Key Stage 3History - WW2 PacificSelf Paced

The Course

We round off the series on WW2 (The Rise of Hitler, WW2 Western Front, WW2 Easter Front) with this course on the conflict in the Pacific. The course begins in 1937 with Japanese actions in China and explores the vast Japanese expansion after the attack on Pearl Harbour. Our allied focus is largely on the Americans and Australians, with the course ending at VJ day, where Imperial Japan surrenders following intense firebombing and the first and only use of nuclear weapons in anger.
