@cnn: Japan’s ruling party just secured a historic election victory, powered in large part by Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s popularity. Voters frustrated with recent centrist leadership turned to her more clearly defined conservatism, according to experts CNN has spoken to. CNN’s Hanako Montgomery explains what Takaichi and the Liberal Democratic Party’s election victory mean to conservatism in Japan and to the rest of the world. #cnn #news #japan #takaichi
People are shocked that Japan is conservative, they are one of the most conservative country in the world.

Single surname system though she herself kept her maiden name in politics. Then when she remarried her husband after divorcing him she forced him to take her last name. Despite the fact that he had children with his family name already.
