	Japanese history: Muromachi Period
		The emperor Go-Daigo was able to restore imperial power in Kyoto and to overthrow the Kamakura Bakufu in 1333.

		This was possible because of a succession dispute that had been going on between two lines of the imperial family since the death of emperor Go-Saga in 1272.

		In 1331, after another scheme was unveiled by the Hojos, Emperor Go-Daigo raised up arms, and a sort of war ensued, and he, of course, lost everything.
		So the most practical thing to do was the Hojos' scenario: this Emperor was against them; find another Emperor who's 100% on their side.
		But the Emperor, clinging on his notion of divine power as the valid Emperor between the two that were reigning at the same time (official history of Japan agrees with him in this), would never wanted his orders being questioned, let alone challenged.

	Harvard University Press: Kenmu : Go–Daigo's Revolution by Andrew Goble
		In prewar Japan, Go-Daigo was glorified as a precursor of the Meiji emperor, and unorthodox interpretations of his achievements were risky.
		Andrew Goble argues that the Kenmu regime, as interpreted by the Emperor Go-Daigo, who ruled from 1318-1339, despite apparently failing, led Japan into another age.
		From this perspective, the remarkable thing about Japan in the modern period, is its success, especially since 1945, in transforming the Emperor's role into that of a constitutional monarch,in a modern democratic government.
