Japan. It is considered by most Japanese to be one of the most important annual festivals and has been celebrated for centuries with its own unique customs. Traditional food Japanese people eat a special selection of dishes during the New Year celebration called osechi-ryri ( or ?), typically shortened to osechi. This consists of boiled seaweed (, kombu?), fish cakes (, kamaboko?), mashed sweet potato with chestnut (, kurikinton?), simmered burdock root (, kinpira gobo?), and sweetened black soybeans (, kuromame?). Many of these dishes are sweet, sour, or dried, so they can keep without refrigeration--the culinary traditions date to a time before households had refrigerators, when most stores closed for the holidays.

But this big jolly bachelor, the first to break the Junker barrier in the higher regions of the Kaiser's officialdom, perceived that the repeated sinkings of American vessels would sooner or later torpedo American neutrality, and he bethought himself of a scheme to counter this danger. He proposed a military alliance with Mexico, then particularly hostile to the imperialistic Norte-americanos as a result of Pershing's punitive expedition into Mexican territory. He sweetened the proposition with an offer of money and the possibility of support from Japan, standing at America's back, and with still more anti-Yankee inducements. Unable to deal through the Mexican ambassador, who was in Switzerland, Zimmermann sent his proposal to his minister in Mexico, Heinrich J. F. von Eckardt, by way of Washington.
