in this alternate reality, what if the on Pearl Harbor never happened? This isn't that hard to accomplish in all actuality. The decision to Pearl Harbor was something that almost didn't happen in the first place, The Naval General Staff proved reluctant to go along with the raid and Yamamoto, the commander-in-chief of the navy, was eventually driven to resign to get his way. So either Yamamoto can't get his way or Emperor Hirohito, who had limited control over his military, finally asserted some command, and refuses it to happen. If the raid on Pearl Harbor doesn't happen there is still one major obstacle in Japans strike south. The Philippines. The Philippines had been under American control since the Spanish-American of 1898, and while not defended as it could be, the island had a substantial American presence that would be difficult to ignore. Ignoring the islands would mean that the shipping lanes between the oil rich lands in the south and the home islands would be threatened, and a gap would exist in Japans island defense strategy. But for this scenario, let's say that the Japanese command is willing to run the risk, and hope that the Americans won't join the until the in the south are completed. While it may seem like a logical idea. This wouldn't stop the United States from entering, it merely delays the inevitable.
