Currently, Japan is a democracy. Though signs of democratic thinking have appeared in Japan since the Meiji Reconstruction, the most significant transition to a democracy was after World War II when Japan created a new constitution. Japan has a Prime Minister which is elected.

The Americans had conquered Japan and were keen on democracy and so the emperor's powers were limited and they made the emperor look human with his consent while previously he was worshipped as a god.
