fertile land which enjoy the blessings of the rivers, and other
advantages including good transportation links, its people have
lived affluent lives since early days.
Nagoya has a long history and is the birthplace of three notable
feudal lords, Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Also in Nagoya, traditional industries like ceramics and textiles,
and today's key industries like automobiles, aviation and machine
tools have developed, and Nagoya has an important role in Japan's
industrial society.
