Answer:
The United States' and Japan's approach to the Great Depression were different because Japan attempted to solve it by expanding territory and the U.S.'s approach was to create more jobs.
Explanation:
The reason they took different approaches was because they had different problems. Japan is a small island with limited resources, and trading became very difficult when countries raised their tariffs. To counteract this, Japan wanted to take land that was plentiful in natural resources. This solution wouldn’t have helped the U.S. though, because the U.S. was not low on resources, but many citizens were jobless so the country created jobs in an attempt to neutralize this.
(Tariffs are a tax that must be paid for particular imports or exports when trading).
