I'll talk about Japan. Japan is a country located in Asia. About their culture, Japan was heavily influenced by China but long after, gets great influence with the foreign. In Japan people are not as sociable as in Mexico, citizens are more inclined to obligations, honor and duty. They are very formal with older people. The Japanese have a sense of complicated mood. I think Japan has a difficult writing because this has 4 alphabets are Kanji, Katakana, Hiragana and one known to us as Romaji. The Japanese learn this writing in only 10 years. Its cuisine is based mainly on rice, wheat, oats, and beans. Udon is a dish thick flour noodles served in a fish broth, to which are added other ingredients like green onions and tofu. It is simply a ball of rice stuffed with different ingredients such as eel, salmon or vegetables. Generally it have a triangle. It is a very simple and inexpensive food. In Japan, sticks out much the genre of terror, not only movies, but also in comics or books. The traditional costume is the kimono, is a long striking garment worn by women, men and children on special occasions. The modern costume in Japan, is varied. There are many types of clothing and styles, for example Ganguro is used designer clothes, tanning and excessive use of accesorios. Other very popular, is the Lolita fashion style based more on the use of Victorian clothing. Actually, Japan is the country that catches my attention, not only for its culture, but also for their education. However, I think it's very robotic. For example, in schools, students are called by their surnames not by their names. I think what has made Japan to be the great country that is now, it is because of the sense of duty and responsability.
