 * __Sending more Radio Calls__ **


 * ADMIRAL YAMAMOTO ** RECEIVED A RADIO MESSAGE FROM JAPANESE COMINT STATIONS SAYING THAT THE U.S. HAD SENT FORCES TO THE NORTH-NORTHWEST SIDE OF MIDWAY ISLAND (Karig) and he was advised to change the battle plans. Yamamoto then decided to change the attacking place from the North side of the Island to the South leaving the United States COMPLETELY UNPREPARED SINCE ALL OF THEIR SQUADS WERE SET UP ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE ISLAND (Karig). All but one Japanese carrier and 30 planes were sent to the South side of the island. The attack on Midway only lasted 3 SHORT DAYS (Healy) and resulted in a Japanese victory; they only lost 3 destroyers, and 1 submarine. The Americans lost all but one carrier, the USS Yorktown.

After the Japanese had captured Midway Island, they heavily fortified it and started planning a second bombing on Pearl Harbor. The Japanese were successful in excluding the U.S. forces from the Pacific, causing the U.S. to have no control. After Japan captured their main supply of weapons and nuclear arms ,the U.S. was forced to surrender and withdraw their troops from Europe to save as many lives as possible. However, this also caused the U.S. to leave their allies in Europe to fend for themselves against any Japanese or Nazi invasions. After the Japanese controlled all of the pacific, they turned their forces against the Soviet Union. After a year of fighting, with many lives lost, the Japanese finally defeated the U.S.S.R by dropping a bomb on Moscow, causing them to surrender, while also killing thousands of people. WWII ended 2 years later with Germany taking over France, Spain, Poland, and a big part of the western Soviet Union, creating the Third Reich , while also joining forces with their ally, Italy, to make the majority of Europe a Nazi country. Japan took over what used to be known as China, North Korea, South Korea, and the Eastern half of the Soviet Union, to create a massive Japanese empire. Also as a result of WWII the U.S. was forced to demilitarize completely causing the U.S. to become extremely vulnerable.
 * __After the War__ **

** __Significance of the Battle of Midway__ ** About 5 years later, Japan--in their quest for being the largest empire--started to develop more sophisticated nuclear weapons based on blueprints discovered when the Japanese took over the Soviet Union in 1947. The Japanese took the blueprints that **Igor Kurchatov**, the Soviet atomic bomb designer, had created that same year (PBS). The Japanese created bomb after bomb, testing each one to dial in on the largest, most-deadly blast they could achieve while keeing it cost effective. In 1951 the Japanese created a bomb that would instantly kill anyone within a 2 mile radius, after a short period of time more people would be killed from radiation poisoning within a 4 mile radius of the bomb, and within an 8 mile radius even more people would be severely injured or killed after a short period of time from poisoning. It was a weapon of mass destruction.

**__ Japan becomes a Super Power __**

In 1960, the Japanese government asked the population of Japan to serve their Emperor and train for a war against the Nazi’s. Approximately 70,000,000 (Japanese Census in 1960, just men) Japanese men joined the Imperial Army. In June, 1961, the JIA marched through the Japanese controlled USSR to invade the Nazi country. The JIA blasted through Nazi occupied USSR and set up command posts on front lines. The Japanese had set a date to drop their long awaited bomb on the oblivious Nazi’s.  On July 4th, 1961, the JIA dropped a 1,000 pound bomb on Berlin. This bomb claimed the lives of about 1,000,000 people in Berlin. After the bomb was dropped, Berlin was forced to reunite to help build back up their nation. Because of this, the Berlin wall was never built. After the bomb was dropped, the Nazi’s Third Reich had lost all  motivation to continue and came crumbling down causing Japan to become the most powerful super-power in all of the world. However, The U.S. wasn't ready to give up just yet, they had a plan to take out Japan. During the 70s and 80s the United States continued to try and build a bomb that would make Japan feel threatened but nothing worked. In 1993, America finally made a bomb that made Japan and the rest of Europe a little worried.  Within a year, Japan came up was an atomic bomb of equal power proving that Japan was still a super-power. Up until 2011 the U.S. just dismissed the other super-powers but at the begining of 2012 the U.S. started working on a plan to become a partical SUPER-POWER again. So far the plan that the U.S. has been creating, looks promising.
