In the 12th century BC, what is now Tokyo was a small area inhabited by the Edo family.　The city started to move forward with establishment of postal system in 1871, but an earthquake in 1923 slowed down its progress. Another event – American bombing in 1945 during World War II, levelled the city in a firestorm, and this burning is stamped in the memory of locals.
