The Imperial House recognizes 126 monarchs, beginning with Emperor Jimmu (traditionally dated to 11 February 660 BC), and continuing up to the current emperor, Naruhito. However, scholars have agreed that there is no evidence of Jimmu's existence,[2][3] that the traditional narrative of Japan’s founding is mythical, and that Jimmu is a mythical figure.[4] Historical evidence for the first 25 emperors is mythical, but there is sufficient evidence of an unbroken hereditary line since AD 500[5] Historically verifiable Emperors of Japan start from the early 6th century with Emperor Kinmei.
İlk 25 imparatorun varlığının tarihi kanıtı yokmuş ama sonraki 1500 yıllık geçmişi kesinmiş.
1500 yıl da muazzam. Yani muazzam derken tek bir ailenin bu kadar süre hüküm sürmesi muazzam bir süreklilik, sanırım buna en yakın süre Osmanlı ve Habsburg hanedanları onlar da 600 yıl civarı hüküm sürüyor.
