Hey. Well during World War 2, Japan started taking over the Pacific area. This included invading China, part of Russia, Indonesia, and a failed atempt to invad Australia. Then they started attacking America in 1941 (pearl Harbour) So America went to war with Japan. then Germany and Italy were defeated, and Japan didnt give up. It was a powerful empire and America desided to use atom bombs. They dropped two, one on Hiroshima, and one on Nagasaki. After that, the powerful Japan surrenderd
