message to the Soviet Union. And Japan did not surrender because of the atomic bombings. They surrendered because of the Soviet declaration of war on Japan. The UA-camr Shaun made a good video on this topic, it’s called “Dropping the Bomb: Hiroshima and Nagasaki”. I highly recommend anyone reading this watch it. There’s also a Foreign Policy article titled “The Bomb Didn’t Beat Japan… Stalin Did” which is also pretty good.
Amazing mini documentary and despite already knowing a lot about Japan I learned considerably more about one of my favourite countries in the world. Nice that you also included my favorite anime that I am currently watching with K - BAKU!! - 29:39

This is the reason why Japan is my dream country 😍😍 everything is beautiful in japan this country is amazing not just for their Hi-Tech and modern technologies beautiful places,and for being polite 😍😍😍
What a comprehensive topic! Japan has such a rich history, stretching from ancient times through various periods, each with its own unique cultural and historical significance. The geography of Japan is equally fascinating, with its beautiful islands, mountains, and seas. Its economy is a global powerhouse, known for innovation and technology. And the culture - from traditional arts like tea ceremonies and sumo wrestling to modern manga and anime - is admired worldwide. It's always exciting to learn about the diverse aspects that make Japan such a remarkable country! 🌸🗾💼🎌
This taught me so much about Japanese history!!! i was oblivious to all of that previously. How beautiful are the landscapes of Japan wow .... what amazing scenes from Sapporo and Nigata, such infamous heavy snow makes for some insane pictures. Thank you again for all the effort you put in :)

I am planning to visit Japan for 3 weeks with my wife. I chanced upon your video! Yes, it is full of information and very well made. Thank you:)) It is fascinating to see the re-emergence of Japan after WWII. How did this happen? Who were the leaders who had his long term vision? Similarly it is equally sad to see the Lost Decade and the struggles of the Japanese society over the past several years. Expected population decline would be another big problem to address? Back to your video, may I request you to think about and make a video on The Spiritual Japan- Past and Present? Arigatou gozaimasu
Explanation of Jomon oeriod is correct. And Jomon DNA has been continueing until present era. We Japanese are Jomon race. Don't forget invasion of Mongolia in 1274,1281. This narration said what Japan occupied Korea. But Japan had never fought against Korea to annex. In 1894 Japan released Korea from Qing-china by the victory of Sino-Japanese war. Korea had been slavish dependency of China for 1000 years long. Japan supported to establish Korean empire in 1895. Soon Korea had approached to Russia and Korea owed huge debt from Russia. So Russia took advantage of Korea in stead of the debt to build fortress inKorea. If Russia got colony on Korean peninsula, the security of the sea of Japan must be empty. So Russo-Japanese war began in 1904. Japan won Russia completely in 1905. If Japan had an ambition of territory, Japan must annex Korea in 1905. But Japan denied Korea's offer to join Japan.

@@Geodiode Thank you for replying to me! Yes, sure. I'll introduce this video to my friend who take Geography class in my high school. Oh, the Japanese subtitles were written by yourself. Amazing and surprising 💓😊. お返事ありがとうございます！はい、勿論です。私の高校で地理の授業を受けている友達に紹介しますね。この日本語字幕、ご自身で書かれたんですね、すごいし驚きです💓😊
The impact of Japan on the world is unbelievable compare to it's size and protectionism. It's still boggles my mind how they interact with the world while being so protective with their culture!
@@Geodiode fair point actually. Hope it gets more traction soon. Japan otherwise seem like something that a lot of people have interest in. Hope the best for you :D
The history up to the start of World War II and the history after that is an old view of history. Taiwan was ceded from Qing by the Sino-Japanese War, and South Korea was legally annexed by the Japan-Korea Merger Treaty. We were recruiting comfort women. It was not forced.
Kon'nichiwa everyone! I hope you enjoyed this video as it almost killed me producing it! Please let me know your thoughts about this beautiful and inspiring country, whether you are Japanese or "Gaijin" ;), whether you live or have travelled there

元朝清朝，还是用汉族的文字文化国家制度以及历史，按中国的朝代排序下来，以示正统，灭国并不是这样的，如日本，灭国琉球，你的文字文化历史全部消失。中国在2000年秦朝就完成了这些工作，2000年以前，秦朝的领土就到了越南，即中国是一个中央帝国，游牧民族当皇帝，还那那个帝国。但是清朝，对文化的审美直接拉到了庸俗的底部，大红大绿的，游牧民族，吃饱饭就不错了，

