During World War II, the three most important European battles that took place were the Battle of Britain in 1940, the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942/1943, and the Battle of the Bulge in 1944/1945. The first ensured that Germany would not win a quick victory in the war. The second proved that Germany had, indeed, overstretched itself by engaging in a two-front war. The third used up the last of Germany's military reserves, ensuring its final defeat while also enabling the Soviet Union to gain control of most of Eastern Europe, which set the stage for the Cold War to come.
During a war, a "front" is a place where armies are fighting battles. In World War I, most of the major battles were in Europe. So in World War I, "Western Front" refers to the front in the western portion of Europe- it was mainly in northern France, where Germany had invaded. The "Eastern Front" was in Eastern Europe, primarily around the borders between Russia and Germany/Austria-Hungary.

Russia is an important country, as it is the largest in the world. Only part of Russia is in Europe, with most of it being in Asia. Moscow, Russia's capital city is in Europe, as are many of its important cities.
Russia is the country that the Volga River runs through. It is the longest river in Europe and an important waterway for transportation and commerce in Russia.

The capitol of Russia, Moscow, is in Europe and Russia began as a European state. However, more than half of the lands that now constitute Russia are in Asia. So Russia is in both Europe and in Asia.
