Empire of Japan  By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor of the Empire of Japan, Emperor Shōwa, seated on the throne occupied by the same dynasty from time immemorial, enjoin upon ye, our loyal and brave subjects:
 * Government:  Constitutional Monarchy
 * Current Leaders: 
 * Emperor: Michinomiya Hirohito
 * Prime Minister:  Oshiro Isamu
 * Demographics: 
 * Population: 1,100,000,000+
 * Economy: 
 * GDP:  175+ Billion USD
 * GDP PPP:  20,000+ USD
 * Development: 
 * War: 

We hereby declare war on the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics. We did not seek this, but it seems as if we are left no other choice. The Soviet people have shown the world how barbaric they truly are. Their acts of savagery against the Empire of Japan will not go without punishment. Our military will act with swiftness and brutal efficiency. Our public servants will do what must be done to ensure a Japanese victory. The Empire of Japan will not accept defeat.

The hallowed spirits of our imperial ancestors guarding us from above, we rely upon the loyalty and courage of our subjects in our confident expectation that the task bequeathed by our forefathers will be carried forward, and that the sources of evil will be speedily eradicated and an enduring peace immutably established in East Asia, preserving thereby the glory of our empire.

The 5th day of the 9th month of the 37th year of Shōwa.

After months of gruesome fighting, 90,000 Japanese soldiers, 245 tanks, and 400 AFVs remained. Once Japanese forces reached the Byandelger sum, they were ambushed by Soviet forces. Outnumbered, the Japanese forces retreated into the Khentii mountains. Once there, both sides clashed for hours on end. Japanese bombers which were previously heading towards Ulaanbaatar immediately re-routed to the Khentii mountains to bomb Soviet positions.
 * Operation Sleeping Giant:  Upon the Empire of Japan's declaration of war against the U.S.S.R., no time was wasted in mobilizing its military. An invasion force of 500,000 Japanese soldiers, 1,000 tanks, 2,500 AFVs, and 1,000 self-propelled artillery were sent into the Russian Far East from Manchuria. In Western China, 250,000 Japanese soldiers were sent to combat Soviet forces along the Western China/U.S.S.R. border. Kempeitai all throughout the empire hunt down and execute rebels, suspected rebels, Soviet immigrants, and anyone with close ties to the U.S.S.R.. The Imperial Japanese Navy is ordered to protect the Empire of Japan's coasts from the Soviet Navy and any potential invaders, as well as patrol the far reaches of the empire.
 * Operation Guardian Angel:  On the 10th of January, 1963, the Imperial Japanese Navy begins to conduct aerial attacks on the Assyrian and Turkish rebels from the Persian Gulf. The Empire of Japan will protect its allies at all costs.
