Hirohito - The Kyūjō Incident

Time: Tuesday Aug 14, 1945

Place: Tokyo, Japan

Details: A faction of the army opposed to the surrender attempted a coup d'état on the evening of 14 August, prior to the broadcast. They seized the Imperial Palace (the Kyūjō incident), but the physical recording of the emperor's speech was hidden and preserved overnight. The coup was crushed by the next morning, and the speech was broadcast.
