In Japanese history, who were the emperors in the past dynasties, and what were their titles?

Japanese rulers used the title of "Emperor" probably during the Meiji period. (Tang Gaozong once used the title of Emperor, and was called the second saint with Empress Wu Zetian, which may affect the adoption of the title of "Emperor" in Japan. ) The official written record of the Japanese "Emperor" was first recorded around 1936 when it invaded China.

China called the Japanese Emperor the Emperor during the Tongzhi period in the late Qing Dynasty. In Japanese history, after the title of slave king appeared, there were also titles of emperor and emperor. Four generations of emperors used these two names.

After the first year of Meiji in modern times (1868), the Japanese Empire still used the title of Emperor in letters to foreign heads of state, ratification of international treaties, and declaration of war. After 1936, the word "emperor" was completely used by invaders who declared war on the world.

Today, the emperor exists as a national symbol of Japan and is also the nominal head of state. Although the Japanese constitution does not clearly stipulate his status as head of state, and the Japanese emperor after Hirohito has declared that he has completely given up the "divinity" endowed by history, most Japanese still think that the emperor represents the "country".
