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

I think that the reason that the japanese internment happened is because of the bombing of pearl harbor. After that happened our government thought that the japanese americans on the west coast would tern around and help their government. We thought that if the west coast would get bombed then the japanese americans would help them.

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

The main reason it happened was because of pearl harbor. After that happened then we got paranoid and belived the japanese americans would help the japanese along the west coast, but i think that we were too quick to judge. So our government had japanese americans put into internment camps.

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

I think that peral harbor was one of the main reasons that the japanese internment camps was started. Also on that following day the US declared war on the japanese, and despite the governments own evidence that japanese americans posed no military threat, president Roosevelt issued 9066. Which put the japanese americans into internment camps. There were at least 110,000 people, over half were children.

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

The main reason this whole thing started was because the bombing of pearl harbor. The reason that this is the mian reason is because if the japanese hadn't done that then we would have never called war on the japanese, and even though we knew that the japanese americans did not pose a threat the president still signed the e xecutive order that said all japanese americans would be put into internment camps.

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

I think that the conflict could have been avoided by the Japanese government not bombing pearl harbor. But i still think that our government didnt have to put the Japanese americans into internment camps, because even though the Japanese bombed us we had proof that the Japanese Americans had no government threat. So even though we thought that they were going to plan an attack, we had the proof that they wouldn't.