こんなに、詳しく忠実に日本を紹介して頂き有難うございます。他国の方から見える日本の世界は、日本人もとても興味深いです。
Thank you!
海外の人が作る日本の紹介動画で、はじめて全部日本のBGMだったかも。(だいたい中国の音楽が入ってる)
日本について、すごい調べてくれているっていうのが伝わってくる。漫画・アニメ文化で「古来から」っていう部分がでてきてびっくりしちゃった。日本人の私ですら最近知ったことなのに、この解説で出てきたからねー
(日本のキャラクター文化は、神道の「何にでも命がやどる」という考えから、本来生き物でないものにも顔を描いても生き物と感じられる文化から来たって動画で見た ←岡田斗司夫さん)
あと、最後の方におばあちゃんたちが並んでゲームしてるのとか、秋葉の映像で思わず吹いたｗｗｗ
すごい良い動画だった！
実は同じくわたしも（笑）真っ先にそれに気がついて珍しくてハッとしました。嬉しいですね✨
しかしやはりというべきか白人視点の世界史だったね。明治維新もポルトガルもさっと流して

米国潜水艦のドキュメントで堂々と日本兵捕虜にしなかったと語っていた。
そして非武装民間人狙った空襲と原爆を正当化。お決まりやね。白人の残虐さには及ばない負けるよ。
Love Japan from Malaysia🇯🇵❤️🇲🇾
我来自中国大陆，我非常喜欢日本的文化，其中一个主要原因，是因为日本没有经历过中国的蒙古南下和满清入关，使其保留了很多的传统文化和东亚文化。让我联想到了曾经的大唐帝国，强大美丽又和平自由
也许我们两个民族之间有很多历史问题，甚至有一些现在都没有完美解决，但是我觉得中华民族和大和民族是几千年的朋友和亲戚，在近代东方衰落的几百年，现代日本会是中国很好的榜样，也是现代中国政治改革的一个借鉴对象之一，曾经的学生如今已经是我们的老师了啊
as a Japanese, I’m happy to read it！ 🇯🇵🤝🇨🇳
日本人ですが中国が大好きですよ
中国の文化は最高です。
仲良くしたいですね！
错误的，日本文化是和族综合了中华，东南亚，以及荷兰/葡萄牙为代表的西方文化所形成的独立文化，你只能说日本独立发展了优秀的文化，而这文化中有一部分中华文化的影子，而不能将其认为是大唐文化。元清非中国论（明修元史，共和国接纳宣统就是正统认证的证明）本身就是日本帝国为了侵略而创造的，中华与北亚，中亚民族的交流从来就没有断过。最后，现代日本的路又不是没有学过，结论是走不通，在岛国上发展出的政治逻辑是无法应用在大陆上的。日本人には、湯武革命をまだしていないがら、天下のことを理解できない

Japan is a very mysterious country. I was lucky to visit there several years ago. I can feel a completely different cultural atmosphere
The country of Japan is very popular so I dont think it is that "mysterious" these days
One of the best documentaries, precise and concise and encompass almost everything.
Thanks!
my favorite country ever. miss this wonderful nation. i lived in japan for 3 years. 2.5 years in chiba near tokyo, and 8 months in a small valley town named tendo in yamagata. despite being just appx 300km apart, both are having very different climate.
tokyo is hot, humid, and stormy during the summer, you just simply can't leave the apartment without an umbrella! winter in tokyo is much sunnier, cool and pleasant with very rare and little amount of snow, you can just go around without wearing a knit hat. in fact, the sea water in tateyama beach (the very southernmost tip of chiba, far away from the city) is still warm due to the effect of kuroshio current ! amazing isn't it?
yamagata on the other hand, is freezing cold(not as cold as ukraine) and very snowy during the winter ! And the winter is much longer than tokyo, the snowfall starts to occur as early as november. the snow can last until the mid of march, where most of the places in japan are already enjoying the blooming of sakura. according to my coworkers, the region in nagano and the island of hokkaido are much more snowier than here! very distinct variation of weather, given the size of this country. would like to travel to japan as a tourist again in future. too many places have yet to explore!
Japan is really a beautiful country!

