Reigning Emperor
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "about". Script error: No such module "Nihongo". or Script error: No such module "Nihongo"., according to protocol, is the honorific title used in Japan to refer to the current Emperor of Japan instead of using their personal name (e.g. Hirohito), as is done in the West.[1][2] The only context where the personal name is used is when referring to their time before taking the throne (e.g. Prince Hirohito Script error: No such module "Lang". Hirohito shinnō).
History
Under the modern system, the Script error: No such module "Nihongo". of the emperor will always match the Script error: No such module "Nihongo".. However, this Script error: No such module "Nihongo". system was only implemented in the modern age of the Meiji Restoration.[3] In the past, the emperor's name never matched the era name, and the Script error: No such module "Nihongo". could occur any number of times. Additionally, some emperors had two gō titles, when reoccupying the throne in a process called Script error: No such module "Nihongo".. One example of this was Empress Kōgyoku, who later mounted the throne as Empress Saimei.
Attaching the title "Emperor" and his Japanese era name has formed a posthumous name, from "Emperor Meiji" to "Emperor Taishō" and "Emperor Shōwa", so doing it to refer to still living Emperor Emeritus Akihito and the Reigning Emperor Naruhito is a faux pas.[4]
