As of 20 19, 1, the main ethnic group in Japan is the Yamato ethnic group, and the Ainu people in Hokkaido have about16,000 people. Japan's ethnic composition is relatively simple, but it can't be simply called a "single nation state". The reason for this is that in addition to the well-known "Yamato nation", there are Ainu people and Ryukyu people with unique national characteristics on the Japanese archipelago.
