Fan Casting Nagako(Empress Kōjun)(Japan)

Role added by nomad7 on January 13, 2025

Description of Nagako(Empress Kōjun) (Japan):

Nagako(良子女王)(b. 6 March 1903) was a member of the Imperial House of Japan, the wife of Emperor Shōwa (Hirohito). She was Empress of Japan from 1926. Princess Nagako married Crown Prince Hirohito on 26 January 1924 and became the Crown Princess of Japan. The wedding had been delayed in the aftermath of the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake and following an assassination attempt on Hirohito's life. Their marriage marked the last time a future empress was chosen from minor princely families that usually provided brides for the main line. She became the empress of Japan upon Hirohito's accession to the throne on 25 December 1926. Emperor Hirohito decided to abandon his 39 court concubines.
