State Shinto refers to the form of Shinto that was promoted and supported by the Japanese government during the Meiji period (late 19th to early 20th century) as a means to unify the country under one national religion. Shinto, on the other hand, is the traditional indigenous religion of Japan that has a long history and is still practiced by many people today.
Shinto is an Anglicized version of the Chinese term "shin tao". The term translates as "the way of the gods."

In Shinto, the creation story involves the emergence of the divine siblings Izanagi and Izanami, who were tasked with creating the Japanese islands and deities. They stirred the ocean with a spear, and when water dripped from it, the drops formed the islands. However, a tragic event occurred during their marriage ceremony, leading to the birth of fire deity Kagutsuchi and affecting the subsequent events in the Shinto mythology.
