The War Of The World War II

Adolf Hitler was arguably one of the world’s most powerful dictators of all time. Hitler used the Jews as a scapegoat throughout his rise in power. Using antisemitism to preach hatred and blame on the Jews for all of Germany’s problems, including the loss of World War I. Hitler had gained the support of other countries to include Italy and Japan and was going to stop at nothing to ensure that the German people would reign supreme. Hitler had his Army ready for war and was confident that a victory for Germany was certain, he just needed an opportunity to strike. In this paper we will discuss the history of WWII, to include Hitler’s rise to power, world conquest and the transition of Cost Artillery to today’s Air Defense.

One major, controversial event that occurred during the WWII was the Holocaust. There has been much debate about the causes of the Holocaust, as many factors have been discussed. Therefore, this investigation will assess to what extent was Hitler the cause of the Holocaust. The four factors that will be assessed will be the widespread anti-Semitism, the role of Hitler himself, the demonizing of Jews made by the state churches and the Treaty of Versailles.

A third promise of Hitlers was that he would provide more living space. Hitler believed that Germany required more living space, or "Lebensraum", in order to survive. Instead of adding colonies to make Germany bigger, Hitler wanted to enlarge Germany within Europe. Hitler stated that the Soviet Union was run by the Jews, thus Germany had a right to take Russian land. With more living space, it was believed that this would make Germany stronger: stronger military, and built high hopes that Germany would become economically self-sufficient with the newfound wealth of food and raw material sources.

The Battle of Stalingrad was a major turning point in World War II. The Soviet Union would successfully protect one of its major industrial cities from German siege. The battle would have a lasting impact on the remainder of the war, as Germany struggled to recover from the loss. The defeat and many subsequent effects of it were due large in part to the mistakes of Germany’s leader Adolf Hitler. The statement that Hitler’s biggest mistake was how he conducted the Battle of Stalingrad is true due to his refusal to surrender despite facing dire circumstances, the lack of preparation his army had, and the effect his ego had on his decision making, even in the most crucial situations.

A-anybody. P-To show how Hitler took charge and gained dominance and conquered many countries. P-The publisher/author wanted to give information out about Hitler. Y-To tell how Hitler conquered,took charge,and gained dominance(Doc.3). The treaty of Versailles said Germany could not go into the Rhineland and Germany did. H-Sudetenland was one of many countries conquered by Hitler. A-Anyone. P-To show Hitler’s power and dominance. P-The author published this to give information on Hitler’s power. Y-To tell how much power and dominance Hitler gained(Doc.4). Hitler conquered many countries for power and to take their land back. France and Britain had been very lenient on Hitler conquering other countries because they didn’t want to go to war. “After Hitler seizure of Austria in March, I appealed to the government. I asked that Britain, together with France and other powers, guarantee the security of Crezhoslovakia. If that could have been followed, events would not have fallen into this disastrous state….in time, Crezhoslovakia will be swallowed by the Nazi regime….”(Doc.6). If Britain and France were not so lenient Hitler may have been stopped earlier. Another main reason is

World War II was partly caused by the Versailles Treaty. The Treaty infuriated Germany by taking their money, land and resources, and blaming them for World War l. All of this made Germany want to rise to power and start another World War. One of the reasons Germany was so mad about the Treaty of Versailles is it blamed Germany for the war. The Treaty stated, “...Germany accepts the responsibility of Germany and her allies for causing all loss and damage.” (Doc D) Germany did not agree that they were responsible for all the damage of the war; they thought this was extremely unfair.

"Before we 're through with them, the Japanese language will be spoken only in Hell,” said William F. Halsey. William was one of many left with hate in their hearts after the attack on Pearl Harbor. For the U.S. this was the motivation needed to take a stand against Japan and get into the war. The bombing of Pearl Harbor was a significant event that kick-started what is known as one of the greatest militaries in the world; the U.S armed forces. Japan, the culprit of the bombing of Pearl harbor, made a fatal mistake that led to the demise of the Axis powers that consisted of Germany, Japan, Italy, and Hungary. At the hands of the Allied nations which consisted of the United States, Britain, France, and Russia. World War II is known as the largest and most violent armed conflict of all time. It lasted for six years in Europe and eight years in the pacific. WWII ended in 1945, but the memory of WWII will never be forgotten. Today we focus on understanding the causes of WWII, the major battles, and the treaties that brought WWII to an end.

While Hitler wasn 't interested in conquering the mighty USSR from the start, he did for see an eventual war with her for her abundant resources16. Thus, the clash that the two countries had in 1941 was long coming, but not a surprise.

From the time of ‘Mein Kampf’ Hitler had outwardly expressed his desire to move toward Russia in his quest for ‘Lebensraum,’ however in 1939, it was beneficial for him

World War II killed more people, destroyed more property, disrupted more lives, and probably had more far-reaching consequences than any other war in history. The war, which ended in 1945, eventually involved 61 countries, claimed 50 million lives, and completely changed the geopolitical landscape. The causes of World War II can be easily traced back to many of the unsolved issues from the end of World War I and the treaties that ended it also created new political and economic problems. Forceful leaders in several countries took advantage of these problems to seize power. The desire of dictators in Germany and Italy, and Japan to conquer additional territory brought them into conflict with the democratic nations.

In Mein Kamph Hitler offered some insight into his thinking on exercise of power and in particular the important role of propaganda, his contempt of parliamentary democracy and the Weimar Republic. Hitler also wrote of the need for a national revival and the quest for living space. Hitler linked his hatred of communism with his hatred of Jews. In Hitler’s mind Russia was the centre

It was nearly unimaginable to the world when Field Marshal Friedrich Paulus surrendered his German forces to the Soviet Union on February 2, 1943. The Battle of Stalingrad, a major Second World War battle began with the German’s offensive on July 17, 1942 and ended with the German surrender on February 2, 1943. It was on August 5, 1942 that Adolf Hitler ordered an attack on the city of Stalingrad. This battle went down as one of the bloodiest battles in history, taking large tolls on both sides and most importantly marking the turning point for Hitler in the Second World War. The “master race” had taken its first major blow, proving to the world that they were not invincible. And in fact, Germany would not rise again after this truly

Causes and Consequences of Operation Barbarossa On June 22nd 1941, German forces crossed the Russian frontier and began to fight their way into Soviet territory. Operation Barbarossa, Hitler's codename for the attack on Russia, had begun. In this essay I am going to describe the causes, events and consequences of Operation Barbarossa. What happened when the 'unbeatable' Hitler and Germany met the sheer determination and patriotism of Stalin and the USSR?

The Second World War started for many reasons but the most important were: the treaty of Versailles and the negative impact it had upon Germany, the foreign policy of Adolf Hitler and what did the other countries do to stop Hitler’s actions.

World War II has been considered one of the worst things to ever occur in history. Violence, death and aggression took place in the 1930s and 1940s in certain European nations. German leader, Hitler played an important, yet a very big role during this time. With the rise and domination of fascism in Germany and Italy, the goal was to maintain peace, established by the Treaty of Versailles ended up in major disaster. World War II began with the poor economic conditions in Europe after World War I and the confrontation of clashing forms of governments and in the end it brought about positive and negative changes of the world. World War II began on September 1st, 1939 when Germany invaded Poland; this invasion led to the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor, The Great Depression, and the Holocaust.
