America wanted Hawaii because of its location in the Pacific Ocean. During World War II, it was the perfect place to station warships on the way to Japan.
They wanted their oil and other resources that were not on the Japan islands. They also wanted to be the rulers of the Asian world.
During World War II, Japan controlled the Northern Marianas including Guam, Cambodia, Korea, Laos, Vietnam, and part of China. They wanted to control them-and they did.
each wanted its own empire.
The Japanese called it a "sphere of influence". They wanted to totally dominate Asia and the Pacific Islands.
During WW 2 that would have been Germany and Japan.
Japan was invading countries to take land and natural resources. One of the countries that Japan wanted to take land from was China. China has iron and coal in the north.
