Battle of Midway what objective was each side trying to accomplish?

Midway islands were crucial for Japan to control so they could advance further in South East Asia and Australia. The opposite was true for the Americans, Australians and other allies. They had to stop the Japanese in the Midway Islands to begin their advance toward Japan. The victory of the battle also had morale boosting effects for the Allied Nations. It was the beginning of the end for Japan. I came back to add: The Japanese were bent on destroying all the aircraft carriers in that battle too. They failed.

What major battle happened when US Navy stoped Japanese advance on Australia?

Ahem. The U.S navy did not stop an advance on Australia since the diggers managed to defeat the staging ground of the Japanese at PNG. This battle on the Kokoda Trail was fought all by Australia and effectively crushed any dreams Japan had about invading Australia. By the time America arrived the Japanese had already been turned back in the north and only isolated attacks occurred on the eastern coast. No allied nation effectively helped Australia in this time, it was done entirely by Australia. Now to answer your question, the U.S navy managed to defeat the Japanese in the Battle of the Coral Sea. However, I might point out that America was heavily asissited by the Australian navy. This battle was not an advancement towards Australia but rather to capture various islands around the mainland in order to isolate Australia from the allies.

When the US joined the allies why did the allies concentrate on defeating Hitler first?

The US joined the Allies after the Japanese attacked the US Navy at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. The Allies devoted more resources to defeating Hitler because he directly threatened the Allied homelands more than Japan did. Germany is very close to Britain and Russia, while Japan is very far away. Plus freeing France from Germany's occupation would bring another Allied country back into the war.
