The caste system in India divides its people in 4 main groups: Brahmins, priests and teachers; Kshatriyas, warriors and rulers; Vaishyas, farmers, merchants and traders; and the Shudras, labourers. This caste system isn't based on political views, but on the religious belief that each group originated from a different part of Brahma's body, the Hindu God of Creation.

India's caste system is very unfair and problematic. Three ways in which it has created social problems in the country are: 1) it prohibits people to change occupation and advance in life by making something else than what they were "born" to do; 2) it increases prejudism and discrimination towards certain groups as it doesn't let persons from different categories to mix in; and 3) it maintains a big social and economic gap between each group, which leads to violence and poverty.

Shinto and Buddhism are the two most common religions practiced in Japan. Over the years, borrowing has occurred between the two
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Shinto and Buddhism are Japan's two major religions. Shinto is as old as the Japanese culture, while Buddhism was imported from the mainland in the 6th century. Since then, the two religions have been co-existing relatively harmoniously and have even complemented each other to a certain degree. Most Japanese consider themselves Buddhist, Shintoist or both.

Religion does not play a big role in the everyday life of most Japanese people today. The average person typically follows the religious rituals at ceremonies like birth, weddings and funerals, may visit a shrine or temple on New Year and participates at local festivals (matsuri), most of which have a religious background.
