Best Answer

None. Hawaii (Pearl Harbor) and Alaska (the Aleutians) were not US States yet.

ANSWER

First, there was the attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii (which was not yet a state), where the Japanese bombed and destroyed many navy ships, and killed thousands of American soldiers.

Second, there was the Aleutian Islands campaign, in which Japan and the U.S. fought over the Aleutian Islands (part of Alaska, which was a state), which was an important and strategic location, not only for a nation to attack the other, but to protect the nation from the other. Of course, (after about a year), the U.S. drove the Japanese out.
