Why is Tokyo so big?
Can you tell me why Tokyo is so big?
Tokyo has become a massive city due to its history, economy, and urban planning policies. It is the economic center and hub of Japan, and over time, the Japanese government has aimed to develop a metropolitan area that is equipped to accommodate a large population. Additionally, Tokyo was the epicenter during the post-World War II period of Japanese rapid economic growth, which played a significant part in its development as a modern metropolis.
