Question 13 • World History

Which events increased tensions between the Japan and the United States in the late 1930s? Choose three correct answers.

Answer

B
Japan joined the Axis countries.
C
Japan barred trade with the US.
D
Japan continued its expansion into China.
E
Japan joined the Allied countries.
F
Japan attacked the US at Pearl Harbor.

Explanation

Japan’s alliance with the Axis powers, its move into French Indochina, and its continued expansion in China all heightened conflict with the United States. These actions threatened U.S. interests in Asia and led to stronger American opposition. Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941, after the late 1930s, and the United States—not Japan—restricted trade with Japan.
