How old are the Japanese people?

Archaeological research has found that primitive humans from Northeast China entered the Korean Peninsula hundreds of thousands of years ago, and some migrated to Japan. Archaeological and anthropological perspectives believe that the Japanese nation is mainly composed of the ancient Chinese Han[2], the Wuyue people of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the southern coast of China and a small amount of Siberian Tungus people, a small amount of Malays from the Nanyang Islands, and the Indochinese people of the Indochina Peninsula. It came from fusion and gradually migrated to Japan and evolved from fusion. Since 1996, the Sino-Japanese Human Bone Syndrome Investigation Team jointly formed by archaeological, anthropological and medical experts from China and Japan has repeatedly confirmed the above conclusion. During the Warring States Period, when the Qin State destroyed Yan, Qi and Yue, a large number of Yan, Qi and Yue people fled to the Korean Peninsula and Japan. After the Western Zhou Dynasty in China destroyed the Shang Dynasty, Jizi, a surviving official of the Shang Dynasty, went to the Korean Peninsula and established the "Ji clan princedom" with the local indigenous people. From the 3rd century BC to the 15th century AD, the northern part of the Korean Peninsula belonged to China. During this period and later until the Qing Dynasty, when wars and disasters occurred in northern China, a large number of Chinese immigrated to the Korean Peninsula. Later, they moved eastward and southward from here. Arrived in Japan. Another immigration route is from eastern China directly across the sea to Japan. Japan originally had no written language, so it has always used Chinese characters. Now about 80% of Japanese language accents are Chinese accents. Japanese language pronunciation mainly comes from the multi-layered Chinese dialects from the Shang and Zhou dynasties to the Qing Dynasty. The accent is a fusion of the Tungusic accent, the Wuyue accent, a small amount of Malay accent from the Nanyang Islands, and the Indochina accent from the Indochina Peninsula. Therefore, Japanese culture has been deeply influenced by China. Yamato Ethnic Group in Japan The main ethnic group in Japan is the Yamato ethnic group. There are about 24,000 Ainu people in Hokkaido and about 1.2 million Ryukyu people in the Okinawa Islands. Japanese is commonly spoken, a small number of people in Hokkaido speak Ainu, and a small number of Ryukyuan people in the Okinawa Islands speak Ryukyuan. The main religions are Shintoism and Buddhism, with the religious population accounting for 49.6% and 44.8% of the religious population respectively. The capital, Tokyo, is a modern metropolis with a population of 12.9 million people. Japan's animation industry is extremely developed.
