Hideki Tojo rests in Migane, Aichi Prefecture
The photo I posted is of the Mausoleum of the Seven Martyrs of Japan, located on Mt. Mt. Mt. Mt. in Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture. It enshrines seven soldiers and politicians who were executed by the Tokyo Tribunal.
Those enshrined are Hideki Tojo, Kenji Doihara, Seishiro Itagaki, Hyotaro Kimura, Iwane Matsui, Akira Muto, and Hiroki Hirota. The remains of these seven people are said to be buried under this mausoleum. In other words, the graves of Hideki Tojo and others are located here.
What are China and South Korea demanding
So what exactly are China and South Korea saying? They say that the Prime Minister should not go to Yasukuni Shrine because war criminals are enshrined there. The German Chancellor is loudly shouting that he will visit Hitler's grave.
All the graves are in different places
As mentioned above, the grave is in a different location. A shrine is a shrine. It is said that there are over ２,４６６,０００ heroic spirits enshrined at Yasukuni Shrine, and each of their graves was probably erected by their local community or family members.
I wonder if the Japanese Prime Minister went to visit the Mausoleum of the Seven Martyrs of Japan in Aichi Prefecture .
A shrine is not a grave
A shrine only has a divine seat, which is said to be the place where the god appears and sits. A shrine is not a grave. It is essentially impossible to separate the divine throne. If there is a division, it is a branch shrine.
Read it together
The Greater East Asia War and the spirit of Kazuu Hakko have been erased from history Did Japan just invade?
Greater East Asia War erased from history
Kazuu Hakko is the spirit of world peace
Kazuu Hakko disappeared
Japanese who saved Jews
A time when ethnic discrimination was common
World War II included the European War, the Greater East Asia War, and the Pacific War. GHQ banned the official use of the words Greater East Asia War and Hakko Ichiu.
In Europe, Nazi Germany invaded, and the Pacific War was a war between Japan and the United States, but what happened in Asia has been omitted. There are also stories of the Sino-Japanese War, the Manchurian Incident, and the enslavement of the Korean Peninsula, which never happened.
Hakko Ichiu is the spirit advocated by Japan during the Greater East Asia War, and although it is a worldview centered on the Emperor that is a departure from current values, the essence is a world in which the world respects each other without discrimination of ethnic groups. It means to make.
This was the idea of Greater East Asia in confronting Western colonies. GHQ has historically erased the truth underlying these words and ideas. The intention is clear, Japan's war is simply a war of aggression, and the story is that America stopped it.
Hitoshi Imamura, who fought for the liberation of Indonesia, rejected the coercive policy theory as clearly going against the spirit of Kazuu Hakko, and did not change his conciliatory policy.
Kiichiro Higuchi, who rescued Jews fleeing Nazi persecution, also carried out his duties based on the spirit of Kazuu Hakko. The assimilation policy on the Korean Peninsula and Taiwan is based on Kazuu Hakko's idea that once people become part of the same nation, they will be treated as people without distinction.
It is difficult to say whether Kazuu Hakko's spirit is correct in modern times from the perspective of people's right to self-determination, but the world at that time was full of ethnic discrimination, and the world economy was built on this premise, and the dominant ethnic group was divided into It was a time when people were divided into dominant ethnic groups.
Although there is no such thing as a good war, Japan at the time did not invade Asia just to plunder it. Think about why it was removed from history.
I think of Yasukuni Shrine as a graveyard
China and South Korea demand that the Yasukuni Shrine be separated for war criminals, but this is probably also the idea of graves. The remains of the heroes are not buried anywhere in Yasukuni Shrine. They mistakenly think it's some sort of mass grave.
South Korea, a country that digs up graves
In South Korea, the grave of a Korean War hero buried in South Korea's national cemetery was recently dug up because he had served in the former Japanese army. From Japan's perspective, it is a country with a culture that is extremely abnormal. In the first place, shrines are not graves, and that is also the extent of our understanding of graves.
Yasukuni Shrine throughout Japan
In conclusion, if Yasukuni Shrine is enshrined in two parts, there will be two Yasukuni Shrines, and if it is enshrined in ten parts, there will only be ten Yasukuni Shrines. It might be a good idea to have Yasukuni Shrines all over Japan. It may be a talisman to keep people who flirt with you away from Japan.

