We have been primarily following the German war machine during 1941. However, this year was to radically change the face of the Second World War before it ended. This would be the fateful day of December 7, 1941 and the attack on Pearl Harbor.

But before we get to that, we catch up with Japan and what it has experienced during 1941. This context is essential for us to understand the attack on Pearl Harbor.
