Where did the Japanese culture originate?
Is Japan more like the Great Britain or Germany?
The difference between the Great Britain and Germany:
The Great Britain: different parts, different cultures, united and dominated by one part, England.
Germany: different parts, the same culture, united and dominated once by Prussia but now a federation.
During the evolution of Japan, is there a place in Japan that has more influence on the Japanese way of life than other parts?
If yes, where is that place?
