Essay on The Awful Events of The World War II

The purpose about learning about the Holocaust is to spread awareness about it and make sure it never happens again. The Holocaust was one of the worst things to ever happen to mankind. The killing of Jews, disabled people, and literally everyone else who questioned the Führer. The Holocaust and how bad it was is the main idea in these two books: The Devil’s Arithmetic, by Jane Yolen. It’s about a girl who travels back in time and experiences the horrors of the Holocaust firsthand. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne, a story told from the point of view from an eight year old as he lived right next to a concentration camp. It is also shown in two Scope Magazine articles; “Betrayed by America” by Kristin Lewis, which describes the

The Second World War began in September of 1939 and was between the Allies and the Axis. It began with Germany’s unprovoked attack and conquest of Poland, and involved Britain and France from the beginning. Its origins lay in German resentment at the terms of the Treaty of Versailles (1919), the economic crisis of 1929-30, which favored the rise to power of Fascist dictators, the failure of the League of Nations to gain international acceptance for disarmament, and the policy of imperialism adopted by Germany, Italy and Japan as a means of acquiring raw materials and markets. As a part of the Treaty of Versailles, Germany had to accept full responsibility for the First World War, which then led up to the outbreak of the Second. The

We learn about the Holocaust because it is an important part of history. It teaches us about a lot of different contries and what all they have been through. It also teaches us what we lost, who we lost, and

From the Treaty of Versailles, to the rise of Hitler, and the failure of the League of Nations, there were many causes that lead up to World War II. World War I left Germany with many shortfalls, thus leaving them in the hands of the Treaty of Versailles. Rather unfair of a Treaty, this left Germany once again looking for another way out. A country resented by many had no other choice but to feel optimistic toward Adolph Hitlers empty promises… making it substantially simple for him to gain power so quick. Throw in the Great Depression, and you have a vastly unstable world, which the Germans believed Hitler would lead them out of.

Doomsday is defined as the day where the world will come to an end and people will face God on Judgment Day. Many people are fascinated by the notion that Doomsday will eventually happen soon, but there’s always a miscalculation when it comes to predicting as when the world will end. World War II is the most significant period in the twentieth century because technology, civil rights movement in the U.S, and the ability to explore outer space took a huge leap of fascination around the world. The two powerful allies emerged during World War II as to begin a Cold War with each other that defined the twentieth century. The idea that the world will come to an end by a nuclear war based on previous events from World War II that can potentially one day happen again because of historic evidence from the Cold War that wiped out two major cities in Japan, scientific evidence of a secret nuclear weapon written in India’s ancient epics, and the production of radiation smoke that builds up overtime can slowly kill humans. Zombies are dead corpse that is revived by a virus. The myth of zombies originated from Haiti in 1626 to 1800s, as an image of inhumanity where slaves were treated ruthlessly.

When the Nazis occupyed Holland, she went into hinding with her family in 1942 when her sister, Margot was called up to a concentration camp. A few other Jews has joined them later on.

On the other hand, some of the countries in the Allied powers were Great Britain, the United States, France, Australia, New Zealand, India, the Soviet Union, Canada, and Greece.

We study the holocaust for many reasons. One, is to know the horribleness that is us as humans, from the blacks in america, in the the 1935 War study, the races discriminated in the Nuremburg Race Laws, and the japenese back home. Also, another reason is to know that lives were treated so low, that it was okay, to some in the Nuremburg race trials, that it was alright in their eyes, to kill 11 million people. To me though, I believe we study the Holoucaust to learn of Hitlers mind, to never forget the stories of struggle, to think of the people involved in stopping the war. To look at how countries were affected by the war. To know the awfuless that happened to those in the camps, and to make sure a horrible thing like the Holocaust never

The vast majority of Americans supported World War II (WWII) after Pearl Harbor was bombed, recognizing a fascist threat to Western democracy. WWII was a good war. It had the ability to unite America. They united against Nazism and fascism. But even a good War has its bad times. If you look behind what you think happened at what really happened in WWII it becomes clear that the U.S. has nothing to be proud about.

A group of Jewish people flocked to Amsterdam to hide from Nazi Police. The group was two families, The Frank's and the Van Daan's, among the Frank family was a young gril named Anne Frank. Anne would keep a diary of her daily life in hiding for about a year and a half. The views she shares are like none other the world has ever seen. Anne paints a picture worth over a billion words.

“The world must know what happened, and never forget.” (World War 2) General Eisenhower reflecting upon the world war II, and acknowledging it as a pertinent event in the history of the United States of America. War is war, it is not pretty or humane, but what it is, is a diplomatic way in which to settle disputes and aggressions between countries. By analyzing these wars of the past, the people of the country can learn many things, be it mistakes made by one side, strategy from someone else or battle field etiquette. And it is through this analysis that the human race is able to further itself to not repeat the mistakes made by their ancestors. There are many lessons to be learned from looking at the

In unit three of Nation of Nations, there were many social/cultural and political issues that affected the Jews in Germany and the Japanese in America. The social/cultural groups were roused due to the conflicts arising over ethnic backgrounds, race, and class differences.

backed out without much question! It was far too casual for it to be a

One reason we study the Holocaust is for future reference. Six million Jewish men, women, and children all died because Hitler told his men to kill them. We teach people about this so we don't have someone else repeat it. Now that almost everyone knows about the Holocaust we won't have people that go along with any plan like that. It also teaches people that if they do try this they will be stopped and they will be killed or they will be in a lock down prison the rest of their life.

I sat down to talk to my great-grandma Bernice about WWII. At first I was a little worried that she wouldn’t be able to recollect something that happened that long ago. However, soon I realized that at 96 years old my grandmother still had a good memory.
