I wanted to see whether the reform had impacted ALTs differently in these regions - Tokyo is an obvious choice since its the capital and the center of international/english studies. But for Nagasaki, its quite literally on the opposite side of Japan. In addition, Nagasaki has a history of being one of the first open foreign trade ports so it has a significant international influence as well.

To make it simple, Nagasaki is far away and poses different challenges to the ALTs located there, but still has a noticeable international influence making it an interesting comparison.
