In 1926 the
unassuming grandson of Emperor Meiji, succeeded to the throne. He adopted Showa
or "enlightened peace" as the official philosophy for his reign, but
when General Baron Tanaka Giichi became prime
minister in 1927, he declared the resumption of an aggressive policy toward
China which ended in 1945 when he made an unparalleled radio broadcast
announcing Japan's unconditional surrender to the Allies. Under Allied
occupation, Hirohito retained the throne, but the new constitution of 1946 made
him “symbol of the state and of the unity of the people,”. His reign
was the longest and one of the most turbulent in Japan's history.
