How is Japanese clothing different from Australian clothing?
Cultural Differences Between Australia and Japanhttp://www.convictcreations.com/culture/japan.htmlThe different histories of Japan and Australia are reflected in their respective cultures today. As Japanese history is considered to be noble (World War II excepted), the Japanese use it as a muse of inspiration for their creativity. On the other hand, because Australian history carries some unsavoury labels, most modern Australians either ignore it, or seek an excuse to degrade it. For example, they might argue that it is not relevant to non-British migrants or Aborigines. Ironically, the desire to disassociate the present from the past is one of the most defining features of modern day Australian culture and one of the most telling example of a Convict legacy.
