About This Novel

Japan is located to the east of mainland China and is an island country surrounded by sea. Most of Japan has a temperate monsoon climate with four distinct seasons. Japan is mainly composed of four large islands: Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu, as well as the Ryukyu Islands and surrounding small islands. Before the Meiji Restoration (1868), the main people living in Hokkaido were the indigenous ethnic group-the Ainu people. It is the only ethnic minority in Japan. Therefore, if the Ainu nation needs to be mentioned in the narrative, it will be explained. The Ryukyu Islands at the southwest end of the Japanese archipelago is Okinawa Prefecture. When Japan was locked down in the Edo period, this area had trade relations with foreign countries. Therefore, it was greatly influenced by the culture of mainland China and Southeast Asia, and then formed its own unique culture.

It's not very detailed, but it's pretty good.

After all, there aren't too many books on Japanese literature.
