I live in Belgium. My cousin died last year and was owner of a piece of land. I am one of the heirs of the inheritance. My cousin didn't leave any will. All the heirs are aunts, uncles and cousins. According to the Belgian law we can all inherit from our cousin. But in Japan, the generation below the nieces and nephews do not hold any inhertance. My question is : Can any of us inherit the land? Does it become the property of the Japanese state? Thank you for your answer. Best regards
