AnswerThe axis powers during WWI was a coalition headed by Germany, Italy, and Austria-Hungary. This 'axis' opposed the Allied Powers in World War II.
No. The common misconception is that WW1 ended on 11 November 1918 at 11:11am GMT. However, this was when the final cease-fire took effect (i.e the de facto end of WW1)WW1 officially ended when the last of the peace treaties between the former Central Powers and the Allied Powers was complete. This last treaty was the Treaty of Sevres, signed 10 August 1920, between the Ottoman Empire and the Allied Powers.
Japan was the last of the remaining axis powers in WWII, and its surrender ended WWII, as the axis forces had been completely defeated
They were both the axis powers last gambles to stop and destroy the advancing allied forces but were defeated the Japanese lost the rest of their carriers and lost some of their best battleships and cruisers. The Germans lost many of their best tanks and crews in Bulge.
Tensions between the U.S. and the Axis powers had been building up for years. Pearl Harbor was the just the last straw.
America, France, Britain, and Canada began by taking France back, At this time Russia begin to move towards Germany with over whelming numbers or soldiers and tanks, Russia moves into Germany in 1944 and reaches Berlin in 1945. The German made their last stand at Berlin and lost, Hitler shot himself, and the war was over.
The last nation to officially enter World War II was Brazil, which declared war on the Axis powers on August 22, 1942. Brazil had previously maintained a neutral stance but became involved after German U-boats attacked Brazilian merchant ships. The Brazilian Expeditionary Force later participated in combat in Italy as part of the Allied forces.

Japan, August 1945, after the second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, and after Russia declared war on Japan,
The Battle of the Atlantic lasted for the duration of World War II, from September 1939 to May 1945. It was the longest continuous military campaign of the war. The battle was fought between the Allied powers, primarily the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada, and the Axis powers, primarily Germany and Italy, for control of the Atlantic Ocean and the vital sea lanes for supplies and reinforcements.
Until May of 1943, both Axis and Allied troops were present in North Africa, although Axis units were continually being squeezed into an ever-shrinking perimeter eventually centered in Tunisia. By May 13th, however, the last major Axis units had either retreated into Italy or surrendered to the Allies.
