The United States Executive Order 9066 was a presidential executive order issued during World War II by U.S. President on February 19 , 1942, using his authority as Commander-in-Chief to exercise war powers to send ethnic groups to internment camps.
This order authorized U.S. armed forces commanders to declare areas of the United States as military areas "from which any or all persons may be excluded." It was eventually applied to one-third of the land area of the U.S. (mostly in the West) and was used against those with "Foreign Enemy Ancestry."
The order led to the Japanese American internment in which some 110,000 ethnic Japanese people were held in internment camps for the duration of the war. Of the Japanese interned, 62 percent were Nisei (American-born, second-generation Japanese American) or Sansei (third-generation Japanese American) and the rest were Issei (Japanese immigrants and resident aliens, first-generation Japanese American).
The Secretary of defense (then Henry L. Stimson) was to assist those residents of such an area who were excluded with transport, food, shelter, and other accommodations.
Americans of Japanese ancestry were by far the most widely-affected as well as several thousand Italian and German nationals. Americans of Italian and German ancestry were targeted by these restrictions, including internment.
The executive order 9066 was created by Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942. It forced all the Japanese or those who had Japanese ancestry in America into internment camps where they were to be isolated from the rest of America's population. Over 100,000 people were uprooted from their homes solely out of fear of Japanese spies giving information to American enemies. It also interned 300 Italians and 5,000 German immigrants and naturalized citizens into internment camps, but had the most impact on the Japanese-Americans.
It ordered American citizens to be imprisoned without legal process.
The American Government was scared that the Japanese were spying on them during World War 2.

The poem "In Response to Executive Order 9066" is written from the perspective of a young teenage Japanese girl about to be forced into an internment camp. The mood is a mixture of naive cheerfulness, sorrow, and confusion.

The constitutionality of Executive Order 9066 was upheld because the provisions of other orders that required individuals of Japanese ancestry to report to assembly centers and providing for the detention of such persons in assembly and relocation centers were separate.
