America's impact into WWII was agianst Germany more imediatly. It's a little known fact that three days after Japan bombed Pear Harbour. Germany declaired war on America in hopes that Japan would look favourably upon that and attack Russia. Japan never had plans to invade Russia. After a Russian spy found out that information. Russia pulled the armies protecting from a possible Japanese attack to fight the Germans. Although even without America's entry into the war Germany would have lost although it would have taken longer. So to sum it up. America's impact was to bring the war to and end much quicker than if they didn't enter. Not to mention that Japan would have been able to run unmolested in the Pacific with no real threat to them. Japan would have been able to take whatever they wanted withour America entering the war.

to help the allies take back their land from the axis

I was looking for the same answers. The US didn't because siding with great Britain propelled the us into the lone super power. This based on the allies making the us dollar the world reserve currency, giving us the power. GB needed us bc they were bankrupted and would've lost. I can't explain the politics in which the us favors the axis powers there probably be the 4 major powers( The US, German, Italian, and Japanese empires) pretty much ruling world like the US and EU would with Russia and China

Both in World War 1 and 2 the Native Americans helped with language codes and fighting in the war. They were proud Americans who fought well for their country. They were not rewarded enough until late in life. They received medals at the time of war but most did not get them until they were advanced in age. They did not benefit from the war as far as economics and education went. Some did use the GI bill but most lived an reservations where they could not totally take advantage of all of the GI bill's benefits. Some were motivated to leave the reservation and improve themselves. But, they did get the shaft as the black people in the 40s, 50s and 60s did.

Spam and some more Spam. The Americans were able to get meat easier than the Brits were able to get meat because the country was a very large meat producer.
