	Emperor of Japan at AllExperts
		Cloistered emperors have been known to come into conflict with the reigning emperor from time to time; a notable example is the Hogen Rebellion of 1156, in which former Emperor Sutoku attempted to seize power from the then current Emperor Go-Shirakawa, both of whow were supported by different clans of samurai.
		Although the emperor currently performs many of the roles of a ceremonial sovereign as head of state, there has been persistent controversy within Japan as to whether the emperor is in fact a true monarch in a political sense or merely a hereditary pretender holding such office within a constitutional parliamentary republic.
		The acceptable source of imperial wives, brides for the emperor and crown prince, were even legislated into the Meiji-era imperial house laws (1889), which stipulated that daughters of Sekke (the five main branches of the higher Fujiwara) and daughters of the imperial clan itself were primarily acceptable brides.

		Since Emperor Komei was dead set against foreign influence, he often incurred the wrath of anti-Tokugawa reformists, such as Choshu (present-day Yamaguchi) and Satsuma (modern-day Kagoshima) domains.
		It is at this time that Emperor Komei not only taught Asahigata what he called a "secret art of the Divine Nation (Japan)" but also entrusted him with the Emperor's autographs and the Imperial Flag.
		That Emperor Komei deposited the Imperial Flag with Asahigata, a mere commoner is unbelievable, but this means how volatile the political situation around the Mikado may have been.

		The Emperor's advisors tried to avoid war by raking their brains up and finally came up with the idea of incorporating the Shogun and his closest men into the Emperor's administration, and the ex-Shogun said he would accept it.
		Now pictures of the Emperor and Empress were put everywhere, but in public places the faces in the photographs were hid behind a veil that cloaked the frames.

		It was not Yoshinobu's fault, but the late Emperor Komei and now his son Mutsuhito had been pissed big time because of some politically significant incidents invoked by Tokugawa Shoguns lately, that seemed to undermine the 'mandate from heaven'.
		Emperor Mutsuhito's young 'advisors' might have overlooked such things as having no meaning at all, but the old clans of loyal warlords couldn't dismiss it as anything trivial.
		To the codes of honor that they still upheld in 1868, whosoever was against the Emperor was the enemy of the state, and if it was the Shogun, then loyalist clans must defend the honor of the Imperial House by punishing the Shogun.
