History

East San Jose was also the name of a small former city that sat to the east of San Jose, which was annexed by the City of San Jose in 1911.^{[citation needed]}

Before World War II, East San Jose was a small section of San Jose located on the east banks of the Guadalupe River and west of today's U.S. Highway 101. After World War II, when cities all over California started to face massive suburban development, new housing developments were constructed all over the Santa Clara Valley. The housing developments that were built east of downtown were at first ethnically mixed and included whites, Chinese, African Americans, and Mexican Americans.^{[citation needed]} In the 1970s and 1980s, the region became mainly populated by Mexican Americans as Hispanic immigrants moved into the area. East San Jose is now considered a large region of San Jose that includes many smaller areas.^{[citation needed]} Combatants Allied powers: China France Great Britain Soviet Union United States and others Axis powers: Germany Italy Japan and others Commanders Chiang Kai-shek Charles de Gaulle Winston Churchill Joseph Stalin Franklin Roosevelt Adolf Hitler Benito Mussolini Hideki TÅjÅ Casualties Military dead: 17,000,000 Civilian dead: 33,000...
