Royal families have always been an essential part of a country’s tradition, culture and history. The Imperial Family of Japan is one of the oldest monarchies in the world, dating back many centuries. There has been a tradition in this family for centuries that only men can sit on the throne. Although the wife of the Emperor of Japan can become Empress, the ruling woman herself cannot become Emperor. At the same time, in many states and empires of India, the king could give his kingdom and the right to the throne to a son or other worthy person, and in some cases women could also rule. In such a situation, let us know today which woman can become the queen in Japan and how did the kings give this post in India?

Which woman can become empress in Japan?

The Imperial Family of Japan still operates according to the Imperial Family Law made in 1947. Under this law, only male royal members can become Emperor. This means that if the emperor’s child is a girl, she can never become king. But if a woman marries the emperor, she can become Empress Consort. This means that she is respected as the emperor’s wife, but does not have the right to rule. Japan has had many female emperors throughout history, such as Empress Kōken, who reigned. But all these are from old times, when modern law was not implemented. After 1947, women did not have the right to sit on the throne.

What are the rules of Imperial Family Law in Japan?

There are some main rules of royal family law. For example, only male royal members can become kings, a princess must give up her royal title if she marries a commoner, and a prince can marry a female commoner, and their child inherits the right to inherit. In recent years, questions have been raised on this law because the number of male children of the imperial family in Japan is very low. Prince Hisahito, born in 2006, is the only potential male heir to the imperial family. This has further intensified the debate that women should also be given the right to sit on the throne.

How did the kings give this post in India?

The history of India is very vast and different. In different states and empires, kings used many methods of giving rights to their kingdom and throne. In India, there were two main ways for women to become queen. In which in most cases, a woman got the right to become queen through marriage to the king. As the king’s wife, she was respected in the court and the state. In some cases, women could rule directly, especially when there were no male heirs or the woman’s own abilities were considered suitable for rule. Different procedures were adopted for this. Like Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi protected and ruled the kingdom during the death and crisis of her husband. Apart from this, Didda and many Rajput queens of Kashmir also ruled the state with their authority.
