Japan

         Off the coast of China, the small island country of Japan resides. Japan, the country with one of the largest, most developed economies in the world, has a population of 1.265 million people. Despite the advancements Japan has made in its economy as well as its society and education, Japan has many geographical disadvantages they've had to overcome. For Japan to be where it is now, it has had to surpass hindrances like its terrain and area.

         Japan is a mountainous country, because volcanoes form its islands; its mountains inhibit most agriculture. Japan's rocky soil is infertile, so to counteract that, Japan mainly grows rice in its valleys. Japan's mountainous terrain creates difficulty regarding housing developments, as well; therefore, most of Japan's homes contain multiple stories to fit more people.

         Due to Japan's placement, it rests on the worlds most active fault lines called The Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire creates volcanoes and mountains, and causes earthquakes to occur. In Japan, earthquakes commonly occur, causing cities to rebuild. When an earthquake occurs in the ocean, a tsunami can form; tsunamis kill people, create refugees, and result in food, water, shelter shortages. When this happens, Japan seeks help from its allies for food and shelter.

         In conclusion, Japan faces multiple adversities due to its geography. Although Japan's mountains cause many issues to arise, they are still finding ways to overcome that issue. And despite dealing with earthquakes, tsunamis, and floods as a result of resting on a fault line, Japan has found ways to manage its situation.

Why are the world population concentrated on the continental margins
mrs_skeptik [129]

Most of the population of the world is concentrated on the continental margins, or more specifically, along the coastlines. This is due to multiple factors, some of which are:

- Climate;

The climate in the coastal regions is usually much more pleasant that the climate deeper into the mainland, so naturally the people preferred to live where it is more pleasant.

- Arable land;

In close proximity to the coastline there's usually nice fertile soil, so it is very suitable for production of food, thus managing to sustain yourself.

- Economy;

The coastal regions, in lots of cases, are well suited for building ports, and that makes them excellent places from where trade can take place, so it strengthens the economy of these places.
