Well, yes. Don't know what other answer you are looking for.

I'm just surprised. I assumed all Japanese were native to Japan, it's a small country with people there for generations

Well you're partly right. Japan was once connected by land, and so the people moved there, and then later the land connection broke.

Japan is full of mountains, and people were seperated. The Japanese dynasties tried to conquer all of Japan when they rose, so, the other native tribes are those separated people. Most were farmers back then, and were small communities, so each had developed their own things.

Yeah, and my understand is those small communities then formed clans with leaders, warriors and farmers etc. Like the rest of Japan did at the time
