Geography played a critical role in the Pacific campaign during World War II. The United States and Japan were sepa- rated by the vast Pacific Ocean. After its attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese achieved quick victories in overrunning Malaya, Burma, Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and the Western Pacific Islands. They soon threatened Australia, India, Midway, and Hawaii. THE BATAAN DEATH MARCH, 1942 The Philippines faced an invasion by the Japanese army on the day Pearl Harbor was attacked. A month later, U.S. and Filipino forces surrendered to the Japanese. The Japa- nese forced their prisoners to undertake a 60-mile march through the jungle, which became known as the Bataan Death March. These prisoners of war faced starvation, disease, exposure to the sun, and no water. About 5,000 of the Americans, almost half, died along the way. Some were bayoneted, shot, beheaded or just left to die along the side of the road. THE WAR TURNS AGAINST JAPAN In 1943, the tide began to turn against Japan. The United States regained naval superiority in the Pacific and American forces by “island-hopping” — liberating Pacific islands from Japanese control, one at a time. THE NAVAJO CODE TALKERS One group of Americans who played a key role in the Pacific campaign were the Navajo code talkers. The American military needed an undecipherable code to communicate that could not be broken by the Japanese. The Navajo language is unwritten and extremely complex. By using this language, American forces could transmit messages by telephone and radio in a code that the Japanese were unable to break. THE BATTLE OF MIDWAY The Battle of Midway was the turning point of the war in the Pacific. The Japanese were using their control of the Western Pacific to protect their home islands and vast new empire. The Japanese Pacific fleet commander had devised a plan to lure the U.S. Pacific fleet into a battle near Midway, a tiny mid-Pacific island, where he believed he could destroy them. However, the U.S. Navy could decipher Japanese secret codes and knew that a surprise attack by the Japanese fleet was at hand. American soldiers along the Bataan Death March.

Like St. John de Crevecoeur, Tocqueville noticed that Amer- ica was quite different from Europe, and he tried to identify the ways. The result was his book, Democracy in America, which was published in 1835. His book serves as a guide to measure how America has changed since it was written. It also allows us to gain some perspective on what aspects of American society have remained the same.

He looked for answers in America’s social and cultural roots as well as in its political institutions. ACTING AS AN AMATEUR HISTORIAN One of the things Tocqueville immediately observed was the absence of a hereditary nobility and the overriding concern of Americans with money. He also noted that closely related to the concept of social equality was that of popular sovereignty — in America, the common people exercised political power: “Many important observations suggest themselves upon the social condition of the Anglo-Americans; but there is one that takes precedence of all the rest. The social condition of the Americans is democratic; this was its character at the foundation of the colonies, and it is still strongly marked … [G]reat equality existed among the immigrants who settled on the shores of New England. Even the germs of aristocracy were never planted in that part of the Union….” “I know of no other country where love of money has such a grip on men’s hearts or where stronger scorn is expressed for the theory of permanent equality of property.” “I have observed that universal suffrage has been adopted in all the states of the Union; it consequently exists in communities that occupy very different positions in the social scale.
