Japan (日本 Nippon or Nihon; formally 日本国 Nippon-koku or Nihon-koku, literally "[the] State of Japan") is a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy in East Asia, east of China, North Korea and South Korea.

In Wargame: Red Dragon,[1] Japan and South Korea form the Blue Dragons coalition. The United States and Japan are allies aiding South Korea, due to fact that historically both countries signed the United States-Japan Security Treaty.

Background[]

The Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) is a self-defense force which is demonstrated by its philosophy, which favors limited and clinical counter-offensives over deep penetration. Comprised largely of Japanese hardware, the focus is more on equipping vehicles with extremely high-precision optics rather than heavy armor. In the ‘90s however, Japan brought itself up to date with MBTs (main battle tanks) and IFVs (infantry fighting vehicles) from its Western allies.
