It was the second Global Military Conflict in Human History. The War started when Adolf Hitler, Furher of Nazi Germany, invaded Poland. Britain and France were sworn to protect this country, and so war broke out. Of course at this time, World War II wasn't World War II, it was just a little war against 4 countries. But of course, Hitler had invaded many of the bordering countries such as Austria, The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourgh, Liechtinstien, Denmark, and Italy. Hitler and his 3rd Reich had efficiently recreated a better, German Empire. Soon The Soviet Union, which had sided with Hitler before the war, had invaded Finland, and Norway. This little war, was becoming another World War. Soon countries from Asia and Africa were helping the Nazi War effort, including The Empire of Japan, and Iraq. But also countries started to help the Allied War effort as well, like The Soviet Union in 1941, and The United States of America, that same year. These countries may have been the entire reason the war was won by the allies. But still the Allies won by the skin of their teeth, for if it wasn't for the overwhelming amount of countries with the Allies, Germany would control Europe and Africa, while Japan controlled Asia and Oceania. With the help of the two Atomic Bombs known as Little Boy and Fat Man, which launched the world into the Atomic/Nuclear age. Over 62,000,000 people died on both sides in the six year conflict, many being civilians from The Soviet Union, The Peoples Republic of China, Germany, and Japan. | ||
