	Diet of Japan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Constitution of Japan does not specify the number of members of each house of the Diet, the voting system, or the necessary qualifications of those who may vote or be returned in parliamentary elections, thus allowing all of these things to be determined by law.
		Membership of the Diet is open to citizens who are at least twenty-five in the case of the House of Representatives and thirty in the case of the upper house, and no one may be a member of both houses at the same time.
		The Diet consisted of a House of Representatives and a House of Peers (貴族院; Kizokuin).

	Emperor of Japan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Japanese administrations have usually been in a position where the emperor was something that had to be accepted as a necessary inconvenience - as the Italian government has had to live with the Pope residing within the borders of Italy.
		By the 1930s the Japanese cabinet was largely composed of pseudo-fascist military leaders who used the emperor and his supposed divinity as an ultra-nationalistic rallying point for expansion of the Empire.
		In part, the Japanese imperial dynasty owes its longevity in the male line to the use of concubines, a practice that only ended in the Taishō period (1912-1926).

	the Japanese diet is higher in protein than many would think
		If I were to apply a protein/carb ratio to their diet routines, I would assume it would approximately equal 80/20 carb to protein due to the large amounts of rice in relation to fish.

		I agree with you on the ratio of carb/protein in the Japanese diet.
