How many basic forms of karate are there?
It depends on the actual style of karate. There are many variations between the styles, so there is no one 'universal' first form , or kata. Some styles share the same forms, at different ranks. For example, one style's first form may be another one's second, and with slight variations.

What is the difference between shotokan karate and Goju ryu karate?
4th kyu in Meibukan Goju-ryu. The key to what separates Goju from numerous other styles of karate is in its name. "Goju" is made up of the Japanese words "go" (hard), and "ju" (soft), literally meaning hard-soft style karate. Hard refers to the straight/linear closed hand techniques. Soft refers to the more circular open hand techniques. The style is a combination of the two. I find it to have less kicking and more focus on "kata" (forms) than Shotokan. Shotokan was derived in Japan based on Shorin-ryu karate from Okinawa.
What is the oldest Japanese martial art?
It would be very hard to specifically come up with a branch. They all have roots in the martial arts of 100's of years ago. Karate came from Okinawa and elements of it were merged with Japanese and Korean arts to become what we know as karate today. The kata for karate came from Okinawa and was based on a number of Chinese forms from kung fu. Until recently the kata learned in Tang So Do and Taikwondo were those from Japanese Shotokan karate, which was a variation of Shorin Ryu from Okinawa.

Is Marc Rose Good At Fifa 09?
He was born in Naha, Okinawa and was the adopted son of a wealthy businessman[citation needed]. Miyagi began his study in Karate-do at the age of nine (or eleven)[citation needed]. He first learned martial arts from Ryuko Aragaki[citation needed], who then introduced him to Naha-te Master Kanryo Higashionna when Miyagi was 14. Under the tutelage of this Master, Miyagi underwent a very long and arduous period of training. After the death of Master Kanryo Higashionna, Miyagi travelled to Fujian Province in China as his teacher had done before him. In China he studied the Shaolin and Pa Kua forms of Chinese boxing. From the blending of these systems, the hard linear/external form of Shaolin, the soft circular/internal form of Pa Kua, and his native Naha-Te, a new system emerged. However, it was not until 1929 that Chojun Miyagi named the system Goju-ryu, meaning "hard soft style". After some years in China, Chōjun Miyagi returned to Naha where he opened a dojo (training hall)[citation needed]. He taught for many years, and even though Miyagi's reputation as a karate man was enormous, and even Kano Jigoro, the founder of judo, came to Okinawa to learn specific karate take-downs, his greatest achievements lie in popularization and the organization of karate teaching methods. He introduced karate into Okinawa police work, high schools and other fields of society. He revised and further developed Kata Sanchin - the hard aspect of Goju, and created Kata Tensho - the soft aspect. These kata are considered to contain the essence of the Goju-ryu style. The highest kata, Suparinpei is said to contain the full syllabus of Goju-ryu kata. Shisouchin was Miyagi's favorite kata at the end of his years. Tensho was influenced by the White Crane kata Ryokushu, which he learned from his long-time friend Gokenki. With a goal of unification of various karate styles which was in fashion at that time (see Funakoshi Gichin for his works in Japan), he also created more Shurite-like katas Gekisai Dai Ichi and Gekisai Dai Ni in 1940, taking techniques from higher forms (notably Suparimpe also upper block was uncommon for Goju-ryu at that time) and incorporating them into a shorter forms. It is said he created these kata to bridge the gap between Sanchin-kata and Saifa kata, which contains much more complex moves compared to Sanchin kata.

Kata is the most basic building block of karate. It builds muscle, creates automatic responses and serves as the foundation for learning application. Once one has learned kata, you can start learning bunkai, the application of the kata, to combat situations.
Which Karate kata is the longest when done at the average appropriate speed?
The proper execution varies from style to style, so it would be hard to definitively say. Goju Shiho - 56 Moves is pretty long, but the Kushanku katas can take a long time to execute as well.
