From a purely technical, military and chronological frame, the primary
antagonists were Germany under the Nazi Party led by Adolf Hitler,
Japan under its military (and so-called revival of bushido code) regime, and the Italian Fascist Regime under Benito Mussolini . That would address the
basic antagonists of just before and perhaps during the War. However, if
you ask what actually caused it, then you have to look back to the Treaty of
Versailles of 1918 and the failure of treaty enforcement and the rearmament
of Germany, to start. For the Japan question you would have to look at the
relationship between oil and steel and the U.S.A. and Japan and embargos
in the 30's, and Italian colonialism and domestic turbulence.
Don't forget that it takes "two to tango". Have fun.
