In 1600, the second largest city in the world was likely Beijing, China, with a population estimated between 600,000 to 700,000 people. It was a significant political and cultural center during the Ming Dynasty. The largest city at that time was likely Edo (modern-day Tokyo), with a similar population range. Both cities played crucial roles in their respective regions and were hubs of trade and governance.

During the 1930s, the Japanese government sought to create an empire on the Asian mainland primarily to secure resources, expand its territorial influence, and assert itself as a major world power. The economic pressures from the Great Depression and Japan's need for raw materials, such as oil and rubber, drove its imperial ambitions, particularly in Manchuria and China. Additionally, nationalist sentiments and the desire to counter Western colonial powers fueled military aggression and expansionist policies, leading to conflicts like the Second Sino-Japanese War.
The Nisei were second generation Japanese Americans, born in the United States to Japanese parents. They were subject to pervasive discrimination and internment during World War II.
Not anymore, but there were in the Second World War. They were known more commonly as internment camps during those times; the term concentration camp was created by the Nazis in the 1930's.
The Japanese internment during World War II did not violate the Second Amendment, which protects the right to keep and bear arms. While the internment involved the forced relocation and incarceration of Japanese Americans, it primarily infringed upon rights protected by the First Amendment (freedom of speech and religion) and the Fifth Amendment (due process). The Second Amendment's focus on the right to bear arms was not directly implicated in the actions taken against Japanese Americans during this period.
There was a fear that Japanese/Americans, even second or third generation, would act as an internal threat to America during the second World War with Japan.
Because one it was inhumane and second it showed that the U.S was afraid
Internment Camps were camps created by the United States government to house Japanese-Americans during the Second World War. Japanese-Americans were removed from their homes and forced into camps, for the government feared some were spies for the Japanese Empire.

There are a number of interesting and disturbing factors. First, most of the Japanese-American internees were American citizens. Second, the internment was ordered by President Franklin Roosevelt, who was considered to be fairly progressive; he definitely wasn't one in this case. When the case went to the Supreme Court, the court upheld the internment. Third, there had not been any acts of sabotage or espionage by any of the internees. Fourth, the internment was only applied along the west coast of the US. There was no internment camps established in Hawaii, despite the fact that there were a great number of Japanese-Americans, and even Japanese citizens, living in Hawaii at the time. There was a unit of the US Army formed entirely from Japanese-Americans, and mostly recruited from the various internment camps. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team, Japanese-American soldiers serving under Caucasian officers, saw service in Europe and was the most highly decorated unit (for its size) in the European Theater. Members of the 442nd earned 21 Congressional Medals of Honor, and earned the nickname "Purple Heart Battalion"
