All art that teaches striking also teaches joint techniques and takedowns and visa versa.

I find your ending tag confusing. All art that teaches striking also teaches joint techniques and takedowns and visa versa. If anyone teaches you "striking art" or "Grappling art" he's teaching you half an art. (which, in this country doesn't surprise me)

Which country do they teach the whole art?

Which style has all the following tools that you will need in combat?

- jab, cross, hook, upper cut, hammer fist, back fist, side punch, ...
- front kick, side kick, roundhouse kick, hook kick, flying knee, ...
- finger lock, wrist lock, elbow lock, shoulder lock, head lock, knee lock, ankle lock, ...
- hip throw, leg twist, leg lift, leg block, single leg, double legs, ...
- side mount, full mount, 69 mount, arm bar, leg bar, choke, ...

If such style exist on this planet, I'll be the 1st person who want to learn it.

Well, let's see. I was 13 when I studied Shorinji Kempo. That was a lot of throwing, chokes and holds as well as strikes and kicks. For the last 40 years, Chaquan, Chuojiao, Bagua, I can't think of any time when I was limited to a "Striking" or "throwing". Even when I studied Bagua staff, there was joint locks, throws and take-downs.

Well, I take that back. I was 7 years old when I took judo. I was limited to wrestling there, but I think that was an exception. Or, maybe that's how they taught kids, who knows.
