Why Japan Spent $5 Billion on a Tiny Rock! #shorts

Can you believe Japan spent nearly $5 Billion (₹40,000 Crore) on a rock smaller than your bedroom? 😱
​Meet Okinotorishima. This tiny 16sqm rock in the Pacific Ocean is Japan’s most guarded secret. Under international maritime law, this microscopic “island” gives Japan control over 432,000 sq km of ocean—an area bigger than Japan itself!
​Inside this territory lies:
✅ Trillions in Oil & Natural Gas
✅ Rare Earth Minerals
✅ Exclusive Fishing Rights
​Japan is literally fighting Mother Nature with concrete barriers and high-tech engineering to keep this rock from sinking. Because if the rock goes under, Japan loses its “Maritime Empire” forever.
