But if we had declared war on Japan in 1936, how much of the world would have followed us? The British Empire only began to re-arm half-heartedly in 1936 having idealistically and under American pressure scrapped most of its military capability in the 1920s. We probably couldn't have won a war against Japan, and with the only obvious non-fascist superpower engaged in a futile war in China, there would have been nothing to stop Hitler invading eastern Europe.
