║ Tokyo, the capital of Japan, has more people than ║
║ any other city in the world except Shanghai. Many ║
║ countries in the world have fewer people. Tokyo ║
║ is Japan's main business center as well as the ║
║ home of the emperor and the headquarters of the ║
║ national government. The city's many banks, com- ║
║ mercial establishments, and industries help make ║
║ Japan one of the richest nations in the world. ║
║ About a twelfth of Japan's people live in Tokyo. ║
║ The city has become so crowded that it has a severe ║
║ housing shortage. Tokyo's rapid growth has also ║
║ created other problems, including some of the worst ║
║ pollution and heaviest traffic in the world. ║
