Japan's original country name "NIPPON”(Japan) means "the land under the sun" , but another name is "YAMATO(WA)” , meaning “Peacefully 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 by the sea on all four sides, geographically isolated from Eurasia continent in the Pacific Ocean this island nation has a warm and humid climate and is blessed with abundant clear water resources, a variety of plants, and fishery resources. Since ancient times, people have lived peacefully with nature. They have respected harmony, lived peacefully in groups, and overcome many severe natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and typhoons, with each other in groups based on their wisdom and have enjoyed the blessings of nature by cooperating. The name of the ancient Japanese nation of "YAMATO" or "WA" reflects the wishes and realities of the people to live and to survive in this natural environment of the island nation that differs from that of the Eurasia continent.

@@masag766 Thank you for your reply. There is a reason why the spirit of "harmony" has been handed down from ancient times in the island nation of Japan. It is because the location, natural environment, and living conditions of this island nation were harsh natural environments for individuals to live freely on their own. For people in past eras, who did not have the scientific knowledge and technology that we have today, there was a limit to what one person alone could do to survive peacefully in a natural environment with such harsh elements, and they needed the help of others and the need to cooperate with others. In cooperation with others we cannot be maintained without suppressing individual selfishness and self-indulgence in order to achieve mutual common goals. However, without group cooperation, it was impossible to take necessary measures to maintain peaceful daily life, such as early recovery from frequent large-scale natural disasters and disaster prevention. And even if we accept the disadvantages of suppressing private greed, it is much more efficient to take disaster countermeasures by group power, which reduces individual burdens and saves labor for individual work. This extremely rational decision led to the development of a culture of group collaboration and cooperation as a disaster countermeasure. (Three people working together can produce wisdom,(SANNIN YOREBA MONJYU NO CHIE), three arrows will not break,(SANBON NO YA), everyone is equally vulnerable, so when we are in trouble, we should help each other equally (KOMATTA TOKI WA OTAGAISAMA).) To avoid risk of death and maintain their tribes, they chose to live collectively. And to live collectively, they needed to be in harmony with others. To maintain this interdependent relationship, a spirit of equality and discipline of give and take was necessary. This is where the culture of "WA," a uniquely Japanese view of humanity in which people avoid conflict as much as possible and respect each other, was born. And by collectively taking measures to prevent and counteract the negative aspects of the natural environment, the spirit of harmony with nature, in which people mutually enjoy the blessings of the rich natural environment, the light side, has been wished for in the name of the country, "YAMATO". If only this harsh negative point could be cleared, the environment of this island nation of Japan was like heaven for living, blessed with abundant water resources and abundant food suitable for human habitation. This rich natural environment, with its positive aspects, is the reason why even the Paleolithic man of 30,000 years ago tried to settle on this island. However, light and shadow, heaven and hell, coexisted in the natural environment of this island nation. It is precisely this special and unique environment that gave birth to the unique behavior patterns and culture of island Japan, which is clearly different from the culture of the Eurasian continent, where aridity and stable land are basic and natural. Not only the genetic DNA factor, but also the experiential knowledge and accumulated adaptive behavior that comes from the special environmental conditions is another determinant factor that gives birth to human culture, thinking, and behavior patterns. Therefore, all foreigners who come to Japan for sightseeing should understand the essence of Japanese culture and the factors that formed it, which were formed by this dual nature of the natural environment. We should not overlook the fact that Japan's clean and safe environment does not exist from the beginning, but has been created and maintained by the people living in this island nation through their daily efforts. We should not think that Japan is a paradise just by looking at the surface. "When in Rome, do as the locals do." In this island nation, it is very dangerous not to follow the rules of the land.

@@brianchar-bow3273 Great insight. I think you are right in pointing out that Japanese qualities are necessary for survival in this rich and dangerous island nation. There is no difference in the original qualities of any human being. It is the climate, the society and culture that nurtures it that makes us socially adept.
