Ww2 Analysis

After WW2, Britain’s domestic life was in upheaval and most people wanted peace and to return to normal, the war also brought on an urge to broaden Britain’s wealth. This meant the new Conservative government was expected to

At the outbreak of the Second World War, Australia as a nation was still very closely tied to the British. Therefore when war was finally declared after a period of appeasement, Australia’s Prime Minister Robert Menzies of the United Australia Party, made his famous Melancholy Duty speech, committing Australia to the war effort. However as the war waged on, and when Winston Churchill’s promised support was most needed, they weren’t there. It was America that showed up to help save our proud nation, leading to disillusionment in Britain’s supposed benevolent power and a turn to the USA for help.

British had been driven off the continent. By July 1940, Germany dominated nearly all of

During the course of the Second World War, Canada evolved into a powerful, resourceful nation that was needed by the Allies. Canada contributed significantly to the Allied war effort during World War II where they fought on land, water and air and assisted indirectly from the home front. On land, they fought in numerous battles and campaigns such as D-Day, Hong Kong, and the Italian campaign. However, they were also strong and resourceful when it came to air and naval forces in battle. But even outside of battle, Canada was still able to make a contribution through its civilians.

British advantages include the fact that England had a large army and navy, unlike the Americans. The British army was known, at the time, as the best in the world. They could also pay for Hessian mercenaries to fight with their army. The British army wasn’t fully supplied while across the Atlantic in the warzone. Supplies were always overlooked, yet the most important aspect of warfare.

World War II was a period that changed many countries forever after the war ended: Germany was split in two, an iron curtain fell across the continent shortly after the war’s end, and acres of land and millions of people were destroyed and lost in the war. However, many changes happened during the war as well, and this is easily observed in Britain during the beginning of the war, when the country was constantly being bombed and attacked during the Battle of Britain. The Battle of Britain forced British citizens to change their mindset as a society and as a functioning economy in a split second, regardless of whether or not the people were ready for it.

American citizens provided fuel to the war effort whilst the government engaged in propaganda campaigns to raise money and troops. This agrees with David W Koeller’s view that “The high infiltration of Pro-British propaganda made it impossible for the US to remain neutral and not engage in the war.” All in all, the American people helped provide the foundations to make the world safe for democracy and ultimately aided the allies in winning the war.

As we all know, the Second World War left a huge impact on the world, and populations that suffered in the past are still healing from all the wounds caused by this destructive war. That is why the Historical Committee on Warfare is still searching for resolutions and is trying to deal with the consequences of the war.

Britain had a powerful military with alliance of American loyalists, German soldiers and its composition of 48,000 British soldiers

While it lacked large numbers of troops to contribute to the British war effort, Australia gave everything it had and this included primary produce and other vital supplies. In fact, during the war years Government passed the War Precautions Act, which gave it the freedom to make new laws more easily and thus focus the entire

England being separated by only the English Channel had much more to deal with than just a harsh restricted economy they also had to deal with the immediate threat of could come from the European mainland. So England needed to mobilize its Home Front and this was done so in many ways to inspire the necessary changes to help protect its citizens. The British media and entertainment was essentially an extension of the war cabinet in raising public morale. The threat

he effort on the Canadian government and civilians did lead towards the allied victory of WW2 by the control of financial. In World War 2, paying for the war and waging the war were expensive, so the king figured out ways to pay it all, by raising income tax and selling Victory Bonds. The way of selling the Victory bonds is to sell it to people and a few years later, they would get their money plus the interest back. Meanwhile, the government could use this money to pay for the war effort. The Chinese Canadians raised $4 million in the relief funds and send $5 million to support the effort in China. The total expenses that the federal government spending on the War effort were $21 786 077 519 from 1939-1950. At the end of the war, the victory

World War II opened a new chapter in the lives of Americans. One of the greatest conversions was that of the American women. Women around the country were transformed from the average house wife into people of important and purpose.

The entry of Japan into World War was accompanied by a shifting relationship between England and Australia. Up until the fall of Singapore on the 15th of February 1942, England enjoyed the unconditional support of Australia in fighting the war in Europe. The fall of Singapore and Britain’s subsequent surrender in the region brought the war closer than ever to Australia. This new perspective on the war resulted in a reconsideration of Australia’s position in the commonwealth and forged a new relationship with America. In order to understand these changing perspectives, it is essential to look at Australia’s relationship with England pre-World War 2, why Australia looked to America, how America responded to Australia’s appeal for support and subsequent changes to Australia’s foreign policy.

At the very end of World War 2, the British people is craving for a change in the economic and social policies of their country. In fact, the Great Depression and pre-war Conservative governments were very disappointing : Chamberlain's (from 1937 to 1940) and Churchill's (from 1940 to 1945) governments were practically only based on foreign policy (because of the war and the progressive degradation of the British Empire), and were considered responsible for not enough preparing Britain to war ; moreover, the Great Depression's various governments (Labour as well as Tories) were blamed because they did not assure the people's, and particularly the working-class'
