Perang Pasifik atau Perang Asia Pasifik, atau yang dikenal di Jepang dengan nama Perang Asia Timur Raya (Greater East Asia War (大東亜戦争code: ja is deprecated , Dai Tō-A Sensō)) adalah perang yang terjadi di Samudra Pasifik, pulau-pulaunya, dan di Asia. Konflik ini terjadi antara tahun 1937 dan 1945. Namun peristiwa-peristiwa yang lebih penting terjadi setelah 7 Desember 1941, ketika Jepang menyerang Pearl Harbor, Amerika Serikat serta koloni negara Sekutu di Asia dan Pasifik, yang membuat Amerika Serikat terlibat dalam Perang Dunia II bersama Sekutu.

Perang Tiongkok-Jepang Kedua antara Kekaisaran Jepang dan Republik Tiongkok telah berlangsung sejak 7 Juli 1937, dengan permusuhan sejak 19 September 1931, karena Jepang melancarkan invasi ke Manchuria.^[44] Namun, ini lebih diterima secara luas ^[e]^[45] bahwa Perang Pasifik itu sendiri dimulai pada 7-8 Desember 1941, ketika Jepang menginvasi Thailand dan menyerang koloni Britania di Malaya, Singapura, dan Hong Kong serta serangan mendadak Jepang ke pangkalan militer dan Angkatan Laut Amerika Serikat di Pearl Harbor, Pulau Wake, Guam, dan Filipina. ^[46] ^[47]^[48] Melindungi "Perang Pasifik": Perlindungan sebagian bawaan untuk semua AP. Pada Perang Pasifik ini, terlihat gabungan pasukan Sekutu diadu melawan Jepang, yang terakhir dibantu oleh Thailand dan pada tingkat yang lebih rendah oleh negara sesama blok Poros seperti Jerman dan Italia. Pertempuran terdiri dari beberapa pertempuran laut terbesar dalam sejarah, dan pertempuran yang sangat sengit dan kejahatan perang di seluruh Asia dan Kepulauan Pasifik, yang mengakibatkan hilangnya nyawa manusia yang sangat besar. Perang terus memuncak dengan terjadinya serangan udara di Jepang, dan pengeboman atom di Hiroshima dan Nagasaki, disertai dengan Pernyataan perang Uni Soviet terhadap Jepang, invasi Manchuria dan wilayah lain pada tanggal 9 Agustus 1945, menyebabkan Jepang mengumumkan niatnya untuk menyerah pada tanggal 15 Agustus 1945. Upacara resmi penyerahan Jepang berlangsung di atas kapal perang USS Missouri di Teluk Tokyo pada tanggal 2 September 1945. Setelah perang, Jepang kehilangan semua hak dan hak milik bekas kepemilikan di Asia dan Pasifik, dan kedaulatannya terbatas pada empat pulau utama dan pulau kecil lainnya sebagaimana ditentukan oleh Sekutu. ^[49]

Akibat Perang Pasifik[sunting | sunting sumber]

Berikut ini adalah beberapa akibat dari Perang Asia Pasifik yang terjadi antara tahun 1937 sampai 1945 ini:

Kekalahan Jepang membuatnya kehilangan wilayah jajahannya seperti Manchuria, Korea, Asia Tenggara dan daerah mandat di kepulauan Pasifik yang diberikan pada akhir Perang Dunia II.
Beberapa negara yang sebelumnya dijajah oleh negara-negara Eropa berhasil memperoleh kemerdekaan seperti Indonesia.Hal ini bisa dikatakan mengakhiri tidak hanya Indonesia namun juga berakhirnya kekuasaan kolonial Jepang atas orang kulit berwarna oleh orang kulit putih.
Kaisar Jepang kehilangan statusnya sebagai dewa. Amerika Serikat sebagai pemenang perang di Pasifik tidak ingin mengadili Hirohito, kaisar Jepang saat itu. Amerika Serikat membutuhkan daerah penyangga (buffer) untuk menahan arus pengaruh komunisme karena Rusia sudah mencapai kawasan timur Asia.
Jepang tidak diperbolehkan mempunyai angkatan perang, kecuali pasukan pembela diri.

Penjelasan[sunting | sunting sumber]

^ Fighting an undeclared war against Japan since 7 July 1937, declared war 9 December 1941.^[1]
^ "For fifty-three months, beginning in July 1937, China stood alone, single-handedly fighting an undeclared war against Japan. On 9 December 1941, after Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, China finally declared war against Japan. What had been for so long a war between two countries now became part of a much wider Pacific conflict."^[1]
^ Until April 1945
