Detailed Solution

The US entered Second World War when Japan bombed the US base at Pearl Harbor.
Germany's attack against Poland in 1939 marked the beginning of the Second World War. Germany, Italy, and Japan formed the Axis powers once they signed the Tripartite Pact in 1940. The USSR joined the war when Germany attacked the Soviet Union in 1941. The US resisted involvement because it didn't want to go through a financial crisis reminiscent of the aftereffects of the First World War. But when Japan occupied the French Indo-China, planned attacks on US naval bases, extended support to Hitler, and bombed the US base at Pearl Harbor, the US couldn't stay back anymore. So the US took action by dropping an atomic bomb on Hiroshima in Japan, bringing the war to an end in 1945.
