Although the Japanese emperor can't reach the level of "eternal series", it hasn't changed for thousands of years. The Japanese emperor is more of a "mascot" role in Japan, similar to the current Queen of England.
1, the Japanese emperor family really passed down for thousands of years. The earliest record of the Japanese emperor was around 600 AD. Since then, the Japanese emperor family has continued to this day. Today, the Japanese emperor family has lasted for nearly 1500 years. It must be said that the royal family that can last for so long is indeed the first in history, because other countries will have power change and royal family change after experiencing Guo for a period of time.
2. In the continuation of these thousands of years, the Japanese emperor has little power, which can be passed down stably. I think the main reason why the Japanese emperor family can pass on safely is that they never want power. In Japanese folk, the emperor is the belief of the people, so it will definitely not be cancelled. Besides, they don't have any power. So successive Japanese rulers have never given them anything. During the Meiji period, Emperor Meiji gained some powers and promoted the implementation of the Meiji Restoration. However, the days of holding real power did not last long.
The emperor of Japan has been a "mascot" for thousands of years. I think the Japanese emperor is worse than the Queen of England. Although they are both "mascots" now, the British royal family has been monopolizing power for centuries. It was not until the Glorious Revolution that the power of the Queen of England gradually shifted, while the Japanese emperor only had real power for a short time until Emperor Meiji. Prior to this, the Japanese emperor has always been a "mascot" and a symbol of Japan.
Although the Japanese emperor is not an "eternal series", it has been passed down for at least thousands of years. During these thousands of years, Japanese emperors were mostly "mascots". Although there was a brief power in the middle, it finally returned to the position of "mascot" because of the failure of the war of aggression, until now.
Japanese emperors can live forever. How did he make the same royal family last for thousands of years?
Since ancient times, many countries and nations have staged the change of imperial power and throne in wars, but only one country is an exception, that is Japan. It has been more than 2,000 years since the Japanese Emperor ascended the throne, and it can indeed be called an "eternal series". I think there are mainly the following points:
First, the Japanese emperor is more of a symbol. We all know that the Queen of England is actually a symbol of power, but centuries ago, the Queen of England still had great real power. They controlled the whole country, but for some reason, their power was gradually hollowed out, but the Japanese emperor was different. Japanese emperors began to be marginalized more than 1000 years ago. After several generations of emperors' changes, each time the power was not in their hands, but in other scenes.
Second: Although Japan has experienced many regime changes, each regime has recognized the status of the Japanese emperor. This is actually a very difficult thing, and it is actually a terrible thing to be recognized by the regime of each dynasty, which also reflects the ability of the Japanese emperor from another side.
Third: the Japanese emperor has no actual power such as executive power. Although Japanese emperors have been a family for thousands of years, because they have no real power, those families who have gained political power do not care about them. On the contrary, they have existed for thousands of years, and there is nothing else to keep them alive. After all, what they want is administrative power, not empty sovereign rights.
The above three points are actually the reasons why the Japanese emperor family can last for so long. Although they have no real power, the emperor himself must have some ability to last so long.
What kind of existence is the Japanese emperor family?
The Japanese emperor is a descendant of Zhao Tian, the mythical god of creation. Orthodox history books have always claimed that emperors come down in one continuous line, that is, all emperors come from the same family, so there has never been a dynasty change in Japanese orthodox history.
But I doubt it, because the royal family has never been tested whether their Y chromosome comes from primitive people. The confusion of human relations in Japan in primitive times was extremely alarming. In ancient Japan, it was reasonable and legal for a man to marry his niece or niece. Moreover, the wife they married is not really "married" to go home as it is now, but after the relationship between their parents' home, the man has been supporting the woman, that is, marrying this woman. If a man abandons his concubine, it's actually extremely simple, that is, he doesn't go to see her or give her any property, which is considered abandonment. If this woman lives in her own home, at the same time, she associates with more than two men and receives support, and the men of that era are extremely promiscuous and scattered-there are hundreds of such wives in the hero of Genji's story-and it is impossible for men to monitor all his women themselves and ensure their chastity and singles.
Although most royal families still marry women and live together day and night, they are also influenced by this custom. The Tale of Genji also clearly records the secret love story of Emperor Suzaku and Genji's favorite concubine. Genji was exiled for having an affair with Oboro Moonlight at home, and was crushed by Oboro Moonlight's father. Although the father of Oboro Moonlight didn't see Genji himself immediately, he saw Genji's waistband on the spot, so he exposed the fact of their adultery.
