As we delve into Japan's economic journey, one thing becomes clear: innovation and adaptation are key to survival.

They are still around, but under different name and behind the shadows... Mostly are under the name of "The Master Trust Bank of Japan", a trust owned by Mitsubishi Bank (that literally owns everything in Japan with 3 trillions of dollars of assets under control). they are the biggest shareholders in Toyota, Softbank, Sony and mostly of the multi-billion Japanese corporations. And who are the owners of Mitsubishi? impossible to know due to the nature of the Keiretsu.

Will Japanese citizens give up claims to government pensions or will the government allow immigrants in to pay for them?
@millevenon58537 ай бұрын
They should be like Dubai and allow temporary immigrants
@redhidinghood93377 ай бұрын
And the answer is: the government will divert more of the money collected from (high) taxes from infrastructure, education, public services and long-term investments into the pensions/wellfare of seniors, who are the biggest voting block, while continuing to run bigger and bigger deficits until something triggers a crisis where everything falls apart and japan enters a very dark time.

I will admit japanese culture does posses a strong aspect of group/national identity and social cohesion in general. And that that aspect can lead to insular behaviours BUT!!! You can't start w/ perry. You have to preface w/ pre Euro, japan -korean peninsula/chinese mainland relations. Lots going on there. The sakkoku jidai wasn't even 300 years and was more a barrier to european cultural influence (read meddling esp missionaries) and attempt to control euro produced goods than being a truly closed country. just my 2 cents Also the Keizai Boom' period is fascinating and worth a close look. The infrastructure, architecture, consumer goods and media from that era is just chef's kiss. One a side note. If I put my armchair historian tin foil hat on, I would say that as long a the seat of Japanese power lies on Honshu, the country will always have ambitions towards the Korean peninsula. That is to say, I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to 'expand' again in the not so distant future (us military presence not withstanding).

@@atishayritulpatwa its an old idea from a hundred years ago, it wasnt good then it isnt good now. Batteries are not energy dense enough to compete with fossil fuels. You can only pack so much energy inside a battery before it becomes a bomb. It also just recieves electrical energy from powerplants who also just use fossil fuels and coal to generate electricity. So its just a roundabout way of using fossil fuels.

There's a lot more to that metthew perry story than just "they were impressed." Japan captured an american ship and wouldn't give it back. America essentially came up and said "what did you do to our ship" with a full armada. Japan did not like being so thoroughly humiliated, so they made an executive decision to modernize in all things. ... imperialism was one of those "modern things."
