That would be Hirohito, but it may be when he was a Crown Prince as opposed to Emperor.

Ah, I take it back, I got my Emperors mixed up. :oops:

That photo was of P'U Yi, the last Emperor of China.

Comrade Commissar!

That have to be Chiang Kai-shek's nationalist China. They also had some Panzer I's to fight your comrade brothers...
