Yamamoto was a Japanese hero, since the Japanese-Russian war.

He was born in an old Samurai family, very poor after the loss of power of the Feudal Guardians of the Emprire(the Samurai’s).

He was adopted after the death of his parents by the Japanese First Minister and famous admiral Yamamoto, who gave his name to Isoroku.

He spoke perfect English since he served as naval attaché in the USA.

Yamamoto learned much about the American army and the loyalty of its citizens to serve in cases of war.

He was against the Japanese military political influence in the government, convinced that it will distance the real needs of the Japanese and especially make loose power to the Emperor. He was raised like a Samurai, and his respect for the sacred figure of the Emperor was never in dispute. They didn’t follow his line of thinking, especially, that attacking the USA will not just offend them(The Americans), but will wake up the lion that was just resting. They commanded him to attack America, and destroy the USA float in the Pacific! He succeeded but the lion woke up, first killing him in an impressive airforce mission by intercepting his airplane and defence convoy when he was visiting his troops in the Pacific Islands. After that his country was destroyed in the first and only(hopefully) military use of atomic energy against a country. Who found the burned body of Yamamoto said that he killed himself after surviving the airplane crash with his own Samurai sword!

1Million Japanese’s attended his funeral. Yamamoto: A devoted Japanese to his emperor, and people, died with a deep view of Geopolitical; and Convinced of the importance of the Division of Powers, as very necessary for the stability of a country.
