House of Peers (Japan)
The was the upper house of the Imperial Diet as mandated under the Constitution of the Empire of Japan (in effect from 11 February 1889 to 3 May 1947).
==Background==
In 1869, under the new Meiji government, a Japanese peerage was created by an Imperial decree merging the former Court nobility ''(kuge)'' and former feudal lords ''(daimyo)'' into a single new aristocratic class called the ''kazoku.''
A second imperial ordinance in 1884 grouped the ''kazoku'' into five ranks equivalent to the European prince (or duke), marquis, count, viscount, and baron. Although this grouping idea was taken from the European peerage, the Japanese titles were taken from Chinese and based on the ancient feudal system in China.
Ito Hirobumi and the other Meiji leaders deliberately modeled the chamber on the British House of Lords, as a counterweight to the popularly elected House of Representatives (''Shūgiin'').
