The Allies did not "control" countries like the Axis did. The Axis occupied countries because their goal was to control the government. The Allies liberated countries, meaning they set them free from Axis rule and back into their own control. When the Allies "lost" land, it meant that they were defending another country and the Germans took that country over. When, for example, the USSR "lost" land, it just means the Germans pushed them back.
Enemies of USA during WWII were Germany, Italy (for a small time) , and Japan (ALL AXIS) The Allies (USA's allies) were Great Britain, France, Poland, Italy (switched sides) , Greece, and Canada to name a few. Good thing I took that AP European History class!

During World War II, Turkey maintained a policy of neutrality for most of the conflict. It did not formally join either the Allies or the Axis powers until late in the war. In February 1945, Turkey declared war on Germany and Japan, aligning itself with the Allies, but its contributions to the war effort were limited.

Hi Although we still refer to the US as having "allies" (most notably Britain, France, Germany and Japan, the terms Allied and Axis powers refers strictly to World War 2 when the Axis powers were Germany, Italy and Japan, and the Allies were pretty much everyone else. In VietNam, the fighting was solely between VietNamese soldiers known as the Viet Cong, and American forces. No allies, no axis. Phil
All Axis conquered countries were contested (fought over) until the Axis retreated from them. Allied Forces controlled all of them; with the exception of the Axis nations themselves (Germany & Japan) until 1945. So allies did not control most of the land some were neutral. the main countries allies had were Britain, Russia(soviet union), USA, Canada, Egypt,
The Axis forces defended the coastline of France. Most of them were Nazi Germans. The advancing forces were the Allied Forces. See the story of the Normandy invasion to learn how troops were moved and made their way through France on the attached links. Watch the movies They Longest Day, Saving Private Ryan, and The Band of Brothers to get all the detail you need. See links below.
The term of "Allies" was the most often used term to describe the coalition of countries opposed to the Axis powers. Another similar term was "allied forces". Each term means the same thing.
World War 2 was a global military conflict lasting from 1939 to 1945 which involved most of the world's nations, including all of the great powers, organised into two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis.
first we will start with the axis. there were the Nazis, Italians (they dropped out of the war in 1943), and japanese. the allies had the US, Canada, britain, and most of the other countries in europe.

When, for example, the USSR "lost" land, it just means the Germans pushed them back.
He was the head of the Allies military division. he was basically in control of all military actions that the Allies performed, although the Russians ignored his requests for the most part.
The Soviet Union played a major role; the vast majority of Axis forces were engaged against Russia for most of the war. The Russians killed more German soldiers than all the other Allies combined.
