Historically, US involvement in the affairs of Asia began during its colonization by European powers. The "opening" of Japan occurred subsequent to the visit in 1853 by an American naval squadron led by Admiral Matthew Perry. In 1877, ex-President Ulysses S. Grant made diplomatic visits to China and Japan.

Japan had been invading China since 1937 and to try to stop them the USA imposed embargoes on imports to Japan including oil and steel. The government of Japan was a mainly military government which resented US involvement and decided to destroy the local forces of the US, Britain and Holland and take the mineral wealth of the region for themselves.
