The Battle of Britain was Germany's effort to gain control of the skies over Britain and the English Channel. This was a necessary prerequisite before the Germans could safely send their invasion fleet across the Channel to invade England. The plan for the invasion was called Operation Sea Lion, and preparations were well in hand. But the German Air Force did not win the Battle, meaning they failed to gain air supremacy over England. So the invasion plans were postponed, then canceled.

Choosing the most important World War II battle out of the group of El Alamein, Stalingrad, the Battle of Britain, the Battle of the Atlantic, and D-Day is not easy. The Battle of Britain is arguably the most important, however, because without Great Britain's success in it, none of the other battles would have taken place; moreover, Germany's might would have grown terrifyingly, as a result.
