Seigō Nakano
(12 February 1886 – 27 October 1943) was a journalist and politician in Imperial Japan, known primarily for involvement in far-right politics through leadership of the ''Tōhōkai'' ("Far East Society") party, as well as his opposition to Tōjō Hideki and eventual suicide under murky circumstances. Born in the city Fukuoka, Nakano went on to attend Waseda University for four years, writing a number of articles for the journal ''Nihon oyobi Nihonjin'' (Japan and the Japanese) before graduating in July 1909. In these and in other speeches and articles he would produce, he expressed his political views. Nakano maintained an opposition to Japan's establishment throughout his life, criticizing in turn oligarchs such as Katsura Tarō, the '' Seiyūkai'' cabinet of Baron Tanaka Giichi, and eventually Tōjō Hideki, the last of which ultimately cost him his life.

Kenseikai
The was a short-lived political party in the pre-war Empire of Japan. History The ''Kenseikai'' was founded on 10 October 1916, as a merger of the ''Rikken Dōshikai'' (led by Katō Takaaki), '' Chūseikai'' (led by Ozaki Yukio) and the '' Kōyū Club'' (a minor opposition group). Led by Katō Takaaki, the new party was united by its opposition to the policies of the ruling '' Rikken Seiyūkai'' under Prime Minister Ōkuma Shigenobu. The party was supported financially by the Mitsubishi ''zaibatsu,'' due to family ties with Katō Takaaki. Party leaders included Hamaguchi Osachi and Adachi Kenzō. The merger gave the ''Kenseikai'' a total of 198 seats in the Lower House of the Diet of Japan, thus forming a majority, and raised the expectation that Katō Takaaki would become the next Prime Minister. However, the position of Prime Minister was a direct appointment from the Emperor per advice provided by the ''genrō'', and in this case, the ''genrō'' unexpectedly nominated G ...
