Answer 1

Why the United States fought on two fronts

The US had to fight both fronts during the Second World War. It was because they had to join the allied forces to fight Germany to eliminate the Fascist government. They had to fight in the second front where the holocaust and the Asia-pacific war took place because they had to stop killing the Jews (Oram, 2019).
