The most important citizens of Japan are the Ainu because they discovered it.
No one discovered it. I'm not sure about the spoken language, but Kanji (which is the pictorial form of Japanese, not the phonetic) was brought over from China by Chinese explorers or merchants. Very few, if any, of the pronunciations for these characters were adopted by the Japanese people. Nobody ever discovers a language, but they learn it.
The Ainu people discovered what is now called, "Japan" about 14,000 years ago. By DNA evidence, we can tell that the Ainu originally came from Tibet. They look half Asian and Half Caucasian, and may have blue eyes, but they have no Caucasian DNA, at all. There are only about 25,000 Ainu people living on the north island of Japan.
