The Pacific States form one of the nine geographic divisions within the United States that are officially recognized by that country's census bureau. There are five states in this division — Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington — and, as its name suggests, they all have coastlines on the Pacific Ocean (and are the only American states that border that ocean). The Pacific States division is one of two divisions that are located within the United States Census Bureau's Western region; the other Western division is the Mountain States. Despite being slotted into the same region by the Census Bureau, the Pacific and Mountain divisions are vastly different from one another in many vital respects, most notably in the arena of politics; while nearly all of the Mountain states are regarded as being conservative "red states", four out of five of the Pacific states (all except Alaska) are clearly counted among the liberal "blue states." Indeed, the other division with which residents of the Pacific States are seen as most closely self-identifying is New England, where many of the Pacific States' seminal settlers actually hailed from; Portland, Oregon was named after Portland, Maine, and according to the 1980s-era bestseller Dress For Success, businessmen in San Francisco display virtually identical sartorial preferences as their counterparts in Boston.

Asked by squidcheese - Sun Apr 26 21:22:21 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. To say there was a battle plan kind of ignores the seat-of-the-pants desperation of the first few months, as the U.S. tried to recover from Pearl Harbor. Later in the war, sure, but those first few months were pretty wild. Read about Pearl Harbour, the battles of Midway, the Coral Sea, the Phillipines, Okinawa, Iwo Jima, - also about Bull Halsey, Douglas MacArthur, Chester Nimitz, Isoroku Yamamoto. In general terms, once the war shifted to the American's favor after Midway, the American plan was to push the Japanese back to their home islands, island by island, until they could bring the full force of the U.S. air power to bear on the main islands of Japan.
