History

Patrick Lafcadio Hearn (小泉八雲) is a well-known Irishman in modern Japanese history. In addition, many foreigners of Irish descent were hired, led by Irish-born Thomas Waltles, and they have a history of contributing to the modernization of Japan. The Japan-Ireland Society is established. In recent years, Irish people from all over the country have paraded on St. Patrick's Day.^{[citation needed]}
