During this time the emperors had to gain political backing from powerful aristocratic families to be able to rule the country. The Heian period was considerably peaceful and was also secure from foreign aggression.…

Evidence that there was a problem is that there were 23 emperors in 50 years. Plus 13 of them were assassinated. This problem helps explain why Rome “fell” because with all those emperors different rules followed so they couldn't tell what was right from wrong.
