In World War 2 there were the Allies and the Axis
Allied Countries
At the start of the war the Allied nations were the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth nations, France and Poland but in 1939 Poland was annexed by Germany and in 1940 France fell to Germany, from 1940 to 1941 Britain and the Commonwealth fought the Axis powers alone.
After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and declaration of war by Germany, The United States of America joined the war on the side of the Allies in 1941.
In 1941 the Soviet Union was invaded by Germany and the Soviet Union joined the with the Allies, (Should be noted that the Soviet Union only aligned itself with the Allies in the interest of defeating Germany the Axis forces, relations between the the Allies and the Soviet Union where dubious at best).
Axis forces
From 1939 to 1945, Germany was the biggest and most powerful Axis member in Europe.
Italy joined the war in 1940 on Axis side but swapped sides in 1943 to the Allies after Benito Mussolini was disposed. Japan was an Axis member since 1937 but only joined the war actively in 1941 with the attack on Pearl Harbor
