  1. it's japan.


  2. Empires have those

  3. Japan. The current emperor is Akihito. His wife the empress Michiko. His heir is crown prince Naruhito, who's married to Masako Owada. Princess Masako is as popular in Japan as princess Diana used to be in the UK.

  4. Japan. The emperor or empress is only a figurehead nowadays. A lot like our queen. Let's hope we don't have to suffer the monarchy for much longer.

  5. Japan

    The Emperor of Japan is the country's monarch. He is the head of the Japanese Imperial Family. Under Japan's present constitution, the Emperor is the "symbol of the state and the unity of the people," and is a ceremonial figurehead in a constitutional monarchy . The Emperor of Japan is the last head of state entitled Emperor in the world.

  6. Japan and Ethiopia.

  7. Japan is the only country that still has an Emperor, although he is only a figurehead.

  8. Japan

  9. None.

    In order to have an emperor, a country has to have an empire--that is, the country must not only consist of the mother country but subservient countries as well.

    Although Japan calls its monarach an "emperor," the title is a misnomer. Japan is not an empirical nation. Thus Japan doesn't really have an emperor; it merely has a figurehead whom the country calls as such.
