Here's a quick History:
Japan helped greatly in WWI. The Japanese seized Germany's territories in the Pacific.
However once the Treaty of Versailles was made, at least two countries were dissatisfied: Italy and Japan.
Japan was bombed by the USA then Japan attacked Pearl Harbor.
Every Japanese American was put into Internment Camps in the middle of know where, b/c of the paronoia that the Japanese might commit treason.
A couple of years later Hiroshima and Nagaski were a-bombed.
It sounds to me like the US governmeant was eager to try out a new toy.
Peace Treaties, Talks.......The USA just had to show Stalin that they were powerful as well and they were a force not to be reckoned with.
********PLEASE DO NOT REFER TO THE JAPANESE PEOPLE AS "JAPS". THANK YOU!
