Just like Japan, they saw the war as a way to conquer more land.
Many places; hence WORLD war. Especially Europe and Japan area... none in the North America/USA area except Hawaii which is way in the Pacific Ocean.
China was on the ally side of the way while Japan was on the axis side. Since the allies won, China is credited with victory as well, and Japan is credited with defeat.
Japan was the only country that attacked China. Japan's former leader chose to be on the bad guy side during the war. Japan also attacked and killed Americans in the state of Hawaii and America attacked Japan back in a huge way.
There is still radiation all the way back from World War 2. Id also say the pollution.
japan saw the end's of WW1 as a new way to expand its pacific territory's
America wanted Hawaii because of its location in the Pacific Ocean. During World War II, it was the perfect place to station warships on the way to Japan.
probably way better and with less terrorists known as democrats and republicans
The world needed the war to end so in a way they were satisfied with the decision.
The US needed the Japanese Airfields located on the island.It was basically half way between Hawaii and japan. it was controlled by japan and America wanted it so they could bomb the island of japan.
They pushed the Axis powers (Germany, Japan, Italy) all the way back to their capitals and occupied their countries.
The atomic age was born in the US with the Manhatton project; but matured in Japan, with it's use on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The cold war is the result of nuclear weapons. Japan is the birthplace of the cold war.
