Don't believe the first person! The real answer is Japanese who lived in America. There are 2 types of Japanese-Americans; Nisei, and Issei. Issei are Japanese citizens who immigrated to the US, while the Nisei are Japanese who were born into the US. J3LLYF1SH NEVER LIES!

Wee website: Japanese-American internment camps.
We were at war with Japan and thought that they may be spying on the US.The Japanese Americans were sent to the relocation camps because the Americans suspected that there were spies in that particular group.
The Japanese were sent to Yellow "Perlin" and that came the camp in the U.S.

22,000 Candian Japanese were interned in camps in Canada. It is tragic. They were recompensed later.
I believe sadly they were all sent to internment camps !
Japanese Americans had to be forced out from their homes, cities and businesses and sent to relocation camps.
They should not have sent the Japanese Americans to internment camps because more than 60% of them were regular US. citizens and the US government broke the 4th and the 14th amendment of constitution.
During World War II, anti-Japanese sentiment was high in the United States. Many Americans feared that these Japanese-Americans were spies for Japan. Everyone was afraid after the Japanese strike on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Most of the population believed that the Japanese-Americans could send inside information to the Japanese and allow for another attack on United States soil. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 to sent the Japanese to the camps. However, the Japanese weren't the only ones to be sent to Internment Camps by the United States. Some German-Americans and Italian-Americans were also sent to camps.
