In a narrow sense, "emperor system" refers to the monarchy or the emperor-centered system in the Constitution of the Empire of Japan. In a broad sense, "Emperor system" includes even the Symbolic Emperor System.
Under Empire of Japan's political system, which called for the legitimacy of political domination by Tennō rule, the term "Emperor system" was officially prohibited; it became an academic term when free discussions on the term "Emperor system" were held in postwar Japan and research papers using the term "Emperor system" were published.
