The relationship between the United States and Japan were cordial and friendly through the 18th and 19th centuries.

After the Japanese imposed the 21 Demands (1915) against China leading to outrage in the US, Britain, and China. This led to the 1924 American Immigration law that reduced the number of Japanese immigrants allowed to enter the United States leading to rising tensions.

Tensions became even more strained in the 1930's during the Sino-Japanese War in which the Japanese and China (an ally of the United States) went to war over Japan wanting to expand its empire and claim to raw goods and materials within China. The relationship also be came more hostile after Manchurian/Mukden Incident.

The United States took it upon themselves to impose harsh sanctions against the Japanese and the export and import of Japanese goods. They also cut off Japanese oil supply- wanting them to agree to leave China.

This angered the Japanese leading to the bombing of the Pacific area (including the US Naval Base of Pearl Harbor, Hawaii). This led to the beginning of World War II.

Attack on the harbor

<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

The bombing of the harbor was an onrush administrated by the Japanese Navy against the Pacific Fleet of the navy anchored at harbor base of operations, Hawaii, on Sunday morning, December 7, 1941. This attack triggered direct US involvement in war II. The attack began at around 7:38 a.m. Hawaii Standard Time.

The navy base at the harbor was attacked by a minimum of 353 warplanes, bombers and torpedo planes from the Japanese Navy, in 2 waves of attack, which were dispatched from 6 Japanese Navy aircraft carriers.

After this event, Japan only declared war on u.s and started its operation within the Greater Asia-Pacific. This attack began the involvement of u.  s. within the Pacific War.

The U.S dropped atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, in August 1945, the ultimate stage of the Second war. U.s. dropped a bomb with the approval of the UK as stated within the Quebec Treaty. the 2 bombing operations that killed a minimum of 129,000 people were the primary and last time using nuclear weapons in history.

On the day of the bombing, Hiroshima was a vital city in terms of industry and military. Several military units are based near Hiroshima, including the headquarters of the Second General Army led by marshal Shunroku Hata.

Before the atomic bombing, Hiroshima's population reached a peak of 381,000, then slowly fell thanks to the systematic evacuation administrated by the Japanese government. At the time of the attack, the population of Hiroshima was 340,000-350,000.

In contrast to Hiroshima, the majority of buildings in Nagasaki are of old Japanese style, manufactured from wood or wooden frame with wooden walls (with or without plaster), and with a clay roof. Many industries and little businesses were found out in wooden or other building materials that might not withstand an explosion. Nagasaki was allowed to develop without proper city planning; settlements were established near factories and other settlements as dense as possible throughout the economic valley of Nagasaki. On the day of the bombing, around 263,000 people were on Nagasaki, including 240,000 Japanese residents, 10,000 Korean residents, 2,500 Korean workers, 9,000 Japanese troops, 600 Chinese workers, and 400 Allied prisoners of war at the camp north of Nagasaki.
