<em>The main reason behind the Japanese attack of Pear Harbor was that Japan wanted to cripple the U.S. Navy and gain control over the Pacific.  </em>

On December 7, 1941, Japanese forces attacked Pearl Harbor U.S. naval base in Honolulu, Hawaii. More than 2,400 people died in the attack. Japanese forces damaged 20 naval ships and almost 300 airplanes. The main reason behind the Japanese attack of Pearl Harbor was that Japan wanted to cripple the U.S. Navy and gain control over the Pacific. Immediately after the attack, President Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed Congress to ask for a declaration of war on Japan. That is when the United States officially entered World War II.
