Access to the seas allowed for the development of a thriving fishing industry in Japan.
Reason: Japan is an island nation with a long coastline, so maritime resources and trade have been central to its economy. The country is largely mountainous (so large flat plains are limited); although terraced farming developed in the mountains, the seas and fishing had a broader economic impact.
