What is the reason why Japanese industry is concentrated in the south and east?

Japan is a big country in economy and a small country in resources, which determines that the raw materials and fuels needed by Japanese industry mainly come from China.

Outside, the coastline of the Sea of Japan is straight, there are few excellent harbors, the coastline of the Pacific Ocean is tortuous, and there are many excellent harbors.

Advanced science and technology and developed shipbuilding industry provide favorable conditions for the industrial layout in coastal areas.

Judging from the factors that affect the industrial layout, Japan's coastal layout mode is to use its superior ocean.

Transportation conditions: Imported high-grade iron ore (mainly from Australia, Brazil and India) and overseas oil.

(mainly from the Middle East) and other industrial raw materials, industrial products are mainly sold to the international market, and Japan can save transportation costs.

Use, reduce production costs and improve economic benefits.

The layout of emerging industries mainly depends on talent, transportation and environmental factors, while the traditional industrial areas are land prices on the one hand.

On the other hand, the pollution is more serious, so the emerging industries in Japan are mainly distributed in the south of Kyushu and the northeast of Honshu Island.

Department, relying on modern airport and expressway network extending in all directions.

Direction of industrial diffusion: to the north and south ends of the country.

Main industrial zones: traditional industrial zones-Keihin, Nagoya, Hanshin, Kitakyushu and Setouchi.
