How come Japan is the only non-white country to be equal to the West...

How come Japan is the only non-white country to be equal to the West? The other most successful non-white countries are still clearly inferior in some way, but Japan is on par with the West in virtually every aspect. Why is that?

Its called industry dumb-fuck. Same reason why South Korea's economy grew so quickly during the 70s after they started manufacturing cars and India as well as China in recent years. Try doing research next time, faggot!! lol

Because
The Jew fears the Samurai!

This.

Japan westernized and industrialized during the late 1800's

China started industrialization in 1980

>How come Japan is the only non-white country to be equal to the West?

Because they didn't get mixed as heavily with other races, and have largely had a continued and uninterrupted culture, even after the two nukes. Didn't get """de-nazified""" like goymoney

Because the Americans rebuilt and heavily invested in Japan after the second world war. They did not become technologically advanced overnight, they relied on western investment. Same shit with Hong Kong.

Singapore? Homogeneous society coupled with the fact that Asians can actually build civilizations

It's not equal, Japanese living standards are inferior to those of most Western Europeans yes even with all the diversity bullshit.

It's a lot better than about 90% of the world and a lot better than flag related but still.

>mfw white cucks wanna suck Asian cock because they feel the need to prove they like some nonwhites

Just fuckin stop it.

They evolved like pokemon.

Japan accepted western civilization, aka white culture. They had the genetic capacity to do so.

It's because we nuked them, took away their military, then made them a puppet state of the good ol' U S of A. Their obsessive work ethic, being on an island, and Daddy Warbucks having their backs led to them reaping prosperity.

>How come Japan is the only non-white country to be equal to the West?
Because Douglas MacArthur shoved their current Constitution down their throats and they made damn sure to follow it.

This

They are about as northernly in climate as europeans which by nessecity breeds high intelligence.

>Singapore? Homogeneous society...
Singapore is one of the most multicultural cities on Earth.

I agree. It's like the t_d faggots that constantly signal for Sikhs so they can shit on Muslims. I believe SK's and Jap's are our equal in value, ie should be distinct and protected, but shouting that from the balcony every time I shit on niggers is weak.

Probably in part because Japs have a culture of borrowing from other cultures, and then making it their own uniquely. They take the best, take what works, and discard what doesn't.

So when they saw the positives of Western culture forced upon them and how it could be superior in some ways, they quickly acted to do waht they always do, and incorporate Western culture into their own, and then make it uniquely theirs. Compare with other Asian countries who resisted, or were slow to adapt, or to this day reject it.

>tl;dr Japan became Westaboos, like they'd historically been other-cutlreboos, and it served them well

They're not allowed to have a military after WW2, only a self defence force.

That's a lot of money they can now devote entirely to propping up their economy.

Japan closed off it's borders to outsiders for a long time. When admiral Perry forced Japan to open their ports to trade, the rest of Asia was under European control. They saw this threat and sent students to Western schools, who would return and modernize Japan in less than a dozen years.

This culminated in the Japanese victory against the Russians in 1905, establishing them as a world power not to be fucked with.

In imperial Japan, the aspects of bushido were indoctrinated into the minds of every citizen. So even now, they have a sense of duty and loyalty to their nation not typically seen in the west.

They spend 1% of their GDP on defense. This is the norm outside of Russia and the USA.

Family.
Honor.
Patriotism.

That, my friend, is why Japan has kept up.

isnt it obvious?

...

Top fucking kek m8, Singapore is run by and for the Han chinese

Japs are fucking animals
kill yourself

Weaboo detected.

After the seppos decimated their country they realised the never wanted that to happen again so they sucked up to the west

Doesn't change the fact that it's multicultural

They are the asian equivalent of britain.

Whittu piggu go hOOOM

High average IQ.

Japan is certainly prosperous but people who have lived there say it's much different from the West.

Because Judo.

>Japanese living standards are inferior to those of most Western Europeans
stop spreading your half-plastic, narcisitic dog-eater lies

Because they got an emperor.
Russia 2 was a superpower under the Czar until Bolsheviks .

It's because Japan literally tried their best to emulate American industry and culture. There was a government program and everything that started in the 19th century.

dope, we're not comparing the culture but rather the standard of living and general infrastructure

its not the only one. you have a distorted view of the quality of the west. even small towns in america are dens of drug dealers and hookers. europe is no better and has some odd shit where lots of women get aids then spread it and then try to get every one with aids to move to russia to spread aids. not even tin foil its some really fucked up shit

the west is kinda going down hill. its not the 50s anymore OP

>How come Japan is the only non-white country to be equal to the West?
>equal

fuck off

kys

discipline. something most people lack. take for instance Spain.

