Explanation:
The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise attack by the Japanese Navy at the US Navy Base Pearl Harbor in Hawaii on December 7, 1941. The attack led to US military involvement in the course of World War II on the side of the Allies. In the 1930s, Japan began to invade China without the approval of the United States and European colonial powers; when Japanese troops occupied French Indochina, America decided to impose a fuel embargo on the Japanese. Therefore, the war was inevitable, because the Japanese did not want to accept American demands to leave China.
The Pearl Harbor attack was realized without any formal declaration of war, which caused great anger among the American public. After the attack, the U.S. decided to involve in the course of World War II on December 8, 1941.
After entering World War II, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt decided to relocate and incarcerate the Japanese population in the United States. More than 125,000 Japanese citizens who were living in the United States were taken to concentration camps in the western part of the country on February 19, 1942. This event is also known as the Internment of Japanese Americans.
The surrender of Japan in August 1945 marked the end of World War II. After Manchuria was attacked by Soviet troops and after the U.S. bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japanese leadership decided to accept the Allied terms for ending the war.
