I have to write a report, and give a six minute presentation in a class of mine in my university. The professor decided to be old-fashioned and "assign" us a country to give a speech "about." Didn't give us a topic, or anything to talk about. Just a country. So, I was given Japan. I know very little about Japan, so I figured I'd do my report/speech on something I've always been interested in- the Samurai. Philosophy/Tradition/General culture.

Is there anyone here who knows anything about this that could help me out? Or even if anyone knows anything interesting about Japan that would be enough material to give a six minute speech on, that would be great. Have to have it done by Tuesday morning!