Nothing got nuked.

yeah. people here are fucking idiots.

Nippon is so west it's eastern.
Or backwards ways I guess?

Japan is just an oriental Burgerland.

>Le catalan living in the Netherlands.

Read:

The Japanese by their own accord embraced Westernization and Western values in the 1800s by buying and teaching THEMSELVES Western literature and science.

Other countries got Westernized nearly half a century later by being forced to Westernize by Westerners, and thus never embraced Westernization like the Japanese did.

>1800s by buying and teaching THEMSELVES Western literature and science.

They did all that way earlier though. Way before the 1800 they were already interested in Western literature and science.

Thank us for teaching them all they needed to know because the Portuguese were too busy spreading Christianity. I am seriously not even joking.

Nowadays it's all for naught though

the nips don't take shit from noone
especially not from the jews

This is what happened:
>Japan was never #1 in asia, but never China's slave either, it had to be highly observant and was able to learn from greater powers and think quick on its feet to make sure it wouldn't get fucked
>China was always #1 in asia, everyone else was inferior. China has never had any reason to fear (and therefore adapt to anything)
>Korea was a doormat to china forever
When westerners arrived, China basically said "Fuck you, you're doing this our way lol," and then proceeded to get BTFO. Japan observed and studied what the westerners were doing, even while it was closed off from the rest of the world (Rangaku), and quickly noticed they were BTFOing China hard. Japan did what it always did, except this time it learned from westerners instead of China. Japan immediately updated the political system, education, and imported scientists, engineers, military strategists, etc... from the west and also sent students abroad to bring even more knowledge back. Contrary to what a bunch of ignorant westerners think, Japan was already quite westernized before WWI even started.

tl;dr - Sometimes being cautious #2 is better than #1 and arrogant. (Japan soon got raped as soon as it became #1 and arrogant, we all know)

Actually this. After WWII, Japan exploded economically thanks to new changes in government introduced by America.

Yes, we basically traded with you because you were the least pushy christfags and Japan needed somebody to bring news about the western world.

you're welcome for rangaku, by the way

literally imposed western values and government

*bang bang* nip do as we do, you're welcome

We took over Japan after WW2 and told them how to do it. THey were a feudal country, and we taught them to be a Western country. They also practice economic nationalism, and do not have to worry about funding a military because they have us to do it for them.

We learned from the Dutch way before you came into the picture, burger-san.

>the standard of living and general infrastructure

work culture still counts for a lot and it's still inferior and in some places even object to feudal circumstances compared to the west.

>not allowed to leave office building before your boss does

this is the sort of autism I'm talking about.

remember yanks think world history started in 1776 they do not have a concept of 'the past'

Because they have high speed rail.

An honest answer finally.

Japan is superior to the West in every aspect except in race, it is the closet thing we have on Earth to a perfect human utopia. I hope Japan never opens the floodgates to non-White immigration.

Because they had their culture shattered utterly by the west twice in 100 years.
Once more or less by themselves when they realized just how inferior they had become, and the second time deliberately after 1945.
No, no one forbade them to wear Kimonos of practice shintoism, but the whole law system, government and school system was set on a western basis, even if that was later used to teach eastern knowledge and ideals (pre-WW2).

With other savages the western powers at least pretended to be nice and have respect for their culture, or simply did not give a damn as long as the taxes and products were delivered regularly.

Had they ruled with an iron hand in Africa or India for example, those continents would be superpowers today.

>non-Japanese immigration*
FTFY

japan is the germany of the east

High IQ + industrialization

Low IQ can never achieve west

Nips are the most perverted freaks this planet has ever faced, what the fuck are you talking about?

Hitler-kun

Of value that is.

IQ and homogeneity.

...

Because the Japanese people are honorary Aryans.

I completely agree with you.

Wrong:

They're all intertwined.

>India as well
Wrong.

If you build city water lines, sewer systems, and toilets but people still shit in the streets, there's only so much you can do.

Lack of niggers.

Just admit it you liked Kill Me Heal Me you K-Drama fag.

japanese were already advanced enough to kick the russian empire's ass in a war by 1905, bruh
