II. Cultural background

May 1941, German bombers assaulted London in what turned out to be the final heavy mission of the

Battle of Britain. More than 500 aircraft dropped highly explosive and incendiary bombs which resulted in

many fires and caused more than 3,000 casualties. But the Battle of Britain was lost, and with it Germany’s

chance of winning the war had gone.

26 July 1941, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered all Japanese assets frozen. He also ordered the

suspension of all trade with Japan and laid an embargo on oil. All this gave rise to the attack on American

naval forces at Pearl Harbor by Japanese on 7 December 1941.
