Explanation

Japan is famously known as the 'Land of the Rising Sun' - a name derived from its location east of the Asian mainland, making it one of the first places to see sunrise. This epithet has been associated with Japan for centuries and appears in its name (Nihon/Nippon meaning 'sun-origin'). The other options do not have this traditional association.
