Hello there! I'm hoping some one here would be able to answer some of these questions.
What I'm wondering about is general economy of japan. specifically, the economy of each region in japan.
If i can go into depth I would like to explain further about what kind of information I'm looking for.
So currently I'm writing a novel where many of the world's governments have collapsed completely and much of the world is in anarchy. Japan, with the help of the US, has managed to ride out this collapse however with trade being so sparse, the stock market pretty much non-existent, and the rising crime-rate, japan has enacted the walling-off of the major regions of japan. So instead of one massive government needing to support a massive population of the entire country, each walled-off "Region" can setup its own smaller government which will only have to support the population of its own walled-off region.
So my question is:
"If" something like this were to happen which of japan's current regions would be able to support its self the best and which regions would be too poor to sustain itself? if you don't know, then simple speculation is fine but I would also like to know why you think so.
Also, I don't need to hear about how utterly unrealistic this scenario is or how this would never happen in real life.. i already know all this. however, if you have ideas on how this scenario could be more believable then feel free to offer your thoughts. i dont know how government work thus i dont know how they might react to such disasters if they were to occur. any help is appreciated.
