3 The War in the Pacific Japan s involvement Rape of Nanking (1937) Tripartite Pact (1940) Bombing Pearl Harbor (1941) Bataan Death March (1942) Atomic Bomb August 1945 Japan joined the Allies in World War I. At the Versailles Conference, Japan wanted to put a racial equality law in the League of Nations, but European Nations refused. Japan wanted to expand its empire, so it invaded an area called Manchuria in 1931 and in 1937 it started a war with China. When the Japanese army took over Nanking, the capital of China, it committed many atrocities, raping women, murdering thousands, burning towns to the ground and looting stores and houses. The United States created an embargo, which stopped all trade with Japan. This made Japan more aggressive and angry at the United States. They began to look at British colonies in South East Asia as a way to get resources. Their desire to expand their empire led them to join with other fascist dictatorships. Japan signed their Tripartite Pact with Italy and Germany in 1940, which formalized the Axis Powers Alliance. Only the US with its navy in Hawaii could stop them from expanding and taking these territories. So Japan launched a surprise attack on the US navy in Hawaii and bombed Pearl Harbor. Japan also went after the US base in the Philippines, which was a colony of the US at the time. Japan was able to defeat the US army in the Philippines and forced the captured men to march without food and rest in harsh conditions for days, causing many soldiers to die before they even arrived at the prisoners of war camps. After Germany surrendered to the Allies on May 8, 1945, the United States asked for the unconditional surrender of Japan. When Japan refused, the U.S. dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6 and on Nagasaki on August 9. Almost 200,000 Japanese civilians were killed.
