Dragon Ball? You realise the actual world map of Dragon Ball is essentially just China, floating on its own, right? It's based on Journey to the West.

And why would an American be ashamed of not being an expert in samurais? Oh no I don't know jack shit about a warrior group that''s been gone for over a 100 years. Here's what I do know. The Samurai are retarded. They banned guns in Japan to preserve the power of the samurai, even though the Japanese firearms were far more advanced than the Europeans were at that time, which lead to the total backwards thinking of the Japanese ruling class, which made them think they could beat a country with twice the population, ten times the industrial output and far more advanced technology in a long drawn out rapid fatigue war of attrition. Guess how that turned out. Oh yeah. They got royally double teamed by Fat Man and Little Boy.

Japan doesn't have any probelms with race, they just aren't as multiracial as the US, so they lack the context to draw black people non stereotypically.

Yeah anime does have different ethnicities of people

Actually Japan is very, very racist, if you know much about it. The whole racial purity thing is still really big there.
