The sun rises. In the east... And .. Japan is the most easterly land mass... From... CHINA..
Or so it was believed...
As you may know... China thought it was the centre of the world at one time...
That is why the chinese character for CHINA is quite literally.... CENTRE COUNTRY
so.. The country to the east (where the sun rises.. ) was japan... And therefore.. It was given this name..
For the chinese... The sun rose over japan... And it was the land of the rising sun..
I wonder if there is a land of the setting sun? Would that be..... Tibet?
