Geographic isolation limited access to stories told in oral tradition due to language differences between regions.
<h3>What is oral tradition?</h3>
- It is the custom of telling stories that were not written.
- It is the tradition of passing these stories from generation to generation, without the use of writing.
Language is very important in the oral tradition because the people who tell and listen to the story must understand the words used so that the tradition remains alive.
This issue was hampered by geographical isolation. This is because this isolation provoked the creation of new languages and customs, which did not allow the stories to cross the borders between the regions.

According to Sei Shonagon -a Japanese author in ancient Japan- Chinese influence was reflected in the life of the Court.
Aproximatelly in the eighth century, Japan built a city in the central part of the territory called Heian-kyo, which means "peacefulness.", what today is known by Kyoto.
During the period of Heian(794-1185), Japan lived periods of stability and the aristocracy of the Imperial Court dedicated part of their lives to spread culture, art, poetry, and social organization that somewhat was influenced by China Buddhism, and Confucianism.
And as times went by, this segment started to move away from those influences to develop their own poetry and arts, as Japanese aristocracy considered that art was one of the most important human accomplishments.
