A platform asked: Why didn't any country invade Japan, or why didn't they come to conquer Tokyo?
My answer is as follows:
During World War II, there was a Tokyo barbecue, and this time the barbecue killed many Japanese. But this matter, I believe the subject should know.
Therefore, I assume that the subject should be asking why there was no imperial conquest of Japan before the modern era. If you understand this problem in this way, then this question is very valuable.
In ancient times, Japan's geographical location was actually good, which was reflected in the fact that Japan was truly isolated overseas, but it also had certain exchanges and needs with the mainland.
Japan is 2,184 kilometers away from the Shandong Peninsula in a straight line, which was actually a terrifying distance in ancient times.
The Japanese envoys to the Tang Dynasty did not dare to intersperse directly at all, because in the face of the waves of the Yellow Sea and the winds and waves of the western Pacific, the small boat board in ancient times could be overturned without a trace of ripples.
In ancient times, the route of sending Tang envoys was generally to take the northern route, first interspersed with the Korean Peninsula, and then along the coastline of the Korean Peninsula to the coastline of the Liaodong Peninsula, and then to the Shandong Peninsula, and then to Chang'an.
Although he later learned to cross the East China Sea directly from the south line and log in from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the wind and waves were so strong that it was basically easy for the ship to capsize and die.
Such sea storms and waves have not only caused difficulties for Japan to communicate with the outside world, but on the contrary, it has provided Japan with a relatively good security environment.
Moreover, it was still easy for the ancient Japanese to go to the mainland to learn culture, which gave the already closed island of Japan an opportunity to learn calmly.
What kind of situation does this environment give Japan?
That is, when he is backward, he sends a bunch of people to the mainland to study, anyway, he learns from the dead, absorbs as much as he can, and after a wild breath, he takes it back to transform the island culture.
After digesting the daddy culture, I will find a way to go out and find my daddy PK.
Because the islands were so small, it was easy for the ancient Japanese to develop unnecessary emotions, and it was these unnecessary emotions that caused the Japanese to repeat the path of foreign expansion.
Anyway, it is in this state of twisting that the Japanese islands have been repeatedly swaying under the two psychology of reluctance and expansion.
The wide ocean really protected Japan in ancient times, and made it a good capital. People like those on the Korean Peninsula can't learn because they don't have this geographical condition.
