One of the main reasons for this attack was that Japan needed to have a total control over the Pacific area in order to be aple to take the oil they needed for their empire by force from the Dutch East Indies and British Malaya. The mighty US pacific fleet was the only thing that stood in the way of Japan. Whatch the video to learn the whole story. Feel free to write your opinion about this in the commnets. Hope you'll enjoy the video! ----------
