Who were the leaders of the big three Allied Powers in World War 2?

President Roosevelt, Britain's Churchill, Russia's Stalin.
The leaders of the three major Allies of World War II: Joseph Stalin, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill.
There were probably more than three. The leaders of the Axis powers were Adolf Hitler (Germany), Hideki Tojo (Japan), and Benito Mussolini (Italy). In America, the president was Franklin Delano Roosevelt when the war began; his top generals included George S. Patton and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Among the Allies, the leader of England was Winston Churchill, the leader of France was Charles de Gaulle, and the leader of the Soviet Union (which was an ally at that time) was Joseph Stalin.

It depends on which side. On the Allied side, it was Roosevelt of the USA, Churchill of the UK and Stalin of the USSR. On the other side it was Axis with Hitler of Germany, Mussolini of Italy and Hirohito of Japan.

How did the allies defeat the axis powers during World War 2?

A thorough answer to this extends well beyond the scope of Answers.com, but in rather short form: Hitler got himself into a defensive position in a two-front war when he failed to conquer Britain and Russia both - and the invasion of Normandy came just as German supply and fuel lines were breaking down - from that point, it was a matter of out-supplying and out-lasting the Third Reich. The U.S.Navy had re-grouped in time to put all necessary effort into the Battle of Midway in the Pacific, and Japan never fully recovered from that loss, making their defeat inevitable, though the path to that defeat was greatly shortened by the use of the atomic bomb.

Are Italy and America allies?

Italy didn't become a unified nation-state till 1861-70, and Germany only became a nation-state in 1871, so by historical standards the time-span for possible alliances is short. The answer is no. Although Italy was nominally one of the Central Powers it at first remained neutral in WW1, then fought alongside the Entente (Britain, France, etc.) against Austria-Hungary and Germany. In WW2 Italy changed sides.

However, historically, North Italy and Germany - Prussia were part of the Holy Roman Empire, so for almost a thousand years the two states were part of the same state.

What Allied country had the most soldiers killed in World War 2?

The Soviet Union killed the most Germans of the three major Allied Powers. This happened during the large-scale fighting on the Eastern Front. German military deaths were huge on the Eastern Front, and civilian losses (missing & killed) were extremely large. Likewise, in return the Soviet Union had the largest number of deaths from the Germans as any of the Allied nations.

How was France an ally of us?

Germany, Italy and Japan (the axis powers) declared war on the United States which was apart of the allied powers. France was a part of the allied powers and were therefore our allies.

Second answer. You have it backwards. The US was an ally of France and England. France had a Free French Army led by Charles De Gaulle. These Frenchmen were troops that manage to escape from Dunkirk after the Battle of Dunkirk. They trained and joined the Allied Forces to invade Normandy on D-Day. They were able to free Paris of the Nazi Control along with the towns people and Underground Network. They also controlled the French Occupied Zone of West Berlin and West Germany. The US helped with supplies, food, fuel and transportation. It was a great cooperative effort by all the nations involved.

Why did the U.S. decide to enter war on the side of the allies?

In World War 1, the Germans kept sinking the American cargo ships that were neutral, so eventually the president had had enough and went to war.

EDIT -> The German's used Unrestricted Submarine Warfare, which sunk the Lusitania. The United States let it go the first time, asking them to stop using USW, not wanting to get involved in WWI. However, as the war started to turn against Germany, they started using it again. This is another reason the U.S. joined the war.

In World War 2, the U.S. joined the war because of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

Why did the Allies decide to continue the war in Europe until the Axis powers fully surrendered?

The Allied Forces had to remove Nazi rule and Adolph Hitler from having any rule or influence on any one forever. They were an evil bunch of people. I am being serious here. They practiced genecide, murder, torture, brain washing, used children to fight the war, invaded nations, killed women and children without abandon and did not abide by treaties or peacekeeping values. The Allied Forces wanted democracy returned to Europe and Nazism erased. They managed to do that for the most part.

How did the allies help the German economy after the war?
