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

I think that the japanesse are the most responsible for the jappanesse interment camps. If they hadn't bombed the Pearl Harbor none of the internment camps or evacuations would have happened. But i do think that the United States over reacted.

**What is the relevant background information (i.e. who, what, when, where)?** Well when President Rosevelt signed the executive order 9066 was when the exacutaion signs went up. All of the jappanesse americans were sent to interment camps because the jappanesse americans were the ones who bombed Pearl Harborand they believed that they were spy's. After being kept in the internment camps being poorly treated and getting all of there money taken they were given 25 dollars and let free.

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

3 factors that helped cause the conflict were:
 * the bombing of pearl harbor
 * the politics making up stories of about the japanesse
 * the USA over reacting by puting the jappanesse into internment camps

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

The more important factor was the media making up silly stories that are not true at all. The Jappanesse americans were and always have been equal to us. the media made it much more dramatic then nesessary.

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

Well, if the japanese didnt bomb Pearl Harbor then the United States wouldnt of had to do what they did to the other japanese americans. But i do think that the United States definatly over reacted to the situation. We could have definatly treated them better while they were in the internment camps and given better health care.


 * What sources of information have you used? **

The book..."Washington... A State Of Contrasts' and the speakers that came to talk to us.
