Dont forget the social higheracrchy. Where as here all you have to do is be born on American soil to be American, in Japan, your father has to be Japanese for you to be Japanese. Your the nationality of your father, and Japanese "Citizens" recieve the perks as such. Tho as a historian I can tell you that the Japanese history is rather interesting in many ways, aswell as their cultural backgrounds etc. Anyone who says there has never been a war in the name of Budhissm has never looked at Japanese history.

Also a fun fact about Japan is that, until rather recently, tattoo's were illegal because tattoos were only worn by Yakuza.

Also, The Great State of Mississippi.