His Majesty the Emperor, who continued researching fish, discovered 10 new species - two were announced at academic conferences after his abdication.
Most members of the imperial family enroll at Gakushuin University, and their academic majors are not related to politics, economics, or military affairs. The reason is said to be that the Emperor, as a symbol of Japan, is not involved in these activities. Emperor Showa studied biology, and when his attendants said that the grass they cut around the Imperial Palace and Fukiage Palace was ``cutting weeds,'' he said, ``There is no such thing as weeds.''
``Every plant has a name, and each grows in its own favorite place. We shouldn't take a one-sided approach and label it as a weed. Be careful,'' he said. .
In 1964, His Majesty the Emperor Emeritus, then Crown Prince, visited Thailand with Her Imperial Highness Princess Michiko. When he met with King Bhumibol Adulyadej and learned about Thailand's current situation of food shortages, he proposed to King Adulyadej that they try growing tilapia as a protein source. Upon returning to Japan, he donated 50 tilapia raised at the Akasaka imperial estate to Thailand.
When former King Bhumibol Adulyadej bred them in his palace pond, the number of young fish increased to 10,000 in a blink of an eye due to their ease of raising and strong reproductive ability. They were sent to various places through the Fisheries Experiment Station, and became a source of food for the Thai people. Even today, it is a common fish in Thailand under the name Pranin. Pura is an abbreviation for Emperor, and Nin is the kanji for Akihito read aloud.
His Majesty the Emeritus also majored in biology and mainly conducted research on fish. In June 2021, after the Emperor's abdication, two new species of goby were discovered, and His Majesty the Emperor himself named them ``Awayukiftus goby'' and ``Sebosyftus goby'' and announced them at an academic conference. A total of 10 new species of fish have been discovered and announced to the world by His Majesty the Emperor.
Emperor Kanmu's mother was Takano Shinkasa, a descendant of the King of Baekje - Don't forget that the imperial family is inherited in the male line.
The mother of Emperor Kanmu during the Heian period was a person named Takano Shingasa, who was an immigrant from Baekje. The relationship between Japan and Baekje is often unknown, but it can be speculated that it goes back a long way. In ``Gishiwajinden,'' it is written that Wa (Japan) was in contact with Inuya Korea, which means that Japanese people lived in what is now the Japanese archipelago and the southern tip of the Korean peninsula.
Before that, it was a Japanese-style tumulus. Keyhole-shaped tombs have been discovered in the Baekje region of the Korean Peninsula. If we trace the spread of polished stone tools excavated from the Iwajuku Ruins in Japan, we can see evidence of their spread to the Korean Peninsula in chronological order. Baekje was destroyed in the Battle of Baekchonggang in 663 and retreated from the Korean Peninsula. At that time, many Baekje people fled to Japan.
The family was founded by Zenko, the son of King Uija, the last king of Baekje, and was given the surname of Baekje King as a Japanese clan. It is said that her descendant was the mother of Emperor Kanmu. My memory is that a woman from the imperial family married the King of Baekje when Baekje was on the Korean peninsula, but I tried looking for it but couldn't find it. The custom of taking a commoner as a wife dates back to the post-war period, and if until then you could not become the empress of the emperor without some sort of blood relation, then it means that you had a relative relationship before then.
There have been various debates about this theory, but it is not incorrect as it is mentioned on the birthday of His Majesty the current Retired Emperor that Emperor Kanmu's birth mother was a descendant of King Muryeong of Baekje. right. I actually heard these birthday messages, but I honestly remember being surprised at what His Majesty the Emeritus said.
Based on this, many people in Korea say that the Emperor is a descendant of Koreans, but this is only because the Emperor was a descendant of the King of Baekje during that generation, and the imperial family is inherited through the male line in the first place. , I can't trace my genealogy back to my mother. Moreover, since Baekje was destroyed on the Korean Peninsula, Japan was in a position to protect it. And since they chose to assimilate with the Japanese, they are not Koreans.
