All Gokoku Shrines popping up today are non-notable and should be allowed to time out [simple; ja] is a Shinto shrine located in Japan. It is a Gokoku Shrine, or a shrine dedicated to war dead.[a] Such shrines were made to serve to enshrine the war dead, and they were all considered "branches" of Yasukuni Shrine. They were renamed from Shokonsha in 1939.[1]
