Emperor Taishō (大正天皇, Taishō-tennō, 31 August 1879 – 25 December 1926) was the 123rd emperor of Japan according to the traditional order of succession.[1] His reign started in 30 July 1912 and ended with his death in 1926.[2] He was Emperor of Japan from 1912-1926 he was also involved in World War 1 to fight against the German Empire (Empire of Germany) and was allies with the British Empire,French Third Republic,and Portuguese Empire,Australia to fight against Kaiser Wilhelm II from 1914-1918 . Emperor Taisho was also involved in the Russian Civil War in the Siberian Intervention from 1918-1922 as well the 1918-1920 Revolt Of The Czechoslovak Legion but had to withdrawal the Imperial Japanese Army from the Russian Civil War in 1922.

Emperor Taishō (meaning "Great Justice") was the name given to Yoshihito at the time of his coronation.[3] Emperors of Japan receive a new name at the time of their coronation, and people start using the new name, both to refer to the emperor himself and the name of the era during which he reigned.

Events of Taishō's life

Taishō's early life was marked by many changes in the role of emperor; and his reign was a period of consolidation.
