How Did The United States Defeat The Pacific Warfare?

On December seventh, 1941, hundreds of Japanese bombers launched an attack on the US naval base in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. They took off from Japanese aircraft-carriers which set out from Japan and remained radio silent and not detected. In this attack, the USS was badly damaged and almost lost the Pacific Fleet. Although the attack only lasted about 2 hours consisted of 2 waves of attack, over 2400 American soldiers lost their lives, more than 1000 soldiers were injured and 12 United States Navy vessels were destroyed, including the Arizona, the Oklahoma, the West Virginia, the California and so on. The American ground force did not respond quickly until the second wave of attack. Most of the soldiers in service in the Pearl Harbor were on
“In all, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor crippled or destroyed nearly 20 American ships and more than 300 airplanes. Dry docks and airfields were likewise destroyed. Most important, almost 2,500 men were killed and another 1,000 were wounded.” (History.com Staff.

In addition, the United States of America dominated the oil import of Japan. The Empire of Japan greatly depended on the oil import from the United States of America in order to sustain its intense struggle in China. After America posted economic sanctions and trade embargoes against the Empire of Japan, Japanese forces had little oil to run their ships. Plus, the United States of America had recovered from the Great Depression completely by the beginning of the World War Two so that it was powerful enough to run the military with millions of soldiers. Before the World War Two, the Gross Domestic Product of America had reached 200 billion dollars, while Japan’s Gross Domestic Product was only 28.3 billion dollars. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Empire of Japan has awakened the sleeping giant, and finally resulted in its own failure of
