First of all i'd be grateful if someone gives me a cue about the newest Shinto shrine in Japan (i.e. the date of establishment being the most recent) The one i managed to find is Tsubaki Grand Shrine of America (founded 1987) There are probably much more recent shrines out there in Japan.
But my main question is: what's the procedure of establishing a Shinto shrine? Where can i read more about it (preferably in English, since i expect it to be a vast text with lots of uncommon vocab, which would be pain in the *** with my current level)
I'm interested in the subject since i imagined some new territories being settled by Japanese (those new volcanic islands for instance) Although i'm aware that the idea is rather preposterous, with depopulation of 田舎 taken into account.
