C
America believed the war was a Europe problem that they didn’t want to involve themselves in. After Japan attack the U.S got involved as they had a strong sense of nationalism. A day after Pearl Harbor was attacked Congress declared war on Japan. That declaration of war got the U.S involved in the “European” war.
