The reason why i like Japan is that they keep hold of their culture during industry evolution after the trauma they suffer after the second world war,they don't suffer inferiority complex during industry evolution.

The reason why African countries wil never develop is because they like coping western culture

It has always been so. Requirements for Japanese citizenship are rigorous and involve renouncing any previously held citizenship, which is really crude if you ask me. Marriage to a Japanese woman sef doesn't guarantee you automatic citizenship. I'd rather buy a Swiss citizenship (yes, you can buy it if you can afford it)
