What Wikipedia says

During World War II, about 120,000 people of Japanese descent were forcibly relocated and incarcerated in 10 concentration camps in the United States, operated by the War Relocation Authority (WRA), mostly in the western interior of the country. About two-thirds were U.S. citizens.
