Why did Japan attack the US at Pearl Harbor?

It’s important to first consider the history between Japan and the US.

Political relations between the two countries have a complicated past. Unlike it’s Pacific neighbor, China, Japan had been successful in isolating itself from the Western world.

Japan was building an empire and by 1905, they had just that.

With industrialization comes the need for resources in the form of raw materials.

A nation can get those resources via trade or by force. Japan had plans for the entire pacific and this was a threat to the U.S. interests in the region.

U.S. embargos and reluctance of U.S. banks to fund Japanese businesses caused great tension.

Listen to Jimmy & Jean and get all the details of what happened, why it happened, and how this began World War Two for the Unites States.

there is always more to learn,
