These are the differences between Japan today, and Japan in the 1930s and 1940s.
1940s Japan :
Dictatorship in an Absolute Monarchy, governed soley by an Emperor who never earned the job, and never had to work, never had to compromise, never had to think, never had to do anything except be born and have his parents die.
The industrialization of Japan was less than 50 years old.
The product of Japanese manufacturing was not as good as American or British.
Japan's economy was simply not as rich as it is today, in fact just 40 or 50 years before the 1940s, Japan was considered by the west as being "Right for colonization". lol
Japanese resident citizens had a very limited view (if any) of the outside world because of the cultural originality and homogeneity.
Japan Today :
A Constitutional Monarchy, with voting rights, and the democratically elected "Diet" is the government, much more powerful than the Emperor.
The Industrialization of Japan is over 100 years old.
The Japanese economy is the Third richest in the world, and its market produces probably the best (number 1) in the world.
Japanese people are very well connected with the world.
Those are some of the differences between the 1940s and Today, and also some of the advantages that the USA had in the 1940s, that it doesn't have today.
So keep giving smart alec answers that are unrelated to my threads about sports... it fun to kick your ass here with facts.
