 * What do you believe were the causes of the conflict?**

I believe the causes of the conflict was when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.

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

After the Bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941 European-Americans thought that the Japanese were spies so the Eropean-Americans started planning how to keep the Eropean-Americans safe. They came up with putting the Japanese-Americans in Internment Camps. The camps got overcrowded and had horrible living conditions. On Febuary 19,1941 Presedent Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Executive Order No. 9066 which lead to the signing of War Relocation Atthority on March 18, 1942 and the Civilan Exclusion Order No. 5 on April 1, 1942. There were two groups of Japanese- Americans: the Nisei which were the younger generation of Japanese and the Issei which was the older generation of Japanese. The Eropean-Americans allowed the Nisei more freedom like becoming internees. The Nisei got more freedom because they were born in America. In the end all the Japanese- Americans were released.

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

First, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Secound, Eropean- Americans were too scared to take a secound look at the situation. Third, the Canadians did the same thing the Eropean- Americans did so the Eropean-Americans might have thought that the Canadians were doing the right thing so they decided to follow.

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

When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor because the Eropean-Americans got scared of the Japanese because of that so the Eropean-Americans made the internment camps.

**How could the conflict been avoided?**

The conflict could have been avoided if the Japanese didn't bomb Pearl harbor.
