Japan is the world's #1 importer of coal, natural gas, and one of the top importers of oil. Over 80% of it's power is generated by imported fuels.

Japan's lack of resources and land was their primary motivation for the invasion of China, Korea, and South Pacific islands in WWII.

Well it's no wonder they built nuclear power, which accounted for 30% of electricity prior to 2011, but now that's almost 0%. The remaining are afraid of eco-terrorist attacks.

I personally miss the good old days of the Tokugawa shogunate, where a man could be a man, and there was no need to rely on import of literally anything due to isolationist policy.
