(emperor #1)

(‘660 BCE’ – ‘585 BCE’)

********************************************

.

(the emperor of japan is the head of the ‘imperial family’ and is the ceremonial ‘head of state’ of japan’s system of ‘constitutional monarchy’)

.

(according to the ‘1947 constitution’, he is “the symbol of the ‘state’ and of the unity of the people”)

(historically, he is also the highest authority of the ‘shinto’ religion as he and his family are said to be the ‘direct descendants’ of the sun-goddess ‘amaterasu’, and his importance also lies in dealing with ‘heavenly affairs’, including ‘shinto’ ritual and rites throughout the ‘nation’)

(in ‘japanese’, the ’emperor’ is called tennō (天皇), which means “heavenly sovereign”)

(in ‘english’, the use of the term mikado (帝) for the ’emperor’ was once ‘common’, but is now considered ‘obsolete’)

(currently, the ’emperor of japan’ is the only remaining ‘monarch’ in the world reigning under the title of “emperor”)

(the ‘imperial house of japan’ is the oldest continuing ‘hereditary monarchy’ in the world)

(in the kojiki (finished ‘712’) and nihon shoki (finished ‘720’), it is said that ‘japan’ was founded in ‘660 BC’ by ’emperor jimmu’)

(the current ’emperor’ is ‘akihito’)

(he acceded the ‘chrysanthemum throne’ upon the death of his father, ’emperor shōwa’ (aka ‘hirohito’), in ‘1989’)

(the role of the ’emperor of japan’ has historically alternated between a largely ‘ceremonial symbolic role’ and that of an ‘actual imperial ruler’)

(since the establishment of the first ‘shogunate’ in ‘1192’, the ’emperors of japan’ have rarely taken on a role as ‘supreme battlefield commander’, unlike many ‘western monarchs’)

(‘japanese emperors’ have nearly always been controlled by ‘external political forces’, to varying degrees)

(in fact, between ‘1192’ and ‘1867’, the ‘shoguns’, or their shikken regents in ‘kamakura’ (‘1203’ – ‘1333’), were the de facto rulers of ‘japan’, although they were nominally appointed by the ’emperor’)

(after the ‘meiji restoration’ in ‘1867’, the ’emperor’ was the ’embodiment’ of all ‘sovereign power’ in the ‘realm’, as enshrined in the ‘meiji constitution’ of ‘1889’)

(his current status as a ‘figurehead’ dates from the ‘1947 constitution’)

(since the ‘mid-nineteenth century’, the ‘imperial palace’ has been called kyūjō (宮城), later kōkyo (皇居), and is located on the former site of ‘edo castle’ in the heart of ‘tokyo’)

(earlier, ’emperors’ resided in ‘kyoto’ for nearly ’11 centuries’)

.

(‘the emperor’s birthday’ (currently ‘february 23rd’) is a ‘national holiday’)
