Before August 1945, military leaders in Japan were primarily focused on sustaining and expanding their empire, which had grown through aggressive campaigns in China and Southeast Asia. They were deeply committed to the notion of bushido, or the warrior code, which emphasized honor and sacrifice. Despite facing significant setbacks, including defeats in the Pacific and the strategic bombing of Japanese cities, the military leadership remained resistant to surrender and prioritized fighting to the bitter end. This mindset ultimately contributed to Japan's decision to continue the war until the devastating bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945.
The military leaders of Japan blamed the West, the United States and Britain in particular, for its economic problems. Japan decided that a global economy was the only answer for the economic chaos that enveloped it.
Oda Nobugaga was a daimyo in the 1500s who was a fierce warrior that used guns to conquer nearly half of Japan before his death in 1582. Then, Toyotomi Hideyoshi took his place. He conquered the rest of Japan before he died in 1598. His sucessor, Tokugawa Ieyasu founded a dynasty that held power until 1868. He also founded the capital Edo, modern day Japan.

In Japan, regents played a crucial role in the rise of military leaders during the feudal era by serving as political intermediaries between the emperor and the samurai class. As regents held significant power and often lacked strong ties to the imperial family, they relied on military support to maintain control, leading to the empowerment of samurai and military leaders. This dynamic created opportunities for ambitious samurai to rise in status and eventually seize power, culminating in the establishment of shogunates where military leaders replaced the emperor as the de facto rulers of Japan.
Japan was under the Imperial Kingdom of Japan. It was ruled by military leaders, government leaders and there was an Emperor. The Emperor was Hirohito during World War 2. They were not under British rule. The Brits and the Americans were Japans enemies then. Now they are not enemies.
