 八紘一宇 / the whole world under one roof; literally, 《eight cords, one roof》 
Political slogan widely used by the Japanese government from 1940 to the end of World War II. The eight cords indicate the 《eight directions》 and thus symbolize the world... During Japan's 1941-45 conquest of 《Greater East Asia,》 the slogan hakkō ichiu seemed to imply Japanese control (ichiu) over the whole world (hakkō), rather than universal brotherhood or peace.</upd_refs>
