Japanese Emperor system is unique. We could trace the imperial family tree from 3 century.
Japan had been basically paper and wood culture, it is not stone unfortunately. So from what we could know, existing oldest paper history book was authored on 720 by current imperial blood family. The history book said the family had been a ruler from the beginning of Japan. But it is not believable for me and everyone. When is the beginning?
Around 8 century, emperor family dominated mid of Japan and became influential on the other regions. Before then, there were many small countries/regions around Japan, and Emperor was also one of them. I believe this is much understandable and reasonable for me.
Anyhow, They have a clear history from 8 century as an Emperor. It is true and interesting.
Why could they survive 1300 years?
My opinion:
At the beginning, they had army and conquered Japan. After conquering, they were just a symbol. Especially year 1192, they named Samurai as General (so called Sho-Gun) and agreed for him to govern Japan. Government had changed several times, but General always named by Emperor who does not have any political power until End of samurai-age 1868. The No-Political power helped them to survive until now.
~710 : predawn (small countries / regions)
710~794: Capital was in Nara Prefecture.
794~1868 : Capital was in Kyoto Prefecture. (Note: Even Governmental location was different.) 1868~ : Tokyo prefecture
