Mountains, cities and people
Japan is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, a region where earthquakes and volcanic activity are common. Much of Japan is mountainous, so many people live in coastal plains and large cities. Mount Fuji, a volcanic mountain on Honshu, is Japan’s highest peak at 3,776 metres. Tokyo is a very large city and Japan’s capital. Japan’s location beside the Pacific Ocean has also helped shape travel, fishing and trade.
Japan and Australia: connected places
Australia and Japan are linked by travel, education and trade. Australia sells resources and food products to Japan, including coal and beef. Japan sells manufactured goods to Australia, including cars and electronics. Trade patterns can change over time, but these examples show how countries exchange goods they produce with goods they need.
