THIS COUNTRY is represented by the exceptional and unique land that consists of more than 5,000 islands. Throughout its history, the capital city of this country has changed more than 2 times, allowing people to see architecture in different timelines.

This nation cherishes its imperfections without fear, knowing that this makes them perfect in a real way. The two main religions in this country coexist together peacefully and complete each other. One of the most well-known elements of their culture, called code of honor, promotes loyalty, self-discipline, and martial prowess.

Despite the enormous amount of natural disasters that occur approximately 500 times per year, this country has an ability to recover fast and maintain 10th position for highest quality of life in the world.
The right answer to the poll is: JAPAN

This country is famous for their conservatism and calm lifestyle. By the order of the Tokugawa shogunate, Japan was secluded from the world for 200 years, which allowed people to develop their own culture and preserve it. Those traditions continue to live in modern Japan as traditional arts: Noh and Kabuki theater and Bunraku puppetry. The main tourist attraction of the country - the cherry tree with a global recognition - Sakura, a pink tree with a lot of very small flowers symbolizes the beauty of life and its brevity. It has its own annual celebration known as Hanami, which brings people together in spring to admire the beautiful scenery of blossoming trees.
World Heritage is one of the branches leading to the tree crown – sustainable development. Our past and history are lessons, and this rubric is dedicated to learning more about UNESCO Masterpieces and their uniqueness.

Bryggen is instantly recognized as a bright symbol of Norway. Established centuries ago by the end of the Viking Age, this place was a vigorous hub for trading between this Scandinavian country and the continent. It seems like standing side by side townhouses became each other’s support, and their small alleys are full of miracles. Now, 61 colorful wooden buildings hide not only a wide history but also the cradle of the arts. On Bryggen’s inner side, artisans create potters, jewelers, and other crafts.

However, there was a time when these brimming with charm houses were abandoned. The fire numerously covered facades until the nation decided to save Bryggen and give it a second life. To promote the safety of the prominent wharf, since 1979, it has also been enlisted in UNESCO heritage.
Bryggen’s history traces its roots back to…

48 years ago, the monetary order called Bretton Woods system was abolished and replaced by the Jamanian system. The previous economic structure made a long-standing contribution to our world, taking a huge part in post-war reconstruction and international trade.

The reason to adopt the new agreement was a devastating economic situation after World War II, as the world was in need of rebuilding. After the conference in Bretton Wood the dollar became the world's main currency and itself was equated to gold, hence widely used for a majority of international transactions. Moreover, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) were established, leading a way to one of the most significant organizations in the modern world.

Over time the ratio of the world economy’s main forces shifted, resulting in the decreasing of the dollar value it was replaced with the Jamanian, which is forming the value of a currency based on the laws of the market.
Longmen Grottoes are a great representation of Buddhist art located in the Chinese province, Henan. Built between the 5th and 8th centuries, thousands and thousands of Buddhist stone statues witnessed the eternal flow of destinies, their enlightenment and decline. The number of statues is unimaginable alone, but caves are also real secret chambers containing about 2,800 inscriptions. Although most of the substance is devoted to Buddhist religion, the Chinese nation imparted their wisdom through such an art. One of the caves is called the Cave of Prescriptions, as in this place people recorded treatments for various diseases and illnesses.

Longmen Grottoes bear the name of the high point in Chinese stone carving. Since 2000, this heritage has been under the protection of UNESCO, following the principle of “retaining the historic condition” in its pristine form.
How many Buddhist statues does this collection of Chinese art contain?

THIS COUNTRY seems like a serene paradise settled in the North. The seas around wash the islands, making it even more peaceful and private place for high quality life. Wherever you are, it will not take a lot of your time to take a bike and admire the unparalleled view of the ocean.
However, back in history, the involvement in numerous events could not give that tranquility. Rich history of this nation is teeming with Vikings, rivalry, and victories. People, in turn, deeply venerate their traditions, even their national flag is considered the oldest one in the world.

The right answer to the poll is DENMARK

The ocean is always close to Denmark’s nation, as the maximum distance from it is just 52 km. Many Danes do not lose the chance to swim in the open waters all year. Winter swimming is a special kind of recreation for them. Plunging into a cold and invigorating sea makes your immunity strengthen and the spirit awake. A short trip to the sea by bike will be brightened up by picturesque landscapes. By the way, cycling does not take a lot of your energy reserves - the relief of the country is one of the flattest in the world.
Probably all these views of the ocean will remind you of some childhood memories – the stories about the dreaming mermaid and the ugly duckling. Danes also revere their prominent writer, Hans Christian Andersen, by proclaiming the mute swan the national symbol of the country.
UN IN THE CULTURE

It is no wonder how the United Nations’s immense recognition among the global community made it an aspiration for many people. The aims and purposes of this organisation are considered to be fundamental, affecting all spheres of life, for example the cultural part. In the media we can find references to the United Nations and make sure that it is indeed around us.

The United Republic of Nations is a main location in the animated series called “Avatar: The Legend of Korra” that is a parallel to the United Nations in the real world. This city was created in order to unify people of all 4 nations and make a first step into peace and harmony after the long-lasting war. The United Republic is known for having a unique and diverse culture that was shaped by immigration and a technological revolution.
