===Geographical arguments=== Japan argues that, the name Sea of Japan has been and should be used because the [[marginal sea]] is separated from the Pacific Ocean by the [[Japanese Archipelago]].<ref name="mofapamph0208">{{cite web|title=Sea of Japan|url=http://www.mofa.go.jp/policy/maritime/japan/pamph0208.pdf|publisher=[[Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Japan)|Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan]]|date=August 2002|access-date=21 November 2010}}</ref> Korea argues that the adjective "East" describes its geographical position east of the Asian continent, although it is west of Japan and south of Russia. It states that this is analogous to the [[North Sea]], which lies north of the European continent, but west of Scandinavian countries and east of Great Britain.<ref name = "WorkingPaper48"/>
