47. The Emperor was a God to the Japanese
IT was a holy war - in that "God" told them to kill for the Empire of the Sun

The NAZIs were full into the deification of Hitler, and it was a jihad as well. I have a book to reccomend to you: "The Twelve Year Reich" It gives you a grounds eye view of life under the Reich.

As the war went on, the Fatherland and Hitler were synonymous, and they were whipped into religious fervor.
