==Premiership (1924)== {{seealso|Kiyoura Cabinet}} [[File:Prime Minister Kiyoura Keigo photograph.jpg|left|thumb|Kiyoura Keigo during his premiership]] Kiyoura accepted a second imperial order in 1924 following the [[Toranomon Incident]], and became [[Prime Minister of Japan]]. However, his cabinet was formed at a time when non-partisan, aristocratic cabinets were falling out of favor, and the [[Diet of Japan|Diet]]'s [[House of Representatives (Japan)|lower house]] held up most of his initiatives for all six months of his administration. Perhaps the most important event during his term as prime minister was the royal wedding of Crown Prince [[Hirohito]] (the future Emperor Shōwa) with Nagako Kuniyoshi (the future [[Empress Kōjun]]) on 26 January 1924. In 1924, he dissolved the [[House of Representatives (Japan)|Lower House]] of the [[Diet of Japan]] when faced with the three party coalition of the ''[[Kenseikai]]'', ''[[Rikken Seiyūkai]]'' and ''[[Kakushin Club]]'' which had formed a majority in Diet of more than 150 seats. As a result of his massive rout in the subsequent general election, his cabinet resigned en masse.
