How would the map of Japan with its prefectures look if you translated each kanji into English?

As you may already know, one of the things I fell in love with the Japanese language was kanji. When I studied the map of japan for the first time, I always wondered how would it look translated into English. You could guess some of them like Tokyo meaning “East Capital” or Hiroshima meaning “Wide Island”. But what about the other ones?

Well I finally made a map achieving that. My favorite one was “Love Princess”

The polluted brain

Some of the health risks of inhaling fine and ultrafine pollutant particles are well-established, such as asthma, lung cancer, and, most recently, heart disease. But a growing body of evidence suggests that such exposure can also harm the brain, accelerating cognitive aging, and may even increase risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
