Empire of Japan

The Empire of Japan, also sometimes known as the Later Daigo Dynasty, was a large empire located mostly within Eastern Asia. While it was based in Japan, most of its territory was outside of it. This included the entirety of China, Mongolia, the Far East of Siberia, Indochina, the eastern half of India, much of the Malay archipelago, and most of the Pacific islands. It was ruled by the Daigo dynasty, who previously ruled over Japan from the overthrow of the Spottins to the Finnish conquest. It was the largest Japanese nation in history, surpassing Celestia, the Colonials and Daigo in terms of total land area. The nation was officially established as a result of a rebellion against the syndicalists in 308AD, although it would not be ruled by the Daigo dynasty until 321, when Ichiro Daigo overthrew the previous emperor. Over the next thirty years, the empire reached its maximum extent. 
Alongside Persia, Libya and America, it was one of the four largest empires of the mid-fourth century. It also partook in a cold war against the Commonwealth of Australia, although they were temporarily allied to fight against Bharat. After a series of rebellions in its mainland Asian territories, the empire would pull from everything but the Japanese Home Islands, leading to massive uprisings and the beginning of a long warlord era in Japan. This era would eventually end after the islands were reunited by Kamakura.
