"In part that is because this is still such an extraordinarily homogenous society. Immigrants make up just one per cent of Japan's population" - Compare that to Brazil. So again, I don't think she's saying it in a literal sense.
just off the top of my head, i can name: hawaii, the caribbean, brazil, parts of europe (italy comes to mind), east asia (especially places with large overseas diaspora like china and taiwan) all have identical cultural concepts, especially those with large populations living in america.
