Answer:

The correct answer is <u>B</u>: Congress declared war on Japan.

Explanation:

In 1941, Japan occupied Indochina and acquired valuable sources of material goods and materials. Their next plan was to attack East India, because of its oil sources. The US responded to this by an oil embargo that particularly hit the Japanese Navy. The Japanese government decided to occupy East India, although it brought them an armed conflict with Britain and the US.

As a further warning, the US government had moved most of its Pacific fleet from San Diego to Pearl Harbor. That was a great opportunity for Japan to gain dominance in the Pacific and conquer the rest of Asia.

On December 7, 1942, the US base (Pearl Harbor) was attacked by Japanese aircraft which damaged a large number of ships and aircraft. This attack, carried out without a formal war declaration, caused great anger among the American public and the Congress decided the USA should be involved in world events and declared war on Japan.

Though improvements such as irrigation systems and roads were developed, the famine, disease, and war due to Western Imperialism far outweighed the positive effects of industrializing. Beginning with the renaissance in Italy during the 17th century and ending with the reign of Napoleon the First, nationalism had been waiting to pop out of its paradigm shell. The spread of enlightenment ideals throughout Europe brought a liberal swing. People began to call for a more equal society, with a higher standard of living. Napoleons empire built a since of unity in Europe, causing the birth of nationalism, as in England and Germany. This since of nationalism brought forth economic competition between rivaling countries. The Industrial Revolution began in the early 1700's with the invention of the steam engine. Fueled by a recent agricultural revolution, England was the first to Industrialize. With the creation of the steam engine, large factories began springing up, attracting workers and thereby creating small industrialized towns such as Manchester and Brighton. The Agricultural Revolution helped provide a large population, filling the factories' needs for workers. But with these towns there became a serous problem of over crowding in the cities. There were many good and bad effects of the Industrial
