The Manzanar Children's Village was an orphanage for children of Japanese ancestry incarcerated during World War II as a result of Executive Order 9066, under which President Franklin Roosevelt authorized the forced removal of Japanese Americans from the West Coast of the United States. Contained within the Manzanar concentration camp in Owens Valley, California, it held a total of 101 orphans from June 1942 to September 1945. ==Incarceration of Japanese Americans==
(詳細はPearl Harbor, on February 19, 1942, Executive Order 9066 authorized military commanders to designate military zones from which "any or all persons may be excluded." On March 2, 1942, General John L. DeWitt and the Western Defense Command issued a public proclamation that established Military Areas 1 and 2, encompassing all of California and much of Washington, Oregon and Arizona. Although the executive order had not specified who was to be excluded, DeWitt's proclamation made it clear that Japanese American residents would be required to vacate the newly created exclusion zone, and Public Law 503, passed by Congress on March 20, 1942 and signed into law by the President the following day, created penalties of up to $5,000 and one year in prison for violating the military restrictions.〔Brian Niiya. ("Public Law 503" ) ''Densho Encyclopedia'' (accessed 22 May 2014).〕 Approximately 5,000 Japanese Americans moved through a short-lived "voluntary evacuation" program — many of them into what they were assured would remain a "Free Zone" in eastern California but would later fall within the scope of exclusion — however, most remained in their homes while they waited for further information.〔Brian Niiya. ("Voluntary evacuation," ) ''Densho Encyclopedia'' (accessed 4 Apr 2014).〕 The first civilian exclusion order was issued on March 24, 1942, and over the next five months more than 110,000 Japanese Americans were transported from the West Coast to isolated inland camps.
