As the nations of the world are distracted by their own economic problems, two major powers in Europe and Asia, Germany and Japan, are making aggressive incursions into neighboring countries. The Germans feel that the peace treaties after World War I forced them to give up too much. Japan justifies its moves on the need for more space, given its population and lack of mineral resources. Isolationist nations, including the United States, allow Japan and Germany to annex neighboring countries with minimal interference. The Neutrality Acts passed by Congress ban the sale of arms or loans to combatants and forbid travel in war zones. Remembering Wilson's experience, FDR does not move precipitously.
