Setting aside differences in order to achieve a goal is a difficult task for some to overcome, but many have found a way to set those issues to the side in order to become successful. While there have been many demonstrations throughout the course of American history where people have exhibited the ability to handle diversity amongst different groups in a manor where the goal is achieved. One of the major world collaborations in efforts of overcoming the obstacle standing in front of everyone was World War II. During this era, all democratic countries were in fear of being taken over by the powerful communist uprisings. World War II showcased many examples of coming together, how difficult it truly is to maintain a stable relationship, and
World War II took place from September 1, 1939, to September 2, 1945. It was a conflict that included almost every part of the world during the years. The Axis powers included Germany, Italy, and Japan and the Allies consisted of France, Great Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union and to some degree China. The allies consisted of Joseph Stalin, Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, Chiang Kai-shek, and Charles de Gaulle. On the other hand, the axis consisted of Adolf Hitler, Hirohito, and Mussolini. However, it brought advances in technology, the civil rights movement in the United States, and the modern women’s rights movement, and programs for exploring outer space.
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
Which weapons were created during WW2 and what was their impact on our society today? WW2 was a very industrious and devastating period in time, in which many weapons and massive bombs were manufactured to help win the war, killing many innocent people in the process. Some of the main innovations include infantry weapons, military vehicles, and a massive nuke called the atomic bomb.

I believe that World War II was a continuation of World War I because of some not resolved issues. Hitler violated the Treaty of Versailles by expanding the military and invading Poland. One of the events that led to the beginning of World War 1 was: Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism; which stands for MAIN. Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia but they then joined up with Russia. After, Germany declared war on Russia which caused the war to expand. World War I ended in 1918 when Germany surrendered. It also had a great impact on European countries after it ended.
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.
Did the weapons of WWII have an impact on the world? Yes, they did. Without them, the Allies wouldn’t have won the war. Americans wouldn’t have defeated Japan without the atomic bomb. America wouldn’t have defeated the Nazis either without the planes of WWII.
One could make the argument WW 2 was a continuation of WW1. World War 2 occurred twenty years after World War 1. WW 1 left causes leading to WW 2, like, Treaty of Versailles and the search for thorough ideas, such as Fascism, communism and militarism. It was due to the terrible conditions of different countries after the wars. I think that World War II was a continuation of World War I.
World War II had a major impact on America. America did suffer economic crisis from the
After the deaths of 37,508,686 soldiers by the end of World War I, Europe was a mess. Countries had been dissolved and rearranged, governments had fallen and been replaced, and economies were thriving then crashing, all as a result from World War I. One of the main goals at the end of World War I was to prevent another tragedy like World War I from happening again. Clearly that did not happen, as World War II still happened, causing over 50 million deaths. The repercussions of World War I caused World War II due to radical ideology, bad economic conditions, and nationalism to the point of extremity.
It can be stated and proved that World War II was one of the most terrific times in history, with its persecution of normal civilians for not looking “perfect” or for their religion, and the genocide of all those groups. But how did this all happen?
When discussing WWII and The Cold War from an American perspective, the focus is likely to be centered on the wartime efforts of the country while debating strengths and shortcomings within those efforts. However, while the physical and psychological wars waged on, America’s homefront saw a continuation of fighting in the form of social movements aimed at attaining equality for all Americans. Minorities like African Americans and Mexican immigrants continued to face discrimination and racism during WWII but were shaped in different ways by the war. The Cold War era in America is a very complex subject marked by heightened tensions, fear, and paranoia among citizens. Much in the same way that WWII shaped the plight of minorities and immigrants on the homefront, the Cold War era also effected what it meant to be an American by shaping the conformist social class. Reaction to this conformity would also be shaped by the Cold War era, and Americans would eventually become critical to these effects.
World War II happened during the time that women wanted more rights and wanted to be able to work. So when World War II happened, it created new job opportunities and women were able and willing to work. The war was fought between two alliances that was against each other, “the opposing alliances are now referred to as ‘The Axis’ and ‘The Allies’. The Axis group consisted of Germany, Italy, and Japan. The Allies group consisted of France, Britain, the U.S., the Soviet Union, and China. World War II was especially heinous because of the genocide of Jewish people perpetrated by the Nazis.” (Diffen LLC, n.d.d). World War II is known for being a brutal and long war that involved more than thirty countries. Also, some of the important things of
In 1941, the United States, still in the throes of the Great Depression, enters World War II. With the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, the U.S. Congress, after a request by President Franklin Roosevelt, declares war. War is declared not just on Japan, but also on its ally, Hitler’s Germany. Because their ages range from 33 years to 42 years, and because they are married with three of them helping to raise two children each, Paul Baumgartner, Frank Young, Orval Koehler and Frank Deppe are not drafted into the military.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt says , “ Citizens of all democracies unite in their desire for peace” in a speech addressed on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Statue of Liberty in October of 1936. This ties back to today's reality of all the different opinions in politics. Despite the different we all share the common hope for peace even though we don’t see eye to eye. This is an example of a true American.
