1. At present, there are seven imperial universities (Tokyo University, Kyoto University, Osaka University, Nagoya University, Tohoku University, Kyushu University and Hokkaido University) and two overseas imperial universities (Taiwan Province Provincial University and Seoul National University). The nine imperial university groups established by Japan after the Meiji Restoration are the top in Asia until today.

2. In addition, it is interesting that people in Taiwan Province Province of China think that Taiwan Province University was built by Japanese, while Koreans don't admit that Seoul University was built by Japanese.

Before the end of World War II, if you want to be a professor at nine old imperial universities, you must be a graduate of nine old imperial universities.

So far, more than half of the Nobel Prizes in Asia have been won by established imperial universities (especially Tokyo University, Kyoto University and Nagoya University).
