From the start of the war the Americans weren't at all prepared. Ending immigration was the beginning of what to come. Americans were so scared of their Japanese counterparts, that they put all the Japanese-Americans into war camps afraid of any war crimes committed inside the country. The Americans went through mass production of ammunition than ever before. There was an avalanche of weaponry that was produced by American factories; it included 40 billion bullets; 300,000 aircrafts; 76,000 ships; 86,000 tanks; and 2.6 million machine guns.

At the beginning of the war the Axis Powers were taking control of the world. Japan was taken over the Philippines when they defeated General Douglas McArthur's army.

Japan was the only Axis Power country left. Americans set up a firebomb raid in Tokyo on March 9-10, 1945. It destroyed 250,000 buildings and killed an estimated 83,000 people. This loss was comparable of the Atomic Bombs that later came. General McArthur was on the move and freed New Guinea and the Philippines of Japanese rule.
