    http://www.country-studies.com/japan/geography.html
    
    Extractions: Geography The four major islands are separated by narrow straits and form a natural entity. The Ryukyu Islands curve 970 kilometers southward from Kyushu. The distance between Japan and the Korean Peninsula, the nearest point on the Asian continent, is about 200 kilometers at the Korea Strait. Japan has always been linked with the continent through trade routes, stretching in the north toward Siberia, in the west through the Tsushima Islands to the Korean Peninsula, and in the south to the ports on the south China coast. None of the populated plains or mountain basins is extensive in area. The largest, the Kanto Plain, where Tokyo is situated, covers only 13,000 square kilometers. Other important plains are the Nobi Plain surrounding Nagoya, the Kinki Plain in the Osaka-Kyoto area, the Sendai Plain around the city of Sendai in northeastern Honshu, and the Ishikari Plain on Hokkaido. Many of these plains are along the coast, and their areas have been increased by reclamation throughout recorded history. The small amount of habitable land prompted significant human modification of the terrain over many centuries. Land was reclaimed from the sea and from river deltas by building dikes and drainage, and rice paddies were built on terraces carved into mountainsides. The process continued in the modern period with extension of shorelines and building of artificial islands for industrial and port development, such as Port Island in Kobe and the new Kansai International Airport in Osaka Bay. Hills and even mountains have been razed to provide flat areas for housing.

    Extractions: As you can tell from the statistics above, Japan is highly populated and very small; less than 20% of the land in Japan is habitable, so you can get an idea of how space is at a premium. One-story dwellings are practically non-existent. Most of the population is near coastline and mountains. It seems like almost every bit of flat land is taken up by something, and rice paddies seem to fill the countryside. Like most other countries, the price of gasoline is quite high (up to $4 a gallon), and roads are not as wide as in the U.S.; this combined with high population density, prohibitive auto taxes and sparse parking makes car travel very expensive. As a result, most traveling is done by train, and Japan's train system is up to the task. Three main trunk lines carry the very fast "shinkansen" (bullet trains) make up the backbone of the system, but most traveling is done on the countless other train lines which crisscross the countryside and spread like nets across the cities. Japan is divided into 47 prefectures (the largest being the entire island of Hokkaido), and each prefecture is made up of villages, towns, cities and sometimes areas analogous to counties. Larger cities will be divided into boroughs, or "wards." Each village, town, city or ward is divided into "machi," the size of large neighborhoods; each machi is divided into "chome," which usually consist of several dozen blocks. Each "chome" has numbered blocks, and each block has numbered houses. Since only important avenues have names, a house may not be identified by which street it is on, rather by which block, chome, and machi it is in.