What is the origin of the name Zero Fighter? The concept of imperial history was eliminated and it was excluded from school education.
Zero is the best fighter plane in the world
Zero Fighter adopted in 2600 of the Imperial Era
Where did the concept of imperial history disappear?
The concept of Japanese imperial history
Lost Imperial Era
The imperial period is the very history of Japan
The world's best fighter plane, the former Japanese military's pride, is the Zero Fighter. The Zero fighter is a carrier-based fighter that was adopted by the Japanese Navy in 1940. The aircraft boasted the world's lightest weight, and above all, the pilot's proficiency is said to have been at the highest level at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
The number 0 in Zero Fighter comes from the last two digits of 00 in the year 2600 of the Imperial era. This is a surprisingly unknown fact. In history classes at school, we learn about kamikaze attacks and the Zero Fighter, but I don't remember ever hearing the concept of the imperial era.I wonder what that means.
In fact, many Japanese people don't even know the concept of the imperial period. If that's the case, there's no reason why the 0 in Zero Fighter has any meaning. It's very strange. The Koki is Japan's unique calendar that starts from the year in which the first emperor, Emperor Jimmu, ascended the throne.
This year is the 2682nd year of the Imperial Era, so it is simple and clear that it has been 82 years since the Type 0 fighter was adopted. That would be 2682 years after Japan worshiped the Emperor and demonstrated its national polity. This shows the number of years that Japan is considered to be the longest-lasting country in the world.
It's a mystery why they stopped using the concept of imperial history at all. When I looked into it, I found that there was no scientific basis for it, such as whether Emperor Jinmu actually existed, or whether February 11th (Koki New Year) was really the founding day of Japan.
And it seems that due to GHQ's wishes, the National Foundation Day itself has been abolished. So what exactly is Western history based on the birth of Jesus Christ?
Japan is the longest-lasting nation in world history. Its history and culture have been formed within the framework of the nation that has been inherited. The most straightforward time scale for Japan's long history and culture can be said to be the imperial period.
Although the concept of era name remains, there is no concept of imperial period. This is not to say that history textbooks and all Western calendar notations should be replaced with the Imperial Period. At the very least, we should recognize that Japan's history is long and that Japanese children were born into it, and that we have some role to play in inheriting it, and that we should be proud of it. The revival of is important.
Osaka and the Meiji Restoration - Koan Ogata's Tekijuku, the roots of Osaka University where Yukichi Fukuzawa also attended, still exists in Osaka.
When I researched Osaka and the end of the Edo period, I discovered that there was a school called Tekijuku, which was founded by Koan Ogata to study Dutch studies. It seems to have roots in Osaka University. Japan at the time was isolated from the rest of the world, trading with the Netherlands through Nagasaki, and receiving academic information from the Netherlands about the world. This was called Dutch studies. Koan Ogata is said to be the father of modern medicine in Japan, and even appears in the popular drama ``JIN.'' Yukichi Fukuzawa also entered Tekijuku in Osaka at the age of 20 to study Dutch studies.
Keio University appears to be based on the former Dutch Studies School. In Japan, learning was carried out in small cram schools and terakoya like this one. They were not in the position of teacher and student in the current educational system, but rather had a close relationship between teacher and student. Learning flowed from the source to the disciples, and had the energy to directly change the country and society.
Seoul National University was formerly an imperial university and was established in 1924 as Gyeongseong Imperial University. It is said that Japan brought modern learning to the Korean peninsula, but what is the true story? In other words, there was no teacher-disciple relationship that aimed to enrich the Korean peninsula.
I have heard that Seoul National University is the best academic institution in South Korea, but what do you think about the origins of the university and its academic activities?
In any case, education during the Japanese colonial period on the Korean peninsula was the same as it is today. If we were to call this a science, it would be completely different.
Japanese industrial machinery Most Korean manufacturing industrial machinery is made in Japan.Industrial robots are called the world's Big Four: FANUC (Japan), Yasukawa Electric (Japan), KUKA (Germany), and ABB (Switzerland).Kawasaki Heavy Industries (Japan) and Fujikoshi (Japan) are included in the top six.Of course, modern products are made by machines.Machines are also needed to make machines.
