Why did Japan Attack Pearl Harbor

Many people wonder why countries invade each other.Japan bombed Pearl Harbor because Japan’s plan for a new world order, U.S oil Embargo and because Japan had attacked and colonized parts of China, Korea, and South East Asia

First, On December 7 1941 Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and everyone questions as to why. Well i believe Japan attack Pearl Harbor because Japan had plans for a new world order. An old order (Europe and America) controlled by China, British and Dutched is now crumbling. So that gives other country an advantage to start a new order.
