Australia's involvement in WWII was small compared to the major belligerents. Following the declaration of war in 1939, and after the 'phoney war', Australian forces fought with the British armies in the defence of Greece and Crete. After both were overrun by German forces, we were forced to fight in North Africa, alongside New Zealand and South African forces, along with the British army. There, Australians were involved in the heroic defence of Tobruk, against the German and Italian forces.

However, after Japans declaration of war against the British Empire, Australian troops were pulled out of North Africa, against the Britons' wishes, and brought to defend Australia from Japanese invasion. Australians in the pacific fought in the defence of Singapore and the legendary Kokoda trail, which was the defining battle for Australians in WWII.
