===[[Emperor Hirohito]] (Symbol)===
Emperor Hirohito was the 124th Emperor of Japan, reigning from December 1926 to his death in 1989. He was the longest reigning Emperor in Japanese history, ruling for 63 years. He made up one-third of the Axis Powers during World War II alongside Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.

Hirohito himself was known for his cruelty during his earlier years as Emperor. He was known for his hatred towards other Asian groups; some estimate he may have been the mastermind behind the deaths of 10,000,000 people (mostly Koreans and Filipinos). He particularly enjoyed impaling them with sharp pieces of bamboos with swords and his forces also forced prisoners to watch their families being raped.

Although [[Imperial Japan|his regime]] would calm down significantly after WWII, he has been considered a brutal dictator, and his likeness is sometimes praised by the Far-Right.[[File:Hirohito_in_dress_uniform.jpg|center|thumb|Hirohito]]
