Japan Plans for a Backup Capital in Emergencies
The Japanese government has announced plans for a backup capital city that can take over if a major disaster occurs in the main capital. This is important for ensuring that the country can continue to function during emergencies. The criteria for this backup city include having a population of at least 1.2% of Japan's total population. This initiative shows how governments prepare for unexpected events.
