The new Emperor, although he was made to abdicate in favor of his son Sadahito (the Emperor Shirakawa) within four years, continued to scheme to gain power over the Fujiwaras from behind the scenes.

The aim of "Emperor of Japan" is to shed some light on the life of the Meiji emperor while placing him in the context of his times.
Meiji was a diligent emperor who understood the gravity of his position and the responsibilities it entailed by taking a more active role than his predecessors in discussing and examining state matters with his officials.
However, the environment to foster the rise of Japan as a world power was certainly fostered by the emperor's departure from the traditional role of the Japanese emperor, a position which under the preceeding Shogunate period could be said to resemble that of a national high priest.
