It was an era of assassinations, disasters, and rising militarism. From the shocking assassination of Prime Minister Hara Takashi at Tokyo Station to the devastating Great Kanto Earthquake that gave rise to ultra-nationalist movements, Japan’s path through the TaishĹŤ and early ShĹŤwa periods was anything but stable.
