an artificial island in the bay of Nagasaki.
Fittingly, the Decima island (also called Dejima) was built in 1634 as a home for Portuguese traders; Japan's way of limiting their influence on the country. The Dutch later moved to the island in 1641, making it Japan's only trade port with the rest of the world."
