Since 1950 European Union (EU) was created it has promoted peace, prosperity and values among the member nations and its neighbouring countries. EU’s influential tools, has helped transform many European states into functioning democracies and prosperous countries. EU’s membership has grown from 6 to 28 countries (Enlargement, 2014), satisfying a historic vow to integrate the continent bringing in most states of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) by peaceful ideals.EU has anticipated the enlargement as an extraordinary opportunity to endorse political strength and economic success in Europe. EU’s extension policy is open to any European state that fulfils the EU’s political and financial criteria for membership; still the political process of inclusion of new state requires a unanimous agreement from all the existing 28 member states. Europe is considered to be more flourishing and safer place due to the promotion of democracy, anti-corruption policy and the single market policy.

WWII weakened the stability of the family even further… At the end of the war,

The Second World War turned out to be even more deadly than the last merely forty years earlier. Not only were young soldiers victims to the terrors of war, there was a whole other monstrosity going on in central Europe, it would

World War II was the most widespread and deadliest war in history. It was sparked by Adolf Hitler’s invasion of Poland in 1939, and it involved more than thirty countries. It resulted in more than fifty million military and civilian deaths, and there was an estimated eighty-five million dead after the war. The war dragged on for six gruesome years until the Allies, Germany and Japan, were defeated in 1945 (“World War II” par. 1).

The effects of the war soon started spreading to the German towns and cities. Troops eventually took towns and buildings over for war and when the towns were bombed or soldiers had street shoot outs, this led to multiple civilian crossfire and multiple civilian deaths and injuries. Most Germans and even enemy troops would use civilians crossing the streets for cover and put their lives before their own. The German families were not the only people to suffer and make sacrifices. The soldiers in the fields during World War 2 had made some of the hardest sacrifices of their life.

""World War One had left Europe devastated. Those countries that had fought in it, had suffered casualties never experienced before:

The necessity for “increased utilization of female labor contradicted the image of women as childbearer and mainstay of the family,” and the German need to maintain this backwards social policy, necessitated the hesitant continuation of foreign labor. As the Nazis gained more territory, they often had procedures in place to utilize prisoners-of-war in order to fuel German wartime industry. Herbert explains that throughout the height of German dominance over the European continent, “the regime invested considerable efforts in bringing more and more mass transports of laborers to Germany” especially from more eastern states (pg. 150-151). As the war began to turn against the Germans, the horrible conditions prisoners-of-war generally lived in degraded even more. By 1943, living conditions in eastern camps had degraded to the a point where the “mere theft of a few potatoes, [meant] hungry eastern workers [were] executed in extremely brutal fashion” (pg. 168-179). Many foreign workers desperately attempted to escape the unlivable conditions of German labor camps, with 33,000 foreign workers per month bolting out of the German clutches (pg. 180-181). German dependance on foreign labor during both the rearmament and the intra-war periods, as well as their resistance to amend

World War II spanned over 5 years, 1939 to 1945. WWII was the largest spread war, including 100 million people located in almost 30 different countries. World War II was a very brutal war, many bombings took place, Hiroshima and Nagasaki killing 129,000 alone. The Holocaust also carried very high death tolls in Europe. WWII was the most violent and deadly war in world history with an estimated total 45 million to 80 million

The book, Migrations and Belongs, written by Dirk Hoerder, dealt with the experiences people faced as they migrated in voluntary and involuntary migrations. Chapter four, “Migrations during War and Depression” focused mainly on forced migrations. This chapter dealt with the fact that after World War I, people were forced out of their homes. There was a new concept that was emerging and becoming increasing popular, the concept of nationalization. People wanted their country to consist only of the people of that origin. They wanted the un-mixing of people which led to widespread involuntary mass migration. There were such places that were open to new immigrants such as the Soviet Union, but places like Germany and France for example wanted

Many people suffered during World War 2. Independence seemed to have disappeared when two strict European leaders took it apon themselves to prove that they will not be easily be defeated. But how they did it leaves marks on history that will be marked as unforgettable atrocities until the end of time. From the irrational hatred of the Jewish people to the starvation of Ukrainians, much of this will be covering the Hollocaust and Stalin's Forced Famine.

At the end of World War II, too many people were homeless. The world economy had collapsed, and much of the world’s industrial had been destroyed. That was the horrible time of all time. Besides that, for more specific examples about how bad of war is, I will analysis this article “Aftermath of War” was written by Robert L. Wieman, and it was written about his looks back on experiences when he was a bomber pilot in Allied-occupied Japan.

After all of the chaos that happened in Europe, the war left Europe in bad shape. All of their infrastructure, farms, and cities were blown up and were not in anyway near good condition. Their infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and train lines were torn up from the thousands of troops marching on them, tanks and trucks driving, and artillery hitting all of the infrastructure. With bad infrastructure, it made transportation of people, goods, and tools tough. The farms were torn apart from many troops marching on them and from bomb craters. This caused many people to starve and many food businesses to die down due to the lack of production and trade. All of the cities and buildings were destroyed to bits. All of the debris of the buildings

By the end of 2008, the European Union began experiencing rippling effects of the United States financial crisis. Several member countries, most notably on the southern end of the continent, faced high levels of debt and unemployment. Portugal, Iceland, Ireland, Greece, and Spain, derogatively referred to as “PIIGS,” required extensive economic support from the EU in order to repay government debts and bail-out private banks. Disbursal of aid in 2010 proved successful in promoting economic recovery in some countries; however, the vast majority observed only slight economic improvement which led to doubts regarding the effectiveness of the harsh austerity measures implemented. Ireland has most clearly benefited from the financial support of the European Union as the country’s unemployment rate has dropped below ten percent and is expected to witness 4.5% GDP growth in 2016. Portugal, on the other hand, shows little fiscal improvement as evident in an unemployment rate of 13% and an expected GDP growth of only 1.6% in 2016. Although both countries faced tough financial crises in 2010, Ireland has notably outperformed Portugal in resolving the situation. The weak economy in Portugal, as well as continued fiscal hardship in the remaining “PIGS” countries, threaten the preservation of the European Union as financial inequality between the members persists.

The war ended, but its effects are large. Of the total number of deaths in World War 2, approximately 85 percent were on the Allied side and 15 percent were on the Axis side. There was also an estimated 11 to 17 millions civilians died either as a direct or as an indirect result of Nazi ideological policies. In Asia and the Pacific, more than ten millions civilians, mostly Chinese were killed by the Japanese occupation forces. About The Soviet Union, they lost around 27 millions people during war, 5.7 millions people are ethic Russians and 1.3 million ethic Ukrainians died. In Germany, there were 5.3 million military losses. To resume, the population of the world decreased a lot after the war. There were 60 million people died in the war, they are twenty millions military personnels and forty millions civilians.
