These rates are called the effective tax rates, and represent the actual tax rate a household pays on income earned for the tax year. Filer Status The dollar threshold for each tax rate is dependent upon the status of the filer, whether s/he is single, the head of a household, married filing separately, or married filing jointly.
Japan is considered an archipelago because Japan is made up of numerous islands, with 4 main islands making up the most of its surface area. It is not connected to the contineâ¦nt in any way and is completely surrounded by water. Its neighbor Korea would be a peninsula.
Steeped in centuries of Asian culture and history, Japan, an archipelago of 4 major and over 4,000 smaller islands, is a mostly mountainous country with only 15% of its land cultivable. Japan has a population of 127,368,088. As a result of the shortage of land, its largest cities ring the coastline. The mammoth metropolis of Tokyo, and the other major cities along the Pacific Ocean are home to most of its people. The first ever recorded mention of Japan was made in the first century AD. By 710 AD its first permanent capital was founded.
