Ishinkai

The Ishinkai was a short-lived political party in Japan.

History

The party was established in June 1917 by 43 independent members of the National Diet elected in the 1917 [Japanese general election|April elections], some of whom had previously been members of the Kōseikai. It was pro-government, and supported Prime Minister Terauchi Masatake.
In October 1917 the party merged with a group of 12 independent Diet members known as the "Kansai Group" to form the Shinseikai.
