In 1939, the US cancelled its trade agreement with Japan.

The US embargoed (or outlawed the buying or selling) of Japanese iron, steel, and mechanical parts.

Japan sent troops to Indochina to pressure British and Dutch Far East possessions and US, British, and other Western nations reacted by freezing Japanese assets and blocking the buying of Japanese oil.

Japan and the US were in talks to ensure peace, but ideas put forth by the Japanese were considered to be inadequate by the US. Japan was asked by the US to evacuate China but the Japanese refused to, suggesting they would instead be preparing for a war.

The Japanese bombed/attacked British and American holdings on December 7, 1941 (including Pearl Harbor).
