Abstract: "The primary focus of this essay is to both observe and explain why the Japanese Empire attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941 and force the United States to enter into the Second World War. This essay focuses on the period between the 1930s and pre- December 1941. The methodology used in this essay is a combination of both primary and secondary sources to provide context into understanding of Japanese decision making in relation to its relationship with the United States, the geopolitics of war, and the interservice rivalry between the Imperial Japanese Army and the Imperial Japanese Navy. This essay seeks to answer both how and why Japan, a country that was insufficient in both manpower and resources, went to war against the United States, a country that was the exact opposite of Japan in terms of its resources and manpower."
