After the tragic Pearl Harbor bombing, that brought the United States into the second World War, Americans began mistreating the Japanese residing here. All Japanese-Americans, including citizens, were all put into Internment camps. There were hundreds and hundreds of them, in an area as small as a square mile.

What was Executive Order 9066?
United States Executive Order 9066The 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.
