How did bombing of Britain affect people?
The bombing by Germans/Japan in Britain affected us alot because they bombed the strongest cities- e.g the ones who supplied the most for our army. The capital London was also a massive hit. Everybody has blackout times when they had to literally turn off every single light, close their curtains when the patroller came around because if the Germans saw a light they would bomb there causing fatal consequences. Also, the bombs caused fires (look into the blitz!) which meant alot of people died. Some bombs didn't even go off! they are the dangerous ones. Lots of people moved their children to the country side so their children could be safe- this is called evacuation.

The Germans did not invade England in modern times such as during the first or second World Wars.

The main reason the Germans didn't invade in the 2nd world war was the British fought and won against the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, meaning the British had air superiority. It would be suicidal to attempt air or amphibious invasion without air superiority, therefore the Germans didn't invade.
