Japanese Diaspora
The Japanese Diaspora refers to the movement and settlement of Japanese people outside of Japan. This phenomenon began in the late 19th century, with many emigrating to countries like the United States, Brazil, and Peru in search of better economic opportunities. Over time, these communities have grown and developed their own cultural identities while maintaining connections to their Japanese heritage.
Today, the Japanese Diaspora includes millions of people of Japanese descent living around the world. They contribute to the cultural diversity of their host countries while also preserving traditions such as Obon festivals and Ikebana. The diaspora has played a significant role in promoting Japanese culture globally.
