The easiest answer is that the Allies dedicated themselves to total war. Total war means nations devote all of their resources towards war efforts.

You are not a moron for asking the question, but the answer requires years of study and branches into several fields (politics, economics, logistics, ideology, philosophy, etc.) I have been studying this question for 30+ years and I am still learning. Perhaps the above answerer is the real moron.

the real answer is that by creating a two way front at Omaha beach and Utah beach in France, the us closed in on he axis powers and defeated them. they also defeated them by using the island hopping strategy to capture and defeat the Japanese islands. They also won by dropping the atomic bomb on nagasaki and Hiroshima in japan.

I can find nothing false about "the real answer" above, but it seems to be answering the question "How did the US defeat Germany and Japan?" There were three other beaches besides Omaha and Utah (British at Gold and Sword, Canadians at Juno). The British had almost knocked Italy out of the war before the US arrived. The other front was in Russia, also ignored by the previous answer. I agree about the island hopping strategy, but Japan would have lost the war even without the atomic bombings. Yet, Hiroshima and Nagasaki did result in a shorter war and a million lives saved.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The allied forces were the british, US, France(Taken over by Germany), Russia and a series of more countries. The Axis Powers were the Japanese and Italy and Germany. Germany was taken by a series of attacks and tank runs after year of the Normandy invasion. Japan surrendered after the atomic bomb was deployed. the US wasn't winning against japan at first because they were equallly matched thanks to the new industrialized japan during the war. Russia took a major role wiping out Poland and the German borders. Italy left the Axis powers and Joined the Allied forces.

Japan was defeated because the U.S. dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Germany was defeated because it was an allied effort that produced two fronts. The western front(France) and the eastern front(Russia). Answer

Japan was defeated long before the atomic bombs (incidentally, developed by a team of Allied scientists including several ex-Germans and at least one Italian) were dropped. Japan's manufacturing base had always been small, and by 1945 she was starved of resources (including fuel) as the Merchant Marine had been virtually wiped out. Many of her cities had been flattened by conventional bombing, too. In fact Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been largely left alone due to their relatively low strategic importance.

The Allies were able to defeat both Germany and Japan because by the end of the war their manufacturing capacity far outstripped the Axis'.

1: Germany was ruled by an insane person who started a war with russia as he was fighting France and England.

2: That insane person also spent valuable resources committing mass genocide.

3: Germany was slowly bled dry of Natural Resources and capable fighters in the air (pilots take awhile to train). And the Americans were churning out the relatively crappy Sherman Tank in droves and building Liberty Ships to carry supplies across the Atlantic far faster than German u-Boats could sink them.

Theres more, but that's the basics.

The large troops of the US and the military resources at their disposal helped US and Allies defeat Germany the Axis of Power. Another reason was the invasion of Russia by Germany.
