Are the Japanese descended from China?

Nowadays, many people think that the Japanese are descendants of China. Many people support this statement, and many people oppose it, but there is no clear evidence. From the perspective of geography, genes and history, there is a certain basis for saying that the Japanese are descendants of China, but it cannot be completely proved that all Japanese are descendants of China, but some of them have a certain relationship with China.

1, geographically.

Everyone knows that Japan is an island country, and the country's land is made up of islands. Many geologists believe that Japan's islands were connected with the East Asian continent tens of thousands of years ago. The most common view now is that the Japanese archipelago was connected with the Asian continent before the Cretaceous. From this perspective, the aborigines at that time probably lived there. With the change of the earth's crust, the mainland is divided into many blocks, and Japan Island is one of them. However, this does not mean that the Japanese are descendants of China, but it is geographically possible. After all, there are many countries in Asia, not just China.

2. From a genetic point of view.

In fact, there is a survey project in Japan. Some people investigate Japanese genes, and they find that Japanese genes are widely distributed. One of the similarities is that the rope literati can be regarded as the ancestor of Japanese civilization. To some extent, the rope literati may come from Southeast Asia. Many people agree with this view, even Japanese academic circles and people agree with this view. Genetically, some Japanese genes are related to China.

3. From a historical perspective

There are many topics about Japan in history, such as Xu Fu in Qin Shihuang's period and Sino-Japanese friendship in Tang Dynasty. Now there is a saying that the Japanese are a team led by Xu Fu looking for longevity medicine, but this can only be regarded as a guess. But in the Tang Dynasty, some people went to Japan, so there are probably descendants of Huaxia in Japan.
