Best Answer

You can find whole sections of libraries filled with books on that topic. If you can find tapes or DVDs of the television series "Victory at Sea" that gives an excellent accounting. The short answer is that in 1942 the Japanese attacked and conquered virtually all of the American and European held islands, and those that were independent, west of Hawaii in order to protect their conquests on the Asian mainland. Then between 1942 and 1945 they got the snot beaten out of them by the United States. Michael Montagne
