Tokyo, (literally ”Eastern capital”) is the seat of the Japanese government and the Imperial Palace, the home of the Japanese Imperial Family, and is the capital of Japan.
Prior to 1943, Tokyo was the name of both one of the 47 prefectures of Japan, Tokyo-fu, and the populous city of Tokyo in the eastern half of the prefecture. In 1943 the city and prefecture were merged into a unique prefectural level government entity, known as T?ky?-to “Tokyo Metropolis“. This administrative region includes the twenty-three ‘’special wards” of the former city, many suburban cities in the western half of the prefecture, and two chains of islands extending south into the Pacific Ocean.
About 12 million people, 10 percent of Japan’s population, live within Tokyo Metropolis’s prefectural boundaries. Tokyo is also home to many of the tallest buildings on Earth.
