Q. The controversial Yasukuni Shrine, recently in news, is located in which of the following countries?
Answer:
Japan
Notes: Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo honors those who died serving the Emperor of Japan from 1867 to 1951. Many individuals commemorated there were convicted of war crimes by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East after World War II, including 14 Class A War Criminals for 'crimes against peace.' The shrine houses the Yushukan War Museum, criticized for its revisionist portrayal of Japan's imperial history. The Izokukai organization, associated with the shrine, shifted its focus in 1953 from promoting world peace to honoring the spirits of the war dead.
