Who colonized Japan? When was Japan unified?
It is believed that Japan was colonized and occupied by human groups about 10,000 to 28,000 years ago during a pre-ceramic period. The country was unified for the first time in the 4th century by the Yamato clan. Throughout Japan's history, thousands of events have occurred. They even conquered Korea and received various influences from India, China, and Portugal.
Japan experienced constant wars between clans and had to be unified again by the influence of Oda Nobunaga, who died trying to unify it, and was finally successfully completed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1591. Still, only in 1868 did Emperor Meiji unify Japan, ending the numerous fiefs into which the country was divided.
