I need to compare Shinto religion with Dinka religion?

I have to write an essay on comparing the two religions Shinto, and Dinka.

They're both animistic... That's the only link.

Why not just mix them up and write about a Dinko religion?

Hi Zakk, Various religions focus on different aspects of importance. The Shinto religion, the principal of Japan, embraces a wide variety of beliefs and practices. Shinto emphasizes upon the worship of land and nature and of ancestors and ancient heroes. It also focuses on the divinity of the emperor.

The Japanese term this native religion as Jami-no-michi, ?the way of the gods.? However, there are still scholars who do not fully understand the true meaning.

Here is a site with some information on Shinto:
