The Yamato is one of the oldest and longest dynasties in the world. Its representatives are considered to be descendants of the goddess Amaterasu.
The history of the great family dates back to the VI century BC and continues to this day. During the reign of the house on the throne more than a hundred emperors and six eras were replaced, and the monarch himself became a symbol of patriotism, national unity and progress.
Is the dynasty really of divine origin? Why did women cease to occupy the Chrysanthemum Throne? Thanks to whom did the prohibition of abdication appear? Who introduced monogamy in the imperial court? What did Emperor Komei and Ii Naosuke, head of the Japanese government, disagree about? In whose hands was the country's power really held during World War II?
The story of Japanese society, thousands of years of culture and traditions that have influenced not only the country but also the globe.
