Why did the Allied planners choose Normandy for the cross-channel invasion of Fortress Europe What did they do to confuse the Germans?
The Germans expected the Alllies to land at Calais which would have been more strategic but Eisenhower knew this and so dummies were sent to Calais to divert men away from Normandy. The Germans expected the Allies to cross the channel at the shortest route, which would be at Pas de Calais. Previous attempt to land in France was targeted at a port city. The Allies instead decided to land on an open beach that was not near any port or city. They designed a floating port that would help them land the materials necessary to support the army until they could capture the port at Cherbourg. The Allies tried to decieve the Germans into believing that the landing had to be at Pas de Calais. That included bombing the area. On the day of the landings, they dropped dummy paratroopers(no, not stupid paratroopers, but dummy models of them). There were many other tricks that were used to mislead the Germans as to where the landings would be.

What was the conflict of D-day?
The conflict of D-Day was basically that the Germans had occupied most of Europe and the Allies wanted Europe to be liberated. The Allies, Britain, USA, Canada and the British colonies then decided to invade France to defeat the Germans on land.
What countries did the allies control during World War 2?
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.

What was the Treatment of the Germans after world war1?
Following WW1, Allied forces kept a blockade around German ports, so that they could not trade with other countries. This was done to force the Germans to sign the peace treaty at the end of the war- the treaty of Versailles. The Germans had to sign the treaty, or the blockade would not be lifted. If the blockade was not lifted, Germany would have run out of food. In the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was forced to pay large reparations to the Allies. Also, some of it's land was taken away. This was unfair to the Germans, who had surrendered because they thought that the Allies would use United States President Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points in the peace treaty.
