Immediately after Pearl Harbor the Japanese invaded the Philippine Islands, which were defended by Americans and Filipinos. It took the Japanese about five months to completely conquer the Philippines. The Japanese also invaded Wake Island (after first being repulsed in one attempt), and overwhelmed the American garrison there, in December 1941.
The first American attack was the invasion of Guadalcanal Island, in the Solomon Islands northeast of Australia, in August 1942. Americans and British troops invaded North Africa in November, 1942.
