World War II,[4][5] also known as the Second World War[3] and the Great Patriotic War,[1][Note 1] was a conflict on Earth.[3]
War
Details
John Forge's family had members fight in World War II.[6] During the war, the British cracked a German encryption scheme.[7] Isoroku Yamamoto crippled the US Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor.[8] Also during the war, France created the Maginot Line.[4] One of the bloodiest battles in the war was the Battle of Stalingrad.[3]
End of the war
The war came to a close with the first usage of human Nuclear weapons at Nagasaki and Hiroshima.[2] The bomb at Hiroshima left a domed structure still standing.[9]
Aftermath
Shortly after the war
With the war's close in 1945, people danced in the streets and climbed lampposts to hoist flags, which were all recorded.[1][Note 1]
Following the Second World War, war photography was commonplace.[10]
Distant affects of the war
Some in the 26th-century confused World War II with other wars, like the Hundred Years War, and the Thirty Years War.[7] World War II is taught in Russian schools in the 26th-century.[5] The attack on Pearl Harbor was compared to the 26th-century Fall of Reach by Chief Petty Officer McRobb.[11] France's Maginot Line became idiomatically associated with a Forerunner defensive strategy through Forerunner translation software, after this strategy was discovered by humans.[4]
