Before entering World War II, the U.S. practiced isolationism by avoiding entanglement in European conflicts and focusing on domestic issues. The Neutrality Acts of the 1930s were designed to prevent American involvement in foreign wars by restricting arms sales and loans to warring nations. Public sentiment largely favored staying out of international affairs, influenced by the devastation of World War I. It wasn't until the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941 that isolationism shifted dramatically, leading to active U.S. participation in the war.
