About Okinawa

Okinawa Prefecture (Japanese: 沖縄県, Hepburn: Okinawa-ken; pronounced [ò̞.k̟ʲí.nä́.β̞ä́(.kè̞ɴ̀)]; Okinawan: ウチナーチン, romanized: Uchinaachin) is the southernmost and westernmost prefecture of Japan. It consists of three main island groups—the Okinawa Islands, the Sakishima Islands, and the Daitō Islands—spread across a maritime zone approximately 1,000 kilometers east to west and 400 kilometers north to south. Despite a modest land area of 2,281 km2 (880 sq mi), Okinawa's territorial extent over surrounding seas makes its total area nearly half the combined size of Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu.
