Content: Tokyō is Japan's capital and largest  city. The national flag of Japan is a crimson disc, symbolizing the rising  sun, in the center of a white field. HISTORY
The oldest identified human remains found in Japan date from upper  Paleolithic times of the last glacial period, about 30,000 B.C. While there is some dispute, most historians believe that political unity  in Japan occurred at the end of the third century or the beginning of the  fourth century A.D. The Yamato chiefs who unified the country developed an  imperial line, which is the oldest in the world. However, early in  Japanese history, emperors lost political authority. Compared to China,  ancient and medieval Japan was undeveloped culturally. From early in  Japanese history many Chinese imports, including architecture,  agricultural methods, Confucianism, and Buddhism, profoundly influenced  the Japanese. The Japanese established a pattern that still exists of  selectively importing foreign customs and adapting them to the  archipelago. Medieval and early modern Japan was marked by long periods of  incessant warfare as rival families struggled for power. While power  struggles were still occurring, the Japanese had their first contact with  Europe when Portuguese traders landed off southern Kyūshū in  1543. In 1603, through military conquest, Tokugawa Ieyasu established  himself as ruler of the entire country.
