Best Answer

Britain was one of the only original allied forces, if not THE only, to withstand conquering by Nazi Germany. However, this didn't mean that Britain escaped unscathed, as is war. Nazi Germany attacked Britain's suburbs almost nightly with air raids, as the allied powers did to the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, and Poland. This is why Britain suffered so much during and after WWII.
