Prior to WWII, the U.S. was undergoing the Great Depression (as was most of the world). As a result, the U.S. favored a policy of noninvolvement in the events that were occurring in Europe. In the U.S., the majority of the populace was economically disadvantaged, struggling for jobs, and war weary. Disillusioned with the results of WWI, the U.S. saw a repeat of the same situation possibly recurring in 1939. Americans wanted to avoid becoming entagled in what they saw as the perpetual quarrels of the European nations. These are some of the factors that contributed to Americans wanting to stay neutral in the face of the Axis aggression in Europe and the Pacific prior to our entering the war after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
