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


 * I believe that Both Japan and America are equally responsilble for causing the conflict. America probably wouldn't have sent most Japanese Americans to internment camps if the Japanese didn't bomb Pearl Harbor. Therefore, the second world war aslo wouldn't have started.**

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


 * December 7, 1941, was the day that Pearl Harbor in Hawaii was bombed by the Japanese. The day after the Japanese bombed one of our largest naval bases, Peal Harbor, we (America) declared war with Japan. The American government then became paranoid and thought that all people of Japanese descent were spies for Japan. President Franklin D Roosevelt signed Execuative Order No. 9066, this allowed the government to take and hold many Japanese people in internment camps built all around the United states.**

**What were Three factors that helped cause the conflict?**

Three factors that helped cause the conflict were:

1) The Bombing of Pearl Harbor, the Japanese bombed one of the largest US Naval bases and that made us angry, very angry, and then we declared war on Japan. 2) Execuative Order No. 9066, this was the document that President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed that allowed the US government to intern all people of Japanese ancestry and keep them in internment camps. 3) Japanese Internment Camps, these camps were built all around America that Japanese people were "held in."

**Explain why one conflict was more important than the others.**

I think that the most important conflict that helped the WWII begins was the Bombing of Pearl Harbor. I think that if the Japanese planes never flew over our largest naval base and bombed us then I think that the whole war could have been avoided.

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

The conflict could have been avoided if the Japanese never bombed our naval base in Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. Yet, it was also our fault for capturing the Japanese Americans. I think that if this had never had been done then all of this never ever would have happened.
