"Officially"- Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, 7 December 1941."Unofficially"- The USS Panay incident: 12 December 1937.The USS Panay was an American gunboat anchored in the Yangtze river outside the Chinese city of Nanking. The Japanese, claiming they did not see the ship's American markings, bombed and sank it, causing 48 US casualties.

How did the locations of Hawaii and Midway make them important islands to Japan and the US in World War 2?
They were ideal locations for ports and aircraft refueling. Both provided excellent staging areas if a nation were to attack. Japan wanted to rule the Pacific, and tried to take Hawaii so that they would have more control. Because of differences in aircraft and nuclear war ships, Hawaii and Midway are not as strategically important as they were before, but they still allow a nation to have military influence in the Pacific.

Why did American planters lead a rebellion in Hawaii?
I believe it was Dole that started the revolt because he wanted to get rich basically as did many other planters, and Hawaii was the best place to do it for planters. Plus bad working conditions and no traveling probably were incentives too. To build upon that, in 1890, the McKinley Tariff had been implemented upon the planters which raised taxes on Hawaiian products. The planters revolted against the tariff, and discovered that the only way to overcome the tax would be to have Hawaii annexed to the union. Therefore, the planters were fighting the tax, in addition to fighting for the annexation of Hawaii in order to avoid the tax.
