Japanese internment refers to the forced relocation and incarceration of around 120,000 Japanese Americans, mostly U.S. citizens, during World War II. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the U.S. government, driven by wartime hysteria and racial prejudice, deemed Japanese Americans a security threat. They were placed in internment camps under harsh conditions, where they lived for years until the policy was lifted in 1945. In 1988, the U.S. government formally apologized and provided reparations to surviving internees.
