The name for Japan in Japanese is written using the kanji 日本 and is pronounced Nippon or Nihon.
Before 日本 was adopted in the early 8th century, the country was known in China as Wa (倭, changed in Japan around 757 to 和) and in Japan by the endonymYamato.
Nippon, the original Sino-Japanese reading of the characters, is favored for official uses, including on banknotes and postage stamps.
Nihon is typically used in everyday speech and reflects shifts in Japanese phonology during the Edo period. The characters 日本 mean "sun origin", which is the source of the popular Western epithet "Land of the Rising Sun"

You Adulting Yearlings of mine enjoy. I’ll be the one letting my eggs expire towards Menopause. Perhaps in another lifetime, we’ll all get to make choices for ourselves, no one ever dies in agony, and the world will be made out of marshmallows.

Had to share this video to show you how beautiful and culturally rich Palestine is. These are the cities of Palestine and their names. Despite the destruction and death, we still have hope. And we will survive this 🙏🇵🇸
It's a beautiful country full of beautiful people, and we deserve to live, frankly.

i am now 90 episodes into critical role campaign two and i do not think a single thing has shook me to my core as much as the fact that exandria’s summer solstice is the hottest day of the year. there is no seasonal lag in matt mercer’s world. how the fuck do thermodynamics work in his universe

I grew up with the animated Mulan movie. The first thing that came to my late teenaged mind was that Tengu Shredder had concubines in his palace during the Yamato era.
