Overall: Thank you for a fascinating article. I really enjoyed reading that. Just one thing: From the language of the title, I guessed it might be about Japan, but as soon as I began reading the header, which starts with the words "Ryukyuan history", I became very puzzled - it wasn't Japanese history, so where was it? I had to follow links to work out where it was. So please could you write something in the header to the effect that it is islands near Japan, and give us the name of the islands?

When the above small issue is resolved, this excellent article will be good to go. Storye book ( talk) 09:20, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
