I don't know about the US but have ever heard that Japanese antique sword buyers often visit Australia to discover masterpieces as they are released for very cheap price by the veterans' famlies.
The Lower House of the National Diet of Japan, then and now.
If there is a difference between them, democracy was halted from 1940 to 1945 for the war.
The statue is Masujiro Ohmura (1825-1869) - the founder of IJA.
