   Assuming a country "becomes a country" when it adopts its constitution, it would be May 3, 1947

   Archaeological research indicates that people were living on the islands of Japan as early as the upper paleolithic period. The first written mention of Japan begins with brief appearances in Chinese history texts from the 1st century AD. Japanese history has been marked by alternating periods of long isolation and radical influence from the outside world. Its culture today is a mixture of outside and internal influences.

   Since it adopted its constitution on May 3, 1947, Japan has maintained a unitary constitutional monarchy with an emperor and an elected parliament, the Diet, which is one of the oldest legislative bodies in Asia. Japan is an economic world power with the world’s second largest economy, and is the sixth largest exporter and importer and is a member of the United Nations, G8, G4, and APEC.

   Go to the CIA’s factbook website and check out their country profile on Japan and every other country. It’s the only place with always accurate information. http://www.cia.gov and click on World Factbook.

   First officially settled in about 660 B.C., Japan has been a country for as long as anyone can remember, and named as such since at least 670 A.D.

   When the League of Nations started, Japan was already a member. in 1919(or 1920)
   Maybe this is the first officially appearance in the world record?

   But the world had already knew that a country called "Zipang" or "Cipangu" is in the east of Asia since 15 century.
   Western ppl were saying that it must be a country with plenty of Gold.
   Actually Japan had been exporting tons of Gold in 18 and 19 century.

   The name "Zipang" turned to Japan.

   And domestically, JennyAnn’s answer is almost right. it is 1889 though.

   Japan was a country long before all of the above.

   And it was around 400AD or so.

   While I dont believe it was ever part of china, I wont rule it out…
   But japanese history is as far back as 400AD.
   I wouldnt even doubt BC times for that country.

   Yea, modern japan would be right aftert WWII by virtue of the constitution we forced on them.

   But, with todays Korea problem.. I definately support Japan becoming a true nuclear power.
