	Japan
		Japan's first experimental television broadcast was made by scientists in 1939, but the Pacific War shut down research on television, and interest did not re-emerge until the early 1950s, when two stations, NHK(Nippon Hoso Kyokai) and NTV(Nippon Television) began broadcasting.
		Virtually 100% of households in Japan own at least one television, and according to recent reports from NHK, at least one set is turned on for 7 to 8 hours each day.
		Predictions on the future of Japan's televisual technology are cautiously optimistic, but Bruce Stronach points out in his introduction to Japanese television in the Handbook of Japanese Popular Culture that several cultural factors have combined to slow down the introduction of new technologies and types of programming in Japan.

	Emperor of Japan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		The role of the Emperor of Japan has alternated between that of a supreme-rank cleric with largely symbolic powers and that of an actual imperial ruler from the dawn of history until the mid-twentieth century.
		Cloistered Emperors have been known to come into conflict with their offical counterparts from time to time; a notable example is the Hogen Rebellion of 1156, in which the former Emperor Sutoku attempted to seize power from the current Emperor Go-Shirakawa.
		Although the Emperor performs many of the roles of a head of state, there has been a persistent controversy within Japan as to whether the Emperor is in fact head of state or merely someone who acts as one, as a political servant of a republican state.

	Obuchi raises the banner of Japanese nationalism
		In Japan's schools, the use of the Rising Sun flag and the singing of the Kimigayo, which calls for “the reign of the Emperor to continue for 1,000 generations,” has been a source of sharp conflict between school administrations and the teachers' union.
		Emperor Hirohito was absolved of any war crimes and retained his position even though stripped of his former powers and his quasi-divine status.
		As in other countries, the rise of nationalist sentiment in Japan is connected to a deepening social and economic crisis which has produced the highest levels of unemployment since the 1940s and growing social polarisation and dislocation.

	ejcjs - Media Intimidation in Japan: A Close Encounter with Hard Japanese Nationalism
		Even accepting that the extreme right in Japan is not an entirely coherent group and that its members are often in ideological dispute with one another, taken together, its activities add up to a massive and organized intimidatory presence.
		Prime Minister Mori's recent slip, that Japan was a "divine nation centered on the emperor," is only the latest example of how apparently extreme rightist posturing, like calls for the restoration of the emperor's powers and denials of well-documented war crimes, find echoes all the way up to the top of Japan's dim political corridors.
		What Japan suggests, however, is a situation even more problematic: one in which the media do not set, but rather limit, the agenda, thereby letting others (notably political actors) set it instead.

		Japan's super-competitive system of 'examination hell' is engulfing ever-younger children, spawning a new industry of cram schools to help the baby boomers' babies pass entrance exams for elite private kindergartens and elementary schools.

		'Japan appears to be one of the most egalitarian countries in the world, but it is not,' said Todai education professor Toshiyuki Shiomi.

	Emperors of Japan - SamuraiWiki
		The succession of Emperors as described in the Nihon Shoki and the Kojiki cannot be taken at face-value.
		Emperor Sujin is believed to have been the first "historical" Emperor (being the first Emperor to rule in the growing Yamato region) after the tribal confederacies that had held power previously--this does not mean, however, that he and those that followed did not have highly ficionalized lives.
		This assertion could very well apply to many other early Emperors, while others are most likely composite figures--an amalgamation of various important figures in early Japan.

		The rapid influx of Asian immigration into Japan, the rising (and then setting) economic sun and the disenfranchisement of Tokyo's leadership in Asia are the catalysts to the rapidly emerging "Who are we?" industry.
