Both. Japan, German and Italy were part of the Tripartite Pact (the Axis) that opposed the Allies. Japan's long running war with China (started in 1937) merged into what we now call WW2 when Japan attacked America. Germany had annexed several central European countries avoiding war with Britain and France until she attacked Poland in 1939. After attacking the Soviet Union in 1941, Germany declared war on America right after the Japanese attack.
