Japan's Empire Disaster, Paperback / softback Book

Japan's Empire Disaster Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This book provides an understanding of the expansionist policy practiced by Japan during the end of the nineteenth and the first period of the twentieth century.

From the adoption of the Meiji constitution in 1889 and the first period of the Showa era (1927-1945), the military controlled the Japanese constitutional government.

The result was years of political instability, more internal conflicts, violence, murders, assassinations, overseas aggression, and war crimes.

The book demonstrates that in Japan, during the Pacific War, the real driving force of the war was the Imperial Japanese Army and the Imperial Japanese Navy.

Hirohito, as supreme commander, gave full support to the army and navy.

On multiple occasions, he sanctioned many government policies.

In fact, he was responsible for the atrocities that the Japanese troops committed in Asia during the Pacific War.

Japan's Empire Disaster is a book of information and training.

The book describes Japan's opening to modernization with the 1853 arrival of commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry in the country, and also details the history of the wars launched by Emperor Meiji and Emperor Hirohito to build Japan's empire.
