Japan's decentralized government, known as the 'Diet,' allowed radical nationalists to impose their plans on the nation through political maneuvering and exploitation of the weak political system. The decentralization meant that multiple political parties had influence, making it easier for nationalists to form alliances and gain support. Furthermore, the lack of strong centralized power allowed for loopholes and backroom deals, enabling radical nationalists to advance their agendas without facing significant resistance. Additionally, the decentralized system made it difficult to hold the nationalists accountable, further empowering them to impose their plans on the nation.
