 * What is your //general// belief about who or what is most responsible for causing the conflict?**

I believe that both the Japanese and The U.S.A were both the causers of the internment. The reason for the Japanese is that they bombed Pearl Harbor and they should have waited to find out that if was bad or not. The U.S.A over reacted in a way where they had started to keep the Japanese in internments. For many years thinking that they were spies when none or not very many actually were spies.

**What is the relevant background information (i.e. who, what, when, where)?**

Some background information, the Japanese stared all of the internments with one big mistake. When they bombed Pearl Harbor it made the Americans mad and we retaliated. For many years the Japanese were put into internments because we suspected they were all spies for Japan.

**What were 3 factors that helped cause the conflict (politics, economics, geography, history)?**

The war that was going on made both America and Japan very antsy. So the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor as a state war. So we got back at them by keeping them in internments. In the internements they was horrible conditions and was 48 cents per internee to get a meal. Also 2/3 of the Japanese americans were held internments. One way they could get out of internments was to enlist in the U.S army. For several years that is how they have been held and were treated. When it was really the military and they were thought to be spies.

**Explain why one factor is more important than the others.**

The bombing of Pearl Harbor was probably the biggest problem that happened to cause the Japanese Internment. Also the internments were a big problem and were not helping the war or the situation.

**How could the conflict have been avoided?**

There are many ways that this could have been avoided, one which is not to bomb Pearl Harbor. We also reacted abnormally and we kept them that way for a long time and that was a bad desision. With the conflicts that had happened there was many bad desisions that happen and could have been avoided.