japan n japanese are beautiful - the war hawks get japan wartorn n japanese killed
------------
usa got nuke revenge but china korea myanmar phillippine singapore ... asia must have reparation or revenge - victims n criminals are dead but nations are still around n only nations war so they'll come for revenge any time - to prevent that japan can easily do:-
1 don't elect warhawks or war criminal decendants like abe or present pm
2 burn war criminal shrine n build one for peaceful leaders
3 pay victim nations 70mil equivalent of the day n be free from usa "protection" forever - usa knock japan down from #1 in the 80's with a hua wei - evil usa - shut down usa bases n kick them out of japan waters - japan only bomb pearl harbor a military outpost not mainland usa - usa nuke 2 japanese big cities hiroshima n nagasaki
4 fact in text bks
5 don't arm up - use the money in economy - if u arm up asia can preemptive strike/revenge

I’m a gaijin who lived almost ten years total in Japan and I applaud you for capturing so much of Japan in such a short video. Very well done.
Thanks very much! And sorry for the late reply

Hola gente de Japón les saludo al otro extremo de uds. Sudamérica, me encanta su país
ありがとう！私もあなたたちを愛しています！ from Japan
Y encuentro formidable como escriben
Eu sou brasileira e amo o Japão e o japonês, a cultura e sua culinária. Espero poder conhecer um dia esse país❤
i travelled to Japan last week, and i've experienced the traditional Japanese culture and cuisine, these Japanese cultures are kept very well, and Japan is very clean, especially in the lavatory, almost there is no trash bin in the street, this quality education should be learned.
Thanks for sharing!
As a Brit who has been living in the heart of Tokyo for 24 years, the most fascinating thing about its people is that just when i think I know everything about them, I learn something new.
You nailed it! I feel the same way! Congrats on your impending silver anniversary of living there!
@@Geodiode Thank you. And keep up the good work with all your videos. They're all very interesting and informative
You Brits better be behaving yourself when travels to Japan and Netherlands Got it! ☺️
One of the best and the most complete documentary i could have only asked for and so little respect for the work, I am extremely grateful and would be very glad to see any new video from you!
Wow, thank you! I hope you enjoy the rest of my content!
Already itching for the next Nation States video to come out!
Japan had surrendered before launching a nuclear bomb, but the United States wanted to destroy Japan
Wouldn’t they have targeted more populous cities had they wanted to destroy Japan?

Thanks for the video! Japan is so beautiful! ❤❤
It really is!
Wow man! Really clear way of presenting the information about Japan, in chronological order and even including the climate. I absolutely love the way this video has been made. I appreciate your efforts and thank you for making this, quite literally, art.
Thank you so much for that considered comment! Yes, I try to create "art" rather than just spiel off a load of facts! Hope you enjoy my other "Nation States".
Your welcome! I'm planning to look at the other ones yes. Is there any specific country in Europe you might be making a video about next? Example: Scandinavian countries, Netherlands, economic powerhouse germany, liechtenstein/Luxembourg etc.
Either way have a nice day! Definitely wasn't expecting a reaction to a 2 year old video :D
This is the most well explained and comprehensively documented UA-cam video I've ever watched. Thanks a lot for making after it and spending time doing research, Geodiode!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Люди,живущие в гармонии с природой,всегда талантливы.Природа даёт силы.поэтому,так органично сочетание традиций и технологий.
Your film is just great! I plunged into the story. Glad you found my track useful in your documentary. It's an honor for me. Have a nice week.
Thank you very much Cyril. Your track was really inspiring, and I did my best to match your music with the right imagery. Of course, you are more than welcome to promote the inclusion of your work here in your marketing material in any way you need.
Very good documentary, it's respectful and fair that's the best way to present japan.
Thanks, and glad you enjoyed it
日本の歴史を紹介して下さりありがとうございました！
【日本が近隣の国々を奴隷のように扱い、惨たらしく殺した】と間違った情報を世界に発信されていますよ。
Japan is a really interesting country! I studied abroad there during college, and it was one of the most fun experiences I've ever had. I've been studying Japanese for a few years now, and hope to go back eventually once the whole pandemic situation is sorted out.
Love your videos, thanks for making them!
I want to go study there but I don’t know how it is
日本に住む日本人である私ですら、自国の文化の本質を確かめるには一生かかりそうだ。

