Germany in WW2

• William Donovan (Director of US OSS)
• William Halsey, Jr. (US Fleet Admiral)
• Winston Churchill

For Germany. the goal was to mainly occupy Moscow withing 7 Months of Operation Barbarossa. During Germany's preparation for Operation Barbarossa, Hitler made 5 key points which were needed so that The USSR would fall and leave countries like the UK all alone. The 5 goals were

1.Leningrad

2. Moscow

3. Baltic Sea

4. Stalingrad

5. Maikop and Grozny oil fields

these 5 locations were Adolf Hitler's main goals because, apart from Moscow all were key soviet resource areas. Stalingrad and Leningrad both mass produced tanks, at the end of World War 2, these 2 areas would of produced other 50% of the Soviets entire supply of tanks. The oil fields were the USSR's main Oil Supplies, without this the Soviets wouldn't be able to defend nor counter attack the Germans. The Baltic Sea was a key transport link of goods throughout the USSR and the world. Moscow was the capital of the USSR, so if Germany occupied that then the rest of the USSR would of likely to fall.

After the invasion of Belgium, Luxembourg and Netherlands and the retreat of the surrounded English army in Dunkerque, the German army successfully break through the French defense the 5th of June 1940.

A panic occurred, with millions of people moving south to flee the battlefield - this is "l'exode" (the exodus).

The progression was so quick that the french govnerment decide to move to Bordeaux the 10th of june. The same day, Italy declared war on France.

Paris, declared open-city, is invaded by German troops the 14th of June.

As the french army generals preferred to surrender, The french "président du conseil" (prime minister during the 3rd french republic) Paul Reynaud, who wanted to keep on fighting, decide to quit, the 16th of June. He is replaced by Petain in order to sign the armistice.

The 17th of June the new government moved from Bordeaux to Vichy.

The armistice is signed the 22nd of June at Rethondes, in the railway carriage where the armistice was signed in 1918, a humiliating defeat for Germany. Hitler chose this location to exact his revenge on France. It was the beginning of the collaboration.

The German army had invaded two thirds of France in three weeks.

Finland actually had three different presidents during the WW2. The first was Kyösti Kallio, who was the president years 1937-1940. The second was Risto Ryti, 1940-1944, and the third was Gustaf Mannerheim, 1944-1946. Mannerheim is perhaps the most famous of them, having been a general of the Finnish army in both of the World Wars.

If he did, it was not mentioned in the books. It did not sound as if he ever did though. It was mentioned several times that Voldemort was incapable of love, and it seemed he was too busy trying to rule the wizarding world to have casual flings.

The German invasion of France started on 10 May 1940 and resulted in the French surrendering on 22 June 1940.

Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.

They probably did not, but Sweden (like Switzerland) had very powerful defenses, and since Sweden was willing to buy and sell with anyone it was considered unnecessary to invade and occupy.

Adolf Hitler's father, Alois, had the last name Schicklgruber originally, but he changed his last name to Hitler thirteen years before Adolf was born, therefore Adolf's real last name is Hitler.

Partially, it was because at the time many felt that the terms of the Treaty of Versailles were too severe, however, the bigger reason was the fear of war which many politicans of the time felt, since the memory of the horrors of WWI was still felt.

The country that would have had to act - and quickly - was France. (The French had troops only 60-70 miles away). However, France was deeply divided at the time between Left and Right and was heading for a general election. It was in a particularly bad position to undertake any vigorous action in foreign affairs.

An academic would say that the 'gay' label is, in this case, anachronistic. Those who study the history of sexuality have noted that in some cultures, such as Ancient Greece, homosexual activity was rather common. Even in that culture, there were some who preferred the same sex to the opposite sex, and vice-versa. They have theorized that, therefore, sexual orientation is something of a social construct. It's a complicated issue, but academics tend to address sexuality before the beginning of the 'homosexual' revolution of the late 19th century in terms of the Kinsey Scale, with 0 representing 'pure' heterosexuality, and 6 representing 'pure' homosexuality. Logically, in a society where homosexuality is extremely suppressed, those who engage in homosexual acts would often be those closer to 6 on the Kinsey scale (those who have no other choice). But the academics would tell you that these people would probably not think of themselves as 'homosexual', or whatever word they might have used in its place.

The term 'homosexual' was not invented until after Chopin's death, incidentally by a man named Karl-Maria Kertbeny, who had met George Sand in Paris (and perhaps Chopin as well, though we have no evidence of it) during the final days of their relationship. Kertbeny was an advocate for the fair and humane treatment of what he called homosexual people, though his ideas were not truly embraced in a widespread manner until a century later, beginning with the Civil Rights revolution in the U.S. Sometimes the word 'pederast' would be used instead of 'homosexual'. Technically pederasty refers to sexual relationships between men and adolescent boys, but before the late 19th Century it was commonly used in reference to homosexual relations between adult men.

