Best Answer
An internment camp for Japanese-Americans.
This was done in 1940 during World War II. The Government was afraid that any Japanese /Japanese American was gonna contact Japan and let them know was the plan was for Americans therefore Manzanar was built to keep them in place 100,000 Japanese were there and live in a cabin no bigger but smaller then a master bedroom.
