Okay so this one is ultra cultural. They still openly "celebrate" deified generals who tried to overthrow the imperial family then cursed the capital after their death to be hit by a plague, natural disasters, and famine, over a thousand years ago. With people from the imperial family dying from it. There's several people like that who literally have an active cult today, to alleviate their anger. It's not about being happy with what they did, it's about appeasing everyone who wielded power and caused fear even after their death, because they have a culture of vengeful ghosts and Chinese Buddhism gave them the idea that people with power in the "real world" court still maintained the same power in the court of the underworld and could cause natural disasters and plagues. That said, I don't know how many of those cults are still observed by the Prime Minister.