Chopin's place on the Kinsey Scale is difficult to judge, considering the intense social stigma attached to homosexuality during his age. He lived in Paris, perhaps the most liberal place in Europe during those years, but even there, homosexual activity had consequences. One of Chopin's friends, the Marquis Astolphe de Custine--someone who certainly thought of himself as 'pederast' or the like--was a constant reminder to Chopin of these consequences, whatever his own inclinations. Custine had the money and social station to weather the scandal of his 'outing', but Chopin no doubt was privy to the reportedly cruel things said when Custine was not in earshot. Chopin himself was terrified of scandal, and while he outwardly lacked piety, he was rumored to be haunted by frightful visions inspired by his Catholic upbringing in Poland. (One can see hints of this in his letters and in his scrapbook entries, and George Sand talks about it as well.)

None of the best Chopin biographies address this issue very thoroughly or honestly. Those who give credence to the idea that he might have been more attracted to men than to women are generally also those who give credence to any idea about Chopin's life that has a touch of scandal in it. And so, the issue is not addressed appropriately at all in the academic literature that I am aware of, with the exception of Jeffrey Kallberg's work (and even Kallberg does not address the issue of Chopin's sexual orientation at all; he only addresses many of the overlooked and marginalized details tangential to the issue).

If I had to guess, I would say that Chopin was a 5 or a 6 on the Kinsey Scale, and that George Sand was somewhere between 2-4. She was Chopin's only significant relationship, and the letters show that Chopin approached the relationship with a certain amount of anxiety, and they also show that his relationship with Sand was almost entirely celibate. He was quite happy with her during the nine years they were together, but Sand hinted in her autobiography that they had an open relationship, and there is certainly room to interpret that information to be a clue that she knew he preferred men and that she was content to be a 19th Century 'beard' of sorts. But that is interpretation. Chopin had two female love interests before George Sand, and there are many details concerning both of these love interests that call into question whether Chopin was truly invested in them, or whether he was invested in the expectation that he should marry, as all upstanding men did. (Again, Chopin was very concerned with being upstanding.)

In conclusion, the question is very much open to discussion. If you really want to know, I would suggest reading Chopin's letters, particularly those to Tytus Woyciechowski, and deciding for yourself. Many biographers explain these letters away by saying that it was common for men to address each other in this fashion during Chopin's time in Poland, but notably, none of them have ever quoted any examples, either from Chopin's letters to other men, or from other contemporary correspondence. While Chopin did address a few of his other close friends in a similar manner, the degree of difference is substantial.

The Allies (including France and England) had made an agreement with Germany after the first World War called the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler broke the Treaty by doing things like marching troops into the Rhineland in 1936, but the first thing he did when the Nazis came to power in 1933 was build up the army and air force. These things were all forbidden by the Treaty of Versailles, but the Allies used appeasement - the policy of giving in to avoid war - which lead to Hitler taking over Austria and the Sudetenland, then a few months later the rest of Czechoslovakia (as it was called then) and finally Poland, which caused Britain and France to declare war.

the Et movie was a interestring choice of friday night movie night at home at 6.30 but i enjoyed parts nut not all of it i thought it could use a better prettier more attractive character then the alien in a bike basket. Maybe i woul;d be a better lead than ET. I have a more un wrinkly face and a prettey smile and i also dont have those massive bug eyes. I wish i had never seen the movie and i regret trying to relate to my mums choice. Maybe i should have watched 'legally bonde' or well... anything not like this it had a un clear story an ET was talking in a language that no one could understand. I regret saying i liked any of it. It is a bad movie and should be banned because of it's bad derectory and bad lines for these very un realistic characters. When i see a mpvie i want to belive that the characters match the story and ET was a disapointment. I hate all the characters and the cast was a dissapointment. My last words are dissapointment lot of room for inprovment and WHAT WERE YOU THINKING. I hate it ban this movie so no one can go through the disap[oint maent i did.

No. Since the 1950s they have worked together closely in the EEC and later in the European Union. The notion that France and Germany have been enemies for centuries was propaganda put out on by nationalist on both sides in the period 1870-1945, when they was tension and war between the two counties. Unfortunately, the propaganda myth was still taught in schools in many countries in the 1950s. Bear in mind that until 1871 there was no German nation-state.

In September 1938 the German chancellor Adolf Hitler had already united Austria to Germany and wanted to bring the Sudeten Germans under his rule. The mountains surrounding Bohemia (the Czech part of Czechoslovakia) were populated by ethnic Germans but the boundary was drawn in favor of the Czechs for defensive purposes. The British and French premiers met Hitler in Munich and agreed to the change of boundary, and the Sudetenland was annexed to Germany. But in March 1939 Hitler then occupied Bohemia and Moravia as a protectorate (not annexed), Slovakia was nominally made independent but its government was protected by Germany, and Ruthenia, the easternmost part of Czechoslovakia, was annexed to Hungary.
