So emperor Hirohito died and lived to his 80s or 90s, why wasn’t he instantly killed or sent to jail after the war ended. Did he get punished at all?
In: 1701
The Japanese emperor at that time was seen like a god. Anyone correct me if I’m wrong. Killing the emperor after we had won the war would have only radicalized more of the Japanese population. He was more useful alive and on an allied leash.
