ACCESSION TO THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS OF 1949 AND THEIR ADDITIONAL PROTOCOLS Japan Empire: The Empire of Japan. We use the name Japan Empire, as our original State, with no any interest of imperialism. The purpose for the term Empire is only to distinguish between the 1947 s independent Japan and the country where we were living before military occupation, called Japan too. Japan Empire has di-sovereign Entities; they are the Emperor of Japan Empire and the Imperial Japan Diet that formed and pushed the Government of Japan Empire. Japan Empire performed the Meiji Constitution which mentioned in Article 4-4 of Taiwan Relation Act (1979): Whenever the application of the laws of the United States depends upon the law that is or was applicable on Taiwan or compliance therewith, the law applied by the people on Taiwan shall be considered the applicable law for that purpose. Japan Empire was fighting with the Allied Powers since 1941, surrendering on 2 September1945 and is now still under military occupation by the Allied Powers. On 3 May 1947 under military occupation, the Emperor of Japan agreed and the Peace Constitution performed. (The Peace Constitution rose up by the General MacArthur of Allied Powers and Imperial Japan Diet, the other Sovereign Entity of Japan Empire.) At this moment, the Sovereign Entity (i.e. the Government) was independent from Japan Empire and Japan Empire began the temporary disappearance. And Japan Empire is back, The re-establishing government was formed on 20 February 2014, Taking the responsibilities to the international communities, To be a peacefully inclined and responsible government.
