The whole world was at war in 1939-1945 because of
germany wanting to get revenge from losing the first world war.On the first of September 1939 over a million nazis invaded Poland,Poland had two major allies being France and Great Britan who already had problems with Germany becasue of them taking over Czechoslovakia.Great britan told Germany to back off Poland by the 3rd of September but Germany did not listen so Great Britan and France declared war on Germany.Germany also had allies in Japan and Itay they were called the Axis powers while G.B. and france were called the Allies. The leader of Great britan at the time was Winston Churchill he was in charge of the navy at the start of the war.On the 10th of May in 1940 Winston became the British Prime Minister after the resignation of Neville Chamberlain.Winston made the british people have better morale and encouraged people with his powerful speeches we shall go on to the end,he said ,we shall never surrender.Adolf Hitler was the leader of the nazi party
and ruled Germany with a iron fist.He blamed the jewish
people for the loss of the first world war so he started to kill all the people he saw as being inferior,including disabled people and relogions he didnt like.This mass killing of jewish people and others is called the Holocaust. The U.S was not really in the war they were just providing weapons for the Allies but Axis powers didnt like this so Japan attacked.On December 7,1941 just before 8 a.m. hundreds of Japanese fighter planes attacked Pearl Harbor near Honolulu,Hawaii.Nearly 2,000 American soldiers and sailors died in the attack.Japan destroyed 20 American naval vessels and 8 battleships and more than 300 airplanes.The day after the attack U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared war on Japan.Germany and Italy also declared war,America finally joined World war II.

United States
and Great Britain used a whole bunch of military
equipment such as planes boats battleships and foot soldiers. Germany was ready for this is how they had barricades on the shores of Normandy and doctors with machine guns inside and anti-aircraft machine guns. the United States would not quit until they took over Normandy so they kept fighting and fighting until they took it over. another important date in World War II was the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Germany has been defeated and it early was taken care of so the last part of the Axis powers was Japan and then fight with the samurai cold which said they will never surrender. United States have to think of a way to get rid of Japan fast and easy. they came up with the atomic bomb which cost them two billion dollars to create, they would try of these bombs in Claire's basis like Nevada or California where nobody will get injured or be in the blast radius. on August 1945 United States drop the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.Barnes killer over 80,000 people instantly in 40,000 people were wounded or injured due to the bar on people say at this bomb ass ended the war and that's some people say that the bomb Was overkill because I still affects people in Japan to this day people suffer from from mental illness or diseases and other bad stuff.
