Japan is located on the "ring of fire" which is a ring of volcanoes that fall on the shores around the pacific ocean. Because of all the seismic activity (underground movement) that volcanoes can create, Japan can receive many earthquakes that are started nearby, causing much damage.
Explain in an essay how the geography of japan affected its history and society include the role of the ring of fire?
The mountains made the Japanese move to the coast to make their homes, and as a result, they started to eat a bunch of fish. The Ring of Fire is an area that has many earthquakes and volcanoes.
