	Japanese people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Domestic Japanese people primarily use Japanese, and their literacy rate is 99% according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan.
		The Japanese people's concern towards religion is mostly related to mythology, traditions, and neighborhood activities rather than the source of morality or the guideline for one's life, for which sometimes Confucianism, or even Taoism, tends to serve as the basis for the moral code.
		Japanese people's migration to the Americas started with migration to Hawaii in the first year of the Meiji era in 1868.

	“We the Japanese People” – A Reflection on Public Opinion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Older Japanese, though mostly born after the war, cannot completely dissociate the national flag with the image of militarist Japan, and they are struck by – even envious of – the carefree attitude with which the young wave the national flag at international sporting events.
		The Japanese foreign policy circle is seeking to strengthen the alliance with the United States as a hedge against the more fluid and unpredictable post-Cold War international world and, in the neighborhood, against the rise of China and anxious North Korea.

	American Experience \| Bataan Rescue \| People & Events
		On December 14, 1945, Japanese soldiers forced 150 American prisoners of war at a compound on Palawan into an air-raid shelter.
		Some people were shot for no reason at all, so you never knew how to assess the situation, whether you should try to lead a low profile.
		It also became clear after the war that the Japanese were responsible for horrific abuses of POWs aboard tankers leaving the Philippines and bound for Japan.

	Japanese language and history by ALS International (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Among these languages, Korean is most frequently compared to Japanese, as both languages share significant key features such as general structure, vowel harmony, lack of conjunctions, and the extensive use of honorific speech, in which the hierarchical rank of the listener heavily affects the discourse.
		Japanese also shares considerable similarities with the languages of the Ryukyu Islands, within which Okinawa is located, although the Ryukyu languages and Japanese are also mutually unintelligible.
		Another influence of current note is the generation gap that exists relative to Japanese language use-today's younger generation is tending to favor the utilization of more neutral and informal speech, ignoring the importance of the role of honorific and gender-specific speech regarded important in traditional Japanese.

	People's Daily Online -- Full-text: Chinese president's speech on war victory commemoration
		The Chinese people are proud of the great victory of their war of resistance, and of the great victory of the Anti-Fascist War they fought together with the peoples of the world as well.
		Japanese aggressors devastated large tracts of Chinese territory and occupied most of the major cities, attempting to colonize China and on that basis, annex the rest of Asia and dominate the world.
		People from various political parties, ethnic groups, classes, social strata and organizations all rose to fight the common enemy at a time of this national crisis, so the flames of war against Japanese aggression were ablaze all over the country.

		The Ainu look like Caucasian people, they have white skin, their hair is wavy and thick, their heads are mesocephalic (round) and a few have grey or blue eyes.

		The Ainu are a people with a cultural and racial background which is different from that of the ethnic Japanese.

		It was from the mouth of this Japanese emmissary that Sui Emperor Yangdi confirmed the existence of Ryukyu, an island to the southwest of Japan.
		Japanese, whom history chronicles repeatedly likened to the tattoo natives of the Yangtze Delta, had an interesting name for one of their four islands, i.e., Kyushu, a name that literally means the "nine prefectures", which conincides with Xia Dynasty Overlord Yu's nine cauldrons.

		The origins of the Japanese people and language are unusally difficult to trace, but this post makes a good beginning overview to the issues and periods involved.
		Calling this oldest known form "Old Japanese", this message is about the time before that, how this language was formed and where the people who spoke this language came from--about the origin and prehistory of the Japanese people and language.
		When these people came to the Yamato region (in Nara prefecture), is not yet known clearly, but their orally inherited myths talk about the war when they came east to settle in Yamato.

		Overall, we found that the Japanese people were very friendly and helpful to us and we certainly didn't find them at all hostile towards us.
		The Japanese are actually quite like the British in the way that they continue to jabber away at you anyway despite the fact that you can't understand a word they are saying.

	Japanese recipes and healthy food

		And yet - the Japanese are among the healthiest and most long-lived people on Earth, certainly among industrialised nations, despite high levels of pollution, stress, tobacco and alcohol.
		That is the whole point: too many people neglect or even abuse their bodies, thinking that if they fall ill (as they surely will) the doctors can make everything all right.

	The American Experience \| MacArthur \| People & Events \| Creation of the Japanese Constitution (1945-1946)
		On October 4, 1945, toward the end of a meeting with MacArthur, a high-ranking Japanese cabinet member asked whether the supreme commander had any instructions "about the make-up of the government." The translator mistakenly used the word "constitution" for "make-up," and the official left thinking that MacArthur had commissioned him to draft a new constitution.
		The Japanese did go to work, but MacArthur rejected their efforts in early February 1946 as "nothing more than a rewording of the old Meiji constitution." Eager to avoid interference from other allies, MacArthur took matters into his own hands.
		That fall, after the Japanese people had voted overwhelmingly for candidates who backed the new consitution, Hirohito himself promulgated it before the Diet (Japanese Parliament).

		Japanese people talk very fast, and this fact is reflected in these recordings.

		I always thought (possibly incorrectly) that when MacArthur ran occupied Japan after WW2, most of the existing puritanical laws regarding pornography were introduced, which later led to all of the weird fetish stuff that was outside of the realm of what was considered obscene by law.
		So if those laws regarding the blurring of genatalia weren't introduced, Japanese would probably be jerking it to regular porno now, instead of inventing all sorts of tentacle rape cartoon porn to get around the laws.
		The Japanese are so formal and reserved in their day-to-day lives that they require more extreme perversions to cope with the frustration of everyday life.
