Up until the 1850's and 1860's Japan had a political system similar to that of medieval Europe but did not keep this when it made contact with Western governments and later changed to a Democracy as a result of the American occupation of Japan after WWII. Today it has a made special democracy for itself by mixing Japanese and American cultures and ideas
.
During the interwar years (1919 to 1939), Japan invaded Manchuria, and began hostilities with China, which would continue until the end of World War II. The Japanese invasion signaled the end of the League of Nations. China appealed to the League, and asked for action to be taken against Japan. Several European countries had trade agreements with Japan, and would not support sanctions. As a result, Japan continued to occupy Manchuria, and all faith was lost in the League of Nations.
Well, its government is a lot more complicated than ours. First of all, they are a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary government. Just to let you know, they still have branches and congress like ours. Although, Japan has an emperor, which is like a king or dictator is the only thing that is different. Japan Emperor right now is Emperor Akihito, commonly referred to as the Mikado?
18th century Japan was time of peace. Samurai warriors turned bureaucrats and Japan still produced military weapons but cost of them was ridiculous.
Unlike China, Japan did not use examinations to hire government officials.
Before Japan had a modern western style government, the shogun provided the government. They were somewhat like the nobility in europe.
There wasn't any emperor, when Tokugawa Ieyasu united Japan, the Edo Period began and Japan isolated itself from the rest of the world. During that time Japan was ruled by shoguns. There were two forms of government, in one the daimyo (feudal lord), ruled a piece of land and he had to swear loyalty to the shogun. In the other form, the shogun ruled with the Bakufu that was like a council who advised the shogun . Both types of government worked together.
Lazy for the most part.
What was culture like in 1800 Japan
