The United States went to war with Japan during World War II, particularly in the Pacific Theater, which included various island groups such as the Philippines, Guam, and Iwo Jima. The conflict escalated after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, leading to significant battles across these islands until Japan's surrender in 1945.
1939 - 1944 in Europe; to 1945 in the Far East.
Prior to the Civil War, the U.S. expansion to the Far East was done through trade and diplomacy. There was a treaty, for example, that opened trade with Japan.

I would say the Pacific and East Asia, but others would have different names, most probably the Pacific, regarding it as a single theater of war.
The Pacific Islands, particularly the Solomon Islands, the Mariana Islands, and the Aleutian Islands, were the scenes of intense fighting during World War II. Notable battles, such as the Battle of Guadalcanal and the Battle of Iwo Jima, were pivotal in the Pacific Theater. These islands served as strategic locations for both Allied and Japanese forces, leading to significant military engagements and heavy casualties.
