Description

Formerly a mostly secular country, accustomed to independent social interaction and revolts against unjust royal dynasties, Japan population became docile to vertical practices of power, the insertion of Shinto (religious syncretism) and revival of a not so historically successful practice: The Mikado. From there on, most university scholars denouncing this phenomena were ostracized and treated as treasonous liberals.
