The Japanese government is a constitutional monarchy, the emperor is very limited; he's only the head of state on diplomatic occasions. The current Emperor's name is Akihito. Power is run by the minister of Japan who is chosen by the Emperor and other members of the Diet who are elected, the Diet consists of house of representatives and Councillors. Japanese government was originally influenced by Chinese law but in the late nineteenth century the judicial system has been based on the civil law of Europe.
