Japan is a hugely diverse country, especially when it comes to its thousands of islands. There are approximately 6800 to choose from, so you don't have to go far to find mountains, beaches, coral reefs and quaint little villages. Many of the islands are almost untouched by tourism so make for an exceptionally traditional experience.
The International Space Station was built, not created, and the process has taken several years. To be honest, the ISS is a work in progress, and is not yet complete. The â¦first components were launched in 1998, and the most recent major assembly was added just last year, in 2011.
The primary layer establishing obligations and rights between the ISS partners is the Space Station Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA), an international treaty signed on January 28, 1998 by fifteen governments involved in the Space Station project.
