Tojo was going to be hung no matter what (and he deserved it) so he decided to take responsibility for other stuff that really belonged on the Emperor's and other members of the royal families' heads.
Ah, I knew about Hirohito and how he lived a very long life until the 1980s I think it was. We also got him to surrender his livelihood as being the Last Emperor of Japan. In all reality, I don’t know much about Tojo.(I never knew that he got hung by us as a penalty for the deaths inflicted on America)
It was only a few years ago(I am 21 years old so I still have a lot of catching up to do) when I heard Tojo’s name instead of Hirohito as the name to use alongside Mussolini and Hitler. I was sort of curious since I don’t think I was taught much about him in history class. It was more about Hirohito but his name possibly did come up a few times. OK, thanks for the info.
