During World War II, the causes of the Battle of Midway were two in number. First, on the Japanese side, the intent was to seize Midway Island as a forward-base that would serve both offensive and defensive capabilities. Second, on the American side, the intent was to prevent this seizure while also dealing the Japanese navy a decisive defeat.
