Luo Zhenyu            Origin/Culture/Country: Chinese

Luo Zhenyu: was a Chinese classical scholar, philologist, epigrapher, antiquarian and Qing loyalist. Luo first visited Japan in 1901 to study the Japanese educational system. From 1906 onwards, he held several different government posts, mostly related to agriculture. From April 1909 to February 1912 he was president of the Imperial Agricultural College. Being a loyalist to the Qing Dynasty, he fled to Japan after the Xinhai Revolution, residing in Kyoto and doing some research on Chinese archaeology. He returned to Tianjin in China in 1919, taking part in political activities aimed at restoration of deposed Qing Emperor Puyi to the throne of China. Luo eventually rose to become one of the three main advisors and a trusted confidant of the former emperor. After the creation of the Empire of Manchukuo in March 1932, Luo accepted a post in the new government from 1933–1938, insisting on maintaining Manchukuo as a monarchy against various proposals to make it a republic. He also served as chairman of the Japan-Manchukuo Cultural Cooperation Society. However, Luo gradually became disillusioned with the heavy-handed administration of the Japanese Kwantung Army and the lack of all real authority or political power by the nominal emperor Puyi, and resigned his positions in 1938, retiring to Dalian.
