That sounds to me like a homework question for which you are supposed to do research to find the answer. The short answer is that Japan attacked the United States because we were the only power in the Pacific both willng and able to oppose their plans for conquest. We had just placed an embargo on shipments of scrap iron and other vital raw materials to them. Without raw materials they would be unable to supply their military. Thus they had to try to knock us out of the way so they could grab as much of East Asia, and its resources, as they could. Michael Montagne

Why were the reforms by the progressives unsuccessful early on?

The reforms introduced by the progressives were unsuccessful early on due to structural and institutional barriers. Powerful industrialists and politicians resisted the reforms to protect their own interests, and corrupt practices hindered the implementation of these reforms. Additionally, the Supreme Court often struck down progressive legislation, arguing that it violated constitutional rights or exceeded the government's regulatory authority. These factors limited the effectiveness of the reform efforts in the early stages.
