Okinawa Prefecture (Japanese: 沖縄県, Hepburn: Okinawa-ken, Okinawan: ウチナーチン Uchinaa-chin) is the southernmost prefecture of Japan. It comprises hundreds of the Ryukyu Islands in a chain over 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) long. The Ryukyus extend southwest from Kyushu (the southwesternmost of Japan's main four islands) to Taiwan. The Okinawa Prefecture encompasses the southern two thirds of that chain. Naha, Okinawa's capital, is located in the southern part of Okinawa Island.
The oldest evidence of human existence on the Ryukyu islands is from the Stone Age and was discovered in Naha and Yaese. Some human bone fragments from the Paleolithic era were unearthed, but there is no clear evidence of Paleolithic remains. Japanese Jōmon influences are dominant on the Okinawa Islands, although clay vessels on the Sakishima Islands have a commonality with those in Taiwan.
The first mention of the word Ryukyu was written in the Book of Sui. Okinawa was the Japanese word identifying the islands, first seen in the biography of Jianzhen, written in 779. Agricultural societies begun in the 8th century slowly developed until the 12th century. Since the islands are located at the eastern perimeter of the East China Sea relatively close to Japan, China and South-East Asia, the Ryukyu Kingdom became a prosperous trading nation. Also during this period, many Gusukus, similar to castles, were constructed. The Ryukyu Kingdom entered into the Imperial Chinese tributary system under the Ming dynasty beginning in the 15th century, which established economic relations between the two nations.

Honestly, I'm not sure why - if I'd known about it sooner, I probably would have gone there every year. Witness Japan's best beaches, snake sake, and the most beautiful waters in the world.
70 years have passed since the last land battle of World War II left 120,000 Okinawan civilians dead, along with a nearly equal number of Japanese and American soldiers. Newly uncovered archives and data on casualties are analyzed to create a vivid timeline and map of the devastating 12-week long battle. Accounts of survivors and battlefield historians depict a battle of attrition that became more indiscriminate as the weeks passed. A beautiful, subtropical island was transformed into burnt wasteland, as the clashing armies fought a ferocious battle that fused warriors and civilians in death.

This full color film from WWII documents the invasion of the Ryukyu Islands including Okinawa. The Battle of Okinawa, codenamed Operation Iceberg, was fought on the Ryukyu Islands of Okinawa and was the largest amphibious assault in the Pacific War of World War II. The 82-day-long battle lasted from early April until mid-June 1945. After a long campaign of island hopping, the Allies were approaching Japan, and planned to use Okinawa, a large island only 340 mi (550 km) away from mainland Japan, as a base for air operations on the planned invasion of Japanese mainland (coded Operation Downfall). Four divisions of the U.S. 10th Army (the 7th, 27th, 77th, and 96th) and two Marine Divisions (the 1st and 6th) fought on the island. Their invasion was supported by naval, amphibious, and tactical ...

Okinawa (沖縄県, Okinawa-ken) is Japan's southernmost prefecture, consisting of a few dozen, small islands in the southern half of the Nansei Shoto, the island chain which stretches over about one thousand kilometers from Kyushu to Taiwan. Okinawa Prefecture can be divided into three major island groups, the Okinawa Islands (Okinawa Shoto) around Okinawa Island (Okinawa Honto), the Miyako Islands (Miyako Retto) around Miyako Island and the Yaeyama Islands (Yaeyama Retto) around Ishigaki Island. Okinawa's climate is subtropical, with temperatures barely falling below 15 degrees in winter.

Transcript: "Heading to Okinawa? These are my Top 5 picks for what to do while you are there. First, head to Shuri Castle. This ancient fortress is fully restored. and - Shuri is located on top of hill, so you get one of the best views in Naha. Second on the list, shop and eat on Kokusai Dori. This is Okinawas most famous street. It is busy, busy, busy and it has tons of restaurants and shops with colorful souveniors and authentic Okinawa crafts as well. Your third stop should be the WW2 Peace Memorial. This is located at the southern end of the island. The memorial has the names of everyone who died in the battle of Okinawa. it is a moving monument that is surrounded by stunning views. I also recommend that you visit Ocean Expo Park and Churaumi Aquarium. There is a village w...

Click here to see if your channel qualifies for RPM Network/Maker Studios: http://awe.sm/s0VmZ Besides maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle, older Okinawans believe that the key to longevity is ikigai, which roughly translates as that which makes one's life worth living. They say that possessing a strong sense of purpose, keeping lifelong friends or a mutual support network provides financial, emotional, and social help that may act as a buffer against stress and diseases...

Un visage de fille tout souriant,eblouissant
Des cheveux tout noirs, une peau doree, des yeux brides
Elle passait ses jours a repasser et a laver
Dans une sagesse infinie
Elle y donnait sa vie
C'etait sans compter sur lui
Car tout lui est permis
O - Okinawa
Les mains dans les draps
O - Okinawa
Comme tu la vois
O - Okinawa oh! oh! oh!
O - Okinawa oh! oh! oh!
Par un soleil rouge la remarqua derriere les draps
Elle dans ses chaussons quitta ses freres mais pas sa mere
Un autre univers qui l'attendait pour l'ima(in)ger
Elle vendit son corps
Par couverture d'or
La gloire pour le jour
La nuit sans amour
O - Okinawa
Les mains dans les draps
O - Okinawa
Comme tu la vois
O - Okinawa oh! oh! oh!
O - Okinawa oh! oh! oh!
Quand les 3 garcons et son idee furent arrives
Par les pleins pouvoirs il les coiffa, les habilla
Une fois reconnus, ils isolerent la terre entiere
Dans une sagesse infinie
Elle y donnait sa vie
La gloire pour le jour
La nuit sans amour
O - Okinawa
Les mains dans les draps
O - Okinawa
Comme tu la vois
O - Okinawa oh! oh! oh!
O - Okinawa oh! oh! oh!
Oh! oh! oh!
