The country of Japan is a small island located on the eastern part of Asia. It is in the Atlantic ocean and just off the coast of South Korea and Russia. Between Japan and the mainland is the sea of Japan. On the southern part of the island is the East China Sea. After WWII, Japan lost a lot of land and small islands including Taiwan and Sakhalin. This reduced the size of the Japanese empire a great deal and this is now what we see today in our modern world.
