US Occupies Japan After WWII, the US occupied Japan. America helped Japan rebuild and adopt Western ideals, such as democracy and woman suffrage. Japan disarmed and became our ally. Both starvation and disease threatened the Japanese population in the early years of Occupation after World War II. In order to help alleviate the food shortage, the United States donated large amounts of food for the Japanese population. Even so, malnutrition remained a problem.