So-the cemetery of the Emperor's family is undoubtedly banned, otherwise it may not be a glorious thing for Japan once the true gene pedigree of the Emperor's family is detected.
Why did the Japanese Emperor's family choose close relatives to get married?
Due to the lack of understanding of common sense, the Japanese emperor's family frequently has consanguineous marriages. For example, the story of Crown Prince Muli and his sister happened, but his ending was not very good and he finally died. The specific cause of death is unknown. There should be no such custom in Japan today, and modern medical technology is so developed that Japan should understand this common sense and should not choose to marry a close relative.
However, in history, most Japanese emperors chose to marry close relatives, which led to many children born of close relatives.
But consanguineous marriage does not necessarily give birth to deformed fetuses, and most of them are still very healthy. Therefore, many western countries do not exclude the phenomenon of consanguineous marriage in law, but we should also think that in case of terrible consequences, it will be irreparable and the devastating consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, from the perspective of prenatal and postnatal care, we must avoid consanguineous marriage.
This kind of situation rarely happens in modern Japanese royal families, but in history, Japanese royal families chose Japanese royal families mainly because they didn't understand the common sense of fertility, and the medical technology at that time, so there may be no research in this field, which led to Japanese royal families choosing close relatives to get married for many years, but it rarely happens in modern times.
The family of Japanese emperors stood firm in 2000. After the defeat of World War II, why can it be preserved today?
In the process of human development, we will find that families based on blood and other factors are common. In this social environment, some families become more powerful. However, it is difficult to have a long-term family in both eastern and western societies. In China, there is also a saying that "three generations are not rich".
However, in Japanese society, there is a family that has survived for thousands of years. Even after the defeat in World War II, this family can still survive. So far, no one can shake its position in Japan. So, what kind of secrets does this family have? Why can it be circulated for thousands of years without falling down?
The long history of the emperor's family
This magical family is the Emperor's family in Japan. So far, it is the only big family in the world that has lasted for 2000 years. According to historical records, this family began to rule Japan as early as the Japanese myth period. After the change of126th generation, the Emperor family ruled Japan for more than two thousand years. Historically, the Emperor's family has never been interrupted, which has also amazed countries all over the world.
For the emperor family, they are not only a simple continuation, but also maintain a lofty position in Japanese society. Even though Japanese society has undergone many changes, their noble status has never changed. After the Second World War, because Japan was a defeated country, it suffered heavy losses within the country, but even so, the Japanese emperor family was still preserved and enjoyed the highest treatment as always. Then, why can the Japanese emperor family maintain its inheritance for thousands of years?
The reason why the royal family has not fallen for thousands of years
First of all, the inheritance of his family is inseparable from the Japanese belief. Throughout the history of human development, we can see that some families gradually fall apart in the process of development because of the defects of human nature. After all, it is inevitable that conflicts will arise between people because of the uneven distribution of interests. So we will find that many large families will enter a chaotic stage after reaching the peak, so the collapse of the family is inevitable.
However, in the family of Japanese emperors, they deified themselves. In this way, the emperor's family integrated into the Japanese people's beliefs as a patron saint. As a result, no matter what changes Japanese society has experienced, they always think that the Emperor family is their patron saint. In this way, with a solid foundation of public support, the royal family can naturally gain a foothold.
After the defeat of World War II, the rulers of many defeated countries were punished accordingly. However, due to the special status of the Emperor's family in Japan, they were not affected by the failure of the war. After all, in the eyes of the Japanese, the role of the Emperor's family is to protect the people. If the Emperor's family suffered any negative blow, the whole Japanese society would be in crisis. In order to maintain the stability of domestic social order, the protection of the emperor's family has also become the content that Japanese rulers must attach importance to.
In addition, because the Japanese emperor family actually has no rights, it will not pose any threat to its internal rulers. In this case, the mystery of the Japanese emperor was aggravated. For outsiders, the more mysterious the family is, the more it can continue to exist. It can be said that no matter what changes Japanese society has experienced, the status of the Japanese emperor will not be shaken.

From the changing history of Japanese emperors, it can be seen that faith is very necessary for human existence. If the Japanese people did not have such a firm belief, then the Emperor's family might not have existed for so long. Under the support of this myth and belief, the royal family also broke the development restrictions of traditional families and became a big family that lasted for thousands of years.
Although the mystery of the Japanese emperor has long been revealed in modern society, due to its far-reaching influence on the Japanese, up to now, many Japanese still maintain high respect for the Japanese emperor family, which is still the only symbol of Japan's foreign affairs.
