Where did Japan buy a lot of land?

Japan's land area is only 378,000 square kilometers, but according to data, the land purchased in Brazil alone amounts to millions of square kilometers, which is dozens of times its land area. This does not count the land purchased by some countries in other regions, such as Africa and Southeast Asia.

In fact, there are precedents for Japanese to immigrate to Brazil. As early as 200 years ago, Japan immigrated to Brazil on a large scale. The descendants of these people now live in Brazil. Today, the number of Japanese in Brazil has reached about 2 million, and Brazil has already become the country with the largest number of Japanese overseas immigrants.

The geographical environment of Japan

Because it is located in the volcanic belt around the Pacific Ocean, Japan has many volcanic areas from the northernmost to the southernmost-it is generally believed that there are seven. Among all volcanoes, about 1 10 is an active volcano, including Sanyuan Mountain on Izu Island, Asayama Mountain at the junction of Nagano Prefecture and Gunma Prefecture, and Asu Mountain in Kumamoto Prefecture. Although Japan only accounts for 1/400 of the world's land area, it accounts for almost110 of the world's 1500 active volcanoes.

Many rivers have played a great role in shaping Japan's topography, creating large and small valleys and basins, and forming a fan delta near the river estuary. Most of the plains in Japan are very small. The largest is the Kanto Plain, including Tochigi, Ibaraki, Gunma, Saitama, Chiba, Tokyo, Kanagawa and other counties and cities.

Other relatively large plain areas include Houyue Plain (in Niigata Prefecture), Ishikawa Plain (in Hokkaido) and Shenfu Plain (in Aichi Prefecture and Gifu Prefecture).