@@Geodiode Yes! 👍😊
Good things and bad things live with this country.
I love Japan, Japan Banzai.
I’m a Japanese.
There are many different understandings from the facts about Japan’s history.
This is a stereotypical western view.
Exactly specially regarding "establishing democracy and trying war criminals" in Japan is so misleading and half truth considering how most of the imperial Japan commanders such as Nobusuke Kishi, Eisakue Sato, etc(who became the PM of Japan) had all of their charges dropped completely despite them carrying out genocide in the puppet Japanese state of Manchuko and the revised Japanese constitution stole Japan's sovereignty from the Japanese to US under the garb of making Japan a country without an army(which would've been a good thing if all of Japan's war criminals and monarchy was abolished and powers were given back to it's citizens)
And the Japanese economy didn't just collapse because of stock market crash, it did because west's direct coercion by various channels to destabilise their economy in order to maintain western hegemony in the world
Because he mentioned the cruelty of the Japanese army during World War II, forcing women to be comfort women, killing, burning, looting ，massacres.These dark histories that your Japanese schools will not teach the younger generation.
I think 11:42~12:20 is destotion.
The Japanese are the biggest dolphin killers in the world ..!!!!!! 🤮😭😢😢😥😨💔💔💔🐬🐬🐬🐬❤❤
A country nuked twice, facing several challenges yet dominating tech , automobiles and many more industries and always comes as a pioneer in new innovations..... You can't stop admirering them.
As a Japanese, I don’t know why some American people still adhere to the myth that the atomic bomb forced Japan to surrender. It was Soviet Union participation that forced Japan to surrender. The Japanese government was not shaken by Nagasaki on August 9th as with Hiroshima on August 6th. They were rather shocked by the participation of Soviet Union that they had asked to mediate peace, and then they understood that there was no other way but to surrender. This has already been settled academically by revealed various documents. The atomic bomb was completely unnecessary.
This is a hot topic. In retrospect I should have added the alternative view of events, compared to that which is "accepted" in the West.
In Japan you learn a history that in most cases does not reflect the reality of what happened. It's not the first time that I read comments like this from Japanese who interpret history in their own way.
@@jonasn6550 What I said is what American scholars have already proven. Unlike Japanese right-wingers, I have no intention of denying the Nanjing Massacre, the 731 Units, or the death march of Bataan, because they are academically proven. And for the same reason, I think the atomic bomb was meaningless. About the use of atomic bomb, there are many papers in English which has often been cited so why don't you look them up?
@@nile521 I will look them up. You are the first Japanese I meet who does not deny or try to somehow justify the historical events you mentioned
Interesting! I never knew. Thank you very much for enlightening us!!
Japan is excellent and beautiful country .
Your comments on the beauty of Japans refined arts vs the extreme brutality within its history are well noted and a complete paradox that few can explain
The Japan is my most favourite place in world and also an interesting place I hope to go Japan thanks for this video😊
My pleasure 😊
I live in Wakayama prefecture, in а small town, amongst the mountains, rivers, Shinto temples, mystic places. I think this world would be absolutely dull without Japan. Take care.
You are very lucky - sounds like a wonderful place to live. And yes, I can't imagine a world without the richness of Japanese culture.
I admire japan . Love from India
I was looking for a concise history of Japan....yours is the best. Now I have the basis for more detailed study. Thank you. Thumbs up.
Glad it was helpful! Perfect introduction to jump off into a more detailed study, which is what my intention is in making these docs

