What was US contribution to the Allies in World War 2?
The United States contributed many things: 1. Money
-The Allies were able to borrow $10.5 billion from sources in the United States, and $3.5 billion of that sum was raised before the United States entered the war. 2. Supplies
-American manufacturers made war materials to Allied specifications and shipped them to the Allies.
3. The Red Cross

-I would like to call your attention to the 369th Infantry which was loaned to France for a good while, but that's not all. Americans did a lot of fighting for the Allies in World War I.
Which battle turned the tide of World War 2 in favor of the Allies?
In my opinion there is two main points that allowed the Allies to win the war in the European theater. The first one is when the Russians were able to stall the Germans at Stalingrad. If the Russians would have lost Stalingrad Germany would've had little resistance on their march to Moscow. The second happened when Allied forces were able to halt the last major offensive of the Germans in the Ardennes Mountains of Belgium all so known as the Battle of the Bulge.

The trigger to the US actually declaring war was the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Prior to this the US was actively supporting Great Britain against Germany by Lend-lease. There was a strong feeling of Isolationism in the US, & it is doubtful that the British could have been effective in Europe had the US not sided with the Allies. It does beg the question what the world would now be like had the US remained neutral....

Three of the Alaskan islands were invaded and actually occupied by a large force of Japanese for well over a year. The US services lost thousands of soldiers in the battles, and to the weather, to reclaim them. On one island, several hundred Japanes even committed suicide to avoid capture.
So yes, the US has been attacked, has had a foreign force occupy land and has had foreign soldiers die in battle on its land.

How did the allies trick Hitler into sending his top tank division to calais prior to d- day?
The Allies tricked Hitler by having a French merchant ship drop a dead body with plans of a fake invasion to take place far west of Normandy and on high tide the body was dropped by the Normandy coast and floated to shore and was found by the Germans and delivered to Hitler and he moved a large group of his men to that point and left the rest at Normandy witch was still a lot of Germans and payed little attention to Normandy.
Hitler was taken by surprise and could not move his troops to Normandy and waited still thinking that there was an immanent invasion witch would never come. The Allies lost many men and the number would have been worse if the deception trick did not work. We should always be thankful that there were and still are people like that so willing to fight for what they believe in and to fight for other countries and for the United States of America these men were and will always be Heros.

The factors mentioned allowed the allies to win the submarine war in the Atlantic. The ability of the U.S. to build the so-called liberty ships so quickly and in such great numbers and the broadening of the effectiveness of allied air power also contributed to attrition among the German submarines. Losses continued to mount for the Kriegsmarine, and they were running out of u-boats and had difficulty servicing those remaining as the war wound on.
How did the Allies handle Germany and Japan after the war?
Both Germany & Japan were restricted on their armed forces, rebuilt with US aid, and in the case of Germany; divided between the Soviets and the Free World. Both Germany & Japan were "rebuilt" to support the US/NATO Forces for the cold war; Japan was rebuilt to support the war effort during the Korean War (1950-1953). During the Korean War, All serious repairs for Jets, Warships, Artillery, Tanks, etc. were performed in Japan. As well as assembly lines to build NEW military vehicles, etc. In essence: Germany became the BASE for Free World operations in Europe during the cold war; and Japan became the BASE for Free World operations in Asia/Pacific during the cold war.

What nation was a part of the axis and allied powers during ww2?
This is a hard one to answer.
Commonly known as "The Axis Powers"
You need to look at whether to include Nations that were taken over or just the ones that joined.
Germany, Italy and Japan were the most known members of the Axis Powers.
From there:
From that point you get into "Puppet States" where the Axis powers ran the government.
Like : Norway and Serbia
States like France where they were Conquered but negotiated a Peace and Voluntarily became Puppet states My example was called Vichy France.
And finally dozens of countries that were invaded and taken over.
There is a very Good Wiki article that explains this complicated mess.
Why was control of the Atlantic critical for Great Britain and its allies?
Britain imports much of its food and raw material. During WW2, Nazi Germany had a policy of trying to starve Britain into submission. The Americans and Canadians were sending shiploads of supplies to the UK and the Germans were torpedoing those ships laden with supplies. Without control of the Atlantic, the British people would have starved to death.
