Racial and cultural homogeneity which makes an ideal breeding ground for patriotic sentiment which gives people the drive to act in the interests of their nation and people.
But given their falling birthrate and close proximity to two nuclear-armed tankie lunatics, one of which has taken to shooting his toys directly over their island, I wouldn't call it all sunshine and roses. Oh, and having to rely on mutt military might kinda sucks, I have to imagine. And the whole anime thing.
But for a country to have been through worse and come out a few decades later seemingly more successful than their own conquerors gives me hope that brighter days may still be ahead for whitey.
