The Roman Emperor was the ruler of the Roman State during the imperial period (starting at about 27 BC). The Romans had no single term for the office: Latin titles such as imperator(from which English emperor ultimately derives), augustus, caesar and princeps were all associated with it. In practice, the emperor was supreme ruler of Rome and supreme commander of the Roman legions.In theory, however, Rome remained a republic, the res publica (literally, thing of the people), and the emperor's status was merely that of primus inter pares-first among equals. This legal fictionbecame increasingly meaningless as the emperors consolidated their power. However, it was maintained at least to a ceremonial degree until the very end of the Roman Empire. The Western Roman Empire met its end in 476 and the Eastern Roman Empire in 1453.....hope this helps???
The leader of Japan during World War 2 was Emperor Hirohito, he was brainwashed at a young age about war and battles and remained in power until his death in 1989.
Emperor Hirohito was best known for being the Japanese Emperor during the Second World War, and the first Emperor of Japan that most Americans, British & Dutch had ever heard of. He was instrumental in forcing the Japanese government (controlled by the Army) to offer to surrender to the Allies. He was primarily a figurehead only for Japanese actions during the war, and was allowed to remain Emperor after the war by the Allied Occupation Powers. Note: the current photo above is of General Tojo, the head of the Japanese government for most of the war, and one of the primary architects of Japan's war of conquest and a war criminal.
Retired US Army General Shinseki is the new US Veterans Affairs Director.
The British army officer that replaced James Ambercromby as supreme commander in America during war was, General Jeffrey Amherst.

A supreme general of an imperial army would have to be a special person appointed directly by the emperor for a limited time in order to get a certain job done. You see, the Romans did not have the same command structure as modern armies, and the two can only be loosely be compared.

The US military & the US President Truman thought it was necessary.It is an opinion type question. I have studied this more many years, and I have decided it was necessary to drop the A-Bombs on these two Japanese cities.It finally forced the Japanese Emperor to take an immediate and public position for ending the war as soon as possible. His intervention (because the Japanese Army ran the government) was necessary. The Japanese Army always claimed that they had the support of the Emperor, whether it was true or not. The Emperor was not in favor of fighting to the last drop of blood (civilian & military), as some in the Japanese Army proposed. The Emperor's public radio broadcast forced the Army to acknowledge & agree to the Emperor's decision.

The Pacific Theater of Operations was so large it required two US/Allied supreme commanders: Navy-Admiral Nimitz/Army-General MacArthur.
