History

While the United States remained neutral through the first two years of World War II, Japans unprovoked attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, dragged the United States into the conflict. The US would take on a new role in the conflict as an active leader of the Allies, both in terms of production and deployment. The US was the only nation to successfully execute a two-front war throughout the conflict, helping its European allies defeat Nazi Germany by May 1945, and leading the charge in crossing the Pacific one island at a time before deploying Atomic bombs against Imperial Japan to force its unconditional surrender in August 1945.
