Japanese Information
Japanese, is an island nation in
East Asia.
Japan consists of four main islands and
many smaller islands, notably Okinawa. Honshu,
by far the largest and most populated island,
is typically divided into five (or more)
regions. The other islands are not divided
into sub-regions in this section, so they
will constitute one region each. Thus, in
total, the regions most commonly used are:
-
Hokkaido - the snowy northern
frontier of Japan
-
Tohoku - northeastern
Honshu, for seafood, skiing and hot springs
-
Kanto - coastal plain
including the cities of Tokyo and Yokohama

Chubu - mountainous middle
region dominated by the Japan Alps and
Japan's fourth-largest city Nagoya

Honshu, a rural region best known for
the cities of Hiroshima and Shimonoseki
