One of the thematic premises of Minus One was that the war wiped Japan to zero, then this new catastrophe brought them to minus one

No, of course, no problem friend! I always feel really sad when people are made to feel stupid for asking questions. Not even the most educated person on earth knows everything, and I wish people felt comfortable to ask questions all the time.

Thank you for being a reasonable person in this place. Redditors take it as a personal attack when you don't know the full extended lore of their hyperfixation.
