What did overseas colonies provide to the allied effort during world war 1?

Resources and manpower. The French used a lot of manpower from their colonies. The 'white' British colonies (Canada & Australia) were highly committed to the war effort and provided huge numbers of volunteers (and later conscripts) who fought on the European front in such battles as Vimy ridge. India was less committed to the war effort, but due to it's population the small percentage of Indians who did volunteer still added up to a significant force. Unfortunately it was a force mostly squandered in the war against turkey due to mistakes by the British officers placed in command of it. Many of the Africans were only permitted to volunteer for the war near the end as their colonial overlords grew desperate for cannon fodder.


How justified is the claim that the USSR contributed more than its allied to the defeat of Nazi German in world war 2?

This is an opinion type question.The USSR made a great contribution to the defeat of Germany, however it is not true that they made a bigger contribution to the victory than all the other Allied nations.In fact, from August 1939 through June 22, 1941 the USSR was an ally of Hitler's Germany, and supplied much of Germany's food requirements! Even after the USSR was attacked by Germany, the USSR was not very cooperative with the other Allied Powers, and sometimes obstructive. They were also involved in the murder of Polish (Allied) military officers.The USSR suffered the most casualties of any Allied Power, fielded the largest Allied Army, and engaged the largest part of the German Army. However its contribution in terms of strategic airpower, seapower, logistics & economy were smaller than the western Allies. The USSR did not fight the Japanese until August 1945, when the Japanese were already defeated.

What was the contribution of the british ultra intelligence network to the allied victory in europe?

It is difficult to overstate the contribution of the Allied "Ultra" intelligence network to the Allied victory in Europe in World War II. Victories on land in the crucial period of 1942-1943, then for most of 1944, often resulted directly from the "Ultra" intelligence. The Allied victory at sea, secured in 1943 and setting the stage for the opening of the Second Front in 1944, was yet another result of "Ultra."
