Osaka, originally known as Naniwa, was founded in the 5th century as a port city and served as an important center for trade and commerce. It became the first capital of Japan during the reign of Empress Suiko in the 7th century. The city's name changed to Osaka in the 16th century. Over time, it grew into one of Japan's largest and most significant cities.