Жапон мәдениеті - әлемдегі ең жарқын және әлемге танылған мәдениеттердің бірі. Бұл Шығыс Азия мен Батыстың күрделі үйлесімді мәдениеті болғанымен, оның орталығы әдет-ғұрыптар мен өнерге бай. Каллиграфияға, иллюстрацияға, кескіндемеге, түстерді ұйымдастыруға, дизайнға, поэзияға, театрға және киімге ерекше жапондық көзқарас әлемді таң қалдыруда және бонсай, хайку, икебана, кабуки, оригами, гейша, кимоно және караоке секілді жапонның көп сөздері ағылшын тілінде көрініс тапты. Жапондық самурайлардың көптеген жылдар бойы соғыстағы костюмдері, дәстүрлері мен қарулары, әсіресе 16 ғасырдағы соғыс кезеңіндегі мәдениетінің танымалдығы жылдан жылға Жапон жанкүйерлерін көбейтуде. Каратэ, сумо, айкидо және кендо, дзюдо секілді халықаралық деңгейдегі Жапон жекпе-жек түрлері өте танымал және бүкіл әлемдегі мектептерде оқытылады. Соңғы уақытта жаһандық ықпал Жапониядан келуде, ол 1970-ші жылдардан бастап осы нарықта көш бастап келеді, электронды индустрияға өзінің негізгі өнер дәстүрлерімен және видео ойын индустриясымен ықпал етуде. Жапондық мультфильмдер мен комикстер, яғни манга және аниме-бұл өткен уақыттан басталған иллюстрация дәстүрінің соңғы көрінісі және қазір ел ішінде ғана емес бүкіл әлемде үлкен аудиторияға ие. Еуропа немесе Солтүстік Американың киноиндустриясы секілді Жапония киносыда өте ескі және оның алтын ғасыры 1950 жылдары, себебі бұл жылы Куросаваның жеті самурайы фильмі кино тарихындағы ең жақсы фильмдердің бірі ретінде танылған болатын. Годзилла туралы айтпасқа болмас. Годзилла - ядролық сәулеленуге ие теңіз құбыжығы. Мен тіпті тамақ туралы айтпадым. Ғасырлар бойы жапон асxанасы өте ерекше болып табылады, бүкіл әлемге танылған тағамдары рамен кеспесі, қуырылған темпура, терияки еті мен суши болды. Шикі балық етін тек жеуге болатындай ғана емес, сонымен қатар оны өте дәмді етіп жасау - мақтауға лайық. Еуразия құрлығының шығыс шетінде оқшауланған салыстырмалы түрде кішкентай ел үшін Жапонияның жаһандық танымалдығы, әрине, таңқаларлық. Бұл елді, оның тарихын және ұзақ уақыт бойы искуссивті зерттеген гайдзин ретінде Мен әлі күнге дейін елдің және оның халқының негізгі мәнін түсінуге тырысып келемін. Жапония қандай ел? Жапондықтар кімдер? Шығыс елдерінің көп бөлігі батыстық мәдениетті өзінің ұлттық бай тарихи дәстүрлерімен және өнерімен біріктіреді. Қалайша елдің тариxта болған қатыгездігімен қоса оның жұмсақтығы мен нәзіктігін біріктіруге болады. Жапония - ғажайып сиқырға толы мекен, және мемлекет болашақтада осы атпен қала бермек.
Revisited this video again whenever I were approaching subjects of Japanese geography, culture and economy. I hope you can one day made a video about france, my favorite European country and Germany next. Keep up the good work!

日本国民ながら ただただ美しい我が国です

Great documentary, the only thing I disagree with is the Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It was not necessary and there is enough documented evidence in the US and Japan to prove this. The Americans wanted to use those bombs, no matter what. The amount of time and resources used to study the aftermath and not to cure the victims of their suffering proves it. I've been to Japan many times and love the people and its culture.
It is a view I am aware of, and partially subscribe to. I was careful to state "it was reported that" regarding the casualties of a full-scale invasion so that it was not shown to be my opinion. My videos are not about historical revisionism - there are plenty of other channels that take that view. Perhaps in the fullness of time the "official" history will see the bombings in a very different light, one much more critical of their usage that resulted in such horror for the civiliians of these cities.
Which nation do you plan on doing next? I am totally anticipated for future episodes of this series.

Eu amo o Japão espero poder conhecer esse países tão diferente do Brasil 🇧🇷🇯🇵
Thank you for the amazing video. I could see my country from your point of view.
20:35 The snow in Niigata reminds me of the first sentence of Yasunari Kawabata’s novel, “Snow Country”.
“The train came out of the long tunnel into the snow country.”
Like this sentence, after passing the long tunnel from Gunma to Niigata in winter, there is suddenly the snowy country…!
I like the very different landscape of Japan depending on the season and the regions.
Thanks very much! Yes, the transition going from the east side to the west beneath the mountains, in winter, must be dramatic!
I have been in many countries, including Japan. Of all of them, to an American, Japan impressed me as the most foreign, but also the most delightful. They also make the best kitchen knives that on can buy, albeit expensive. I have also collected a large selection of images of Japanese woodblock art, mostly Kewase Hasui.
Their expertise in making the world's finest steel blades goes back earlier than any other nation
Well done. I may not have seen it, but a video about the people of Japan would be of interest. Their respect for others, their neighborhoods, their country and their traditions make them a wonderful society. We spend months in Japan each year and enjoy each stay.
Thank you. Yes, a fascinating people indeed. You're lucky to spend so much time there.
super 😷
Every day I’m thinking of moving to Japan some day in the future and every day I am fascinated by history from its empire to its background to how it got started and every single day every single day I am always saying to myself one day this dream will come true and I will always keep that in my heart I will keep that is my goal to move to Japan every day I say it’s always going to happen I don’t know when but it will
I think the same. But sadly it's very difficult to immigrate to Japan. They like their islands to themselves. And that's their right I guess.
@@Geodiode yes and I understand why that people like you wouldn’t want to move considering that it is expensive but I’m gonna try my very best I’m gonna try so hard and see what I can do because I am breaking myself in the future to go to Japan because it’s a way more quiet country it’s not that crazy it’s not gonna treat you with disrespect they treat you with respect over there there’s the nicest people on the planet
@@Geodiode but also I understand why they want to be peaceful and respectful about what they do and do not really care about what other people think but they just surprised me with their culture and their history in there life and the way they live that way in captivates mean to something I like every day I always say one little thing I want to be just like to be just like them I know they want to keep their personal privacy on the islands but you only way it depends different from the world again is that they don’t disrespect you I’m not gonna disrespect them when I go there sometime probably in the future and I like it when somebody likes their own thing it’s OK if you like your own thing but people need to understand us there’s always gonna be people that Are interested in what people do from certain countries but it’s real hard I know in fact I know a UA-camr named Pablo from Tokyo and he is the most interesting UA-camr I have ever seen
we welcome to you anytime you can move to Japan. we never change.
"Japan is as much of a mystery as it is a fascination". Eloquently put.
Thanks!

