Hey there!
This is an old term. 
It was given to people who got military commander status because of their family history, and were generally very powerful. They governed Japan, but in the 1800's this power was given to the emperor.
Hope this helps!

The title <em>Shogun</em> referred to a supreme military commander or general who governed Japan from around the 8th Century A.D. to the end of the 12th Century. They led huge armies in this Century and established governments called <em>Bakufu</em>. The word "shogun" originates from a Japanese word “<em>sho</em>," referring to "commander," and "gun,". In the 12th century, shoguns seized power from the Emperors of Japan and became the <em>de facto</em> rulers of the country.

Who decides the times places and manner for holding elections for congress
Harman [31]

Article I of the US Constitution puts this power in the hands of each State's legislature.

If you are interested in this topic, there is a fascinating development in this occurring in the Second Congressional District of Maine, which has adopted Ranked Choice Voting to determine its representatives. The loser of this year's election just sued in Federal Court to invalidate this as a way to hold an election.

Impact of the Crusades Crusades Propaganda Poster
artcher [175]

Answer:

Irrespective of its genuine strategic objectives or its complex historical consequences, the campaign in Palestine during the first world war was seen by the British government as an invaluable exercise in propaganda. Keen to capitalize on the romantic appeal of victory in the Holy Land, British propagandists repeatedly alluded to Richard Coeur de Lion's failure to win Jerusalem, thus generating the widely disseminated image of the 1917-18 Palestine campaign as the 'Last' or the 'New' Crusade. This representation, in turn, with its anti-Moslem overtones, introduced complicated problems for the British propaganda apparatus, to the point (demonstrated here through an array of official documentation, press accounts and popular works) of becoming enmeshed in a hopeless web of contradictory directives. This article argues that the ambiguity underlying the representation of the Palestine campaign in British wartime propaganda was not a coincidence, but rather an inevitable result of the complex, often incompatible, historical and religious images associated with this particular front. By exploring the cultural currency of the Crusading motif and its multiple significations, the article suggests that the almost instinctive evocation of the Crusade in this context exposed inherent faultlines and tensions which normally remained obscured within the self-assured ethos of imperial order. This applied not only to the relationship between Britain and its Moslem subjects abroad, but also to rifts within metropolitan British society, where the resonance of the Crusading theme depended on class position, thus vitiating its projected propagandistic effects even among the British soldiers themselves.
