How many Americans were killed by Japanese in World War 2?

Most sources say that the American casualties were the following: 406,000 killed (including 6,000 merchant marine civilians;) 600,000 Wounded; 5,600 American civilians where killed in this war, mostly of them Merchant Marine Sailors that died in convoy wars, and ammo accidents.It is impossible to give true stats on this because many soldiers were unaccounted for (too badly wounded and not even a dog tag could be retrieved) and, of course, there is no way one possibly could know how many innocent civilians were lost (civilians usually have a higher loss than any armed force of any country.) United States 292,000 soldiers. It should be noted that the previous figure only denotes soldiers who were confirmed to be killed in action by enemy forces. The American death total during the war including non-combat causes such as deaths due to aircraft crashes, illness, accidents, etc. generally amounts to over 400,000 men.These figures are rarely agreed upon with any of the nations involved, probably the most reliable figure is 300,000 dead and a similar number wounded, others put the figure at 550.000 dead, its amazing that there isn't an agreed upon figure, but it gives you some idea. No figures can ever be completely accurate and only include deaths of combatants. It is interesting to see how this number breaks out between the various front. Roughly into thirds, one third was killed in the Pacific campaign against Japan. Another third died in the air war over Europe against Germany. The final third died in land combat in N Africa and Europe.My almanac sources vary but roughly 292,000 American service men died in the war due to battle. These can be divided into three roughly equal parts as follows: 1) Japanese war - 100,000 deaths including the submarine campaigns, Pearl Harbor, Okinawa, air war, etc. 2) European air war - about 100,000 died bombing Germany and related areas. 3) German land war - roughly another 100,000 died fighting Germany including Normandy, Italy, Africa, Germany proper. Additionally a few hundred American civilians died - Japanese balloon bombs and losses to submarines in the Atlantic. Interestingly: There were several American non fatal injuries after the war due to Japanese holdouts who refused to surrender. These went on for years. Lastly, there are many deaths due to 'other causes' than battle....about 115,000. These would include auto accidents, disease, plane crash, suicide, murder by other soldiers, death in POW camps, execution, etc. Thus the total American deaths from all causes and sources would be about 410,000.


Which war has the most countries involved?

Depends on how you do the stats historically people might think Britain or one of the other European powers but isn't the case because all of these wars were against rebels and less inferior opponents or Britain allied itself with others to win wars. Famously Britain has had a tough time against the Russians and France as they lost a lot of these wars. If you look at who alone beat the best around then you have to look at romans, mughals who more or less beat everyone that was tough around them more so mughals because Romans never won/conquered the chinese, japanese and had tough times against the Russians whereas the mughals ruled some parts or all of these countries barring western Europe they didn't get that far but also europe was in the control of Romans at that point.


Why did seceding stats believe they had to leave the union?

The Southern States believed that they had the right to secede because the Union had violated the US Constitution. Because of this the Southern States believed that the Republican dominated Congress and the views of President elect Lincoln would continue to do so, thus the Southern States believed that they had the right to leave the Union.
