Easy. They used the threat of guns. Anyone who opposed the dictators were immediately defined as traitors and were either shot or hanged. For anyone being suspicious, the dictators imprisoned them as well.
Maintaining order in Germany and Japan was not hard at all, especially with that kind of brutal power. But towards the end of the war, right before Hitler committed suicide by shooting himself, many of the German Nazi's rebelled against Hitler's regime and even attempted to overthrow him.
They failed to take his life but they didn't fail to override the government. By the time the Allied powers had advanced to the Germant borderline, may Germans surrendered quickly. Japan, however, was a different story. Research records that before the atomic bombing, Japanese soldiers were fighting down to the last shovel.

~Why would you assume that it was difficult to do so, at least through 1944? The riots in Harlem, Detroit, Los Angeles, Mobile, Alabama, and Beaumont, Texas during WWII were more serious incidents than anything that happened in either Germany or Japan.
Patriotism and national loyalty may have had something to with the populace staying in line. Not really having any viable options may have been another reason.

That answer would be too long... I can tell you some positives about the war. Germany lost.Hitler died. Japan became an ally after. Also, women were now in the workplace more. Well I guess they didn't really have a choice... Some negatives would be the A-bomb of course. Also millions of people died...

Both countries appealed to National pride. With Patriotic and rousing speeches, the leaders convinced their countrymen that they were invincible, that they were actually liberating the citizens of those countries that they were trying to take over and that the Japanese or the Germans (as the case may be) were the greatest, most wonderful people on earth and truly deserved more land.

The same way they did before WW2, they had police forces who policed the streets. Just because the Germans had the gestapo looking out for traitors and spies didn't mean that the regular police ceased to exist, they just had to swear an oath to Hitler to continue serving as police officers the same way the judges did and everyone else.

Was there anything for them in their country to streamling through laws after the European War II? (We do not call that a World War, since it amounts to Euro Cetricism).

Fear and terror
The knock at the door by the Gestapo was very rarely an invitation to have afternoon tea with Hitler!