This video is ok, but I have one problem with the history section: the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings weren’t done because Japan wouldn’t have surrendered otherwise, and Japan did not surrender because of the Atomic bombs dropped on those two cities. These are two inaccurate but unfortunately very commonly believed myths. The truth is that the allies had agreed earlier that year that the Soviet Union would declare war on Japan and invade in August. The US dropped the two atomic bombs to send a message to the Soviet Union. And Japan did not surrender because of the atomic bombings. They surrendered because of the Soviet declaration of war on Japan. The UA-camr Shaun made a good video on this topic, it’s called “Dropping the Bomb: Hiroshima and Nagasaki”. I highly recommend anyone reading this watch it. There’s also a Foreign Policy article titled “The Bomb Didn’t Beat Japan… Stalin Did” which is also pretty good.
Thanks, all valid information. Please see my other comment I just made on this subject.

This is the reason why Japan is my dream country 😍😍 everything is beautiful in japan this country is amazing not just for their Hi-Tech and modern technologies beautiful places,and for being polite 😍😍😍
What a comprehensive topic! Japan has such a rich history, stretching from ancient times through various periods, each with its own unique cultural and historical significance. The geography of Japan is equally fascinating, with its beautiful islands, mountains, and seas. Its economy is a global powerhouse, known for innovation and technology. And the culture - from traditional arts like tea ceremonies and sumo wrestling to modern manga and anime - is admired worldwide. It's always exciting to learn about the diverse aspects that make Japan such a remarkable country! 🌸🗾💼🎌
This taught me so much about Japanese history!!! i was oblivious to all of that previously. How beautiful are the landscapes of Japan wow .... what amazing scenes from Sapporo and Nigata, such infamous heavy snow makes for some insane pictures. Thank you again for all the effort you put in :)

I am planning to visit Japan for 3 weeks with my wife. I chanced upon your video! Yes, it is full of information and very well made. Thank you:)) It is fascinating to see the re-emergence of Japan after WWII. How did this happen? Who were the leaders who had his long term vision? Similarly it is equally sad to see the Lost Decade and the struggles of the Japanese society over the past several years. Expected population decline would be another big problem to address? Back to your video, may I request you to think about and make a video on The Spiritual Japan- Past and Present? Arigatou gozaimasu
Explanation of Jomon oeriod is correct. And Jomon DNA has been continueing until present era. We Japanese are Jomon race. Don't forget invasion of Mongolia in 1274,1281.
This narration said what Japan occupied Korea. But Japan had never fought against Korea to annex. In 1894 Japan released Korea from Qing-china by the victory of Sino-Japanese war.
Korea had been slavish dependency of China for 1000 years long. Japan supported to establish Korean empire in 1895. Soon Korea had approached to Russia and Korea owed huge debt from Russia. So Russia took advantage of Korea in stead of the debt to build fortress inKorea. If Russia got colony on Korean peninsula, the security of the sea of Japan must be empty. So Russo-Japanese war began in 1904. Japan won Russia completely in 1905. If Japan had an ambition of territory, Japan must annex Korea in 1905. But Japan denied Korea's
offer to join Japan. In the first place, Japanese ex-minister ITO

Impressive, as always.
The history up to the start of World War II and the history after that is an old view of history.
Taiwan was ceded from Qing by the Sino-Japanese War, and South Korea was legally annexed by the Japan-Korea Merger Treaty.
We were recruiting comfort women.
It was not forced.
That is not what those countries themselves seem to think. Why do try to deny what has happened to those people?
