Japanese veterans in the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) kneel before the emperor's residence in 1936, begging for pensions. Young military officers who related to the gloomy scene felt the crisis. They toppled the government in a coup d'état because they were dissatisfied with the injustice felt by military vets. [Photo/Sina]
