Can you truly compare Japan with the U.S.A.?
A people who for all their lives were under the feudal system subject to the emperor
Compared to people who broke off the chains of being a subject
Apples to oranges
Actually, you are kind of showing your profound ignorance of Japanese history.
For most of history, the Tenno (Emperor) was a symbolic leader. Real power was held by the Daimyo (fuedal lords) and Shogun (Military leader.) In the Meiji restoration, the powers of the Daimyou and Shogun were removied, and Japan expiramented with being a parlimentary democracy, just like Europe and the US.
As opposed to the US, where a few rich slave rapers talked a bunch of dumb crackers to revolt against a benign parlimentary democracy and saved us from the horrors of being Canadians.
Once again joe says someone is ignorant but shows the opposite.
Joe Japan did not do anything without the blessing of the god Emperor he was reverenced and worshiped
