History revisionism
steps to supplant their distinct cultural and spiritual beliefs
share with other Japanese the same language, religion, customs and physical appearances
Okinawans "Ryukyuans"
forced assimilation
a little different because of the US occupation that still occupies as military bases
The discriminatory policies of the central government pushed without the consent of the governor
Included loss of use and enjoyment of own land
Ainu in Hokkaido
Taboo to state Ainu identity; in fear of discrimination
UNESCO recognised as "critically endangered"
