The ocean is all around Japan, and is the easiest way to get good, nourishing meat.
Why sushi? Why not? Cooking food is more part of the European/American culture than the Japanese; besides, sushi is tasty. Now, if the Japanese ate a lot of pork, they would have learned centuries ago to cook it. The Japanese also eat a lot of pickled foods (which are not cooked).
In Japan fish happen to be easy to come by because it is group of islands in the middle of the sea. They had to do something with all of that fish, why not make food out of it? Plus it is very nutritional as long as you eat it around the time it is made.
Sushi is healthy and tasty, it has been part of Japanese culture for centuries. The techniques are a celebrated skill. See related link...
