WW2 Axis Powers

Dracula died

Great Brittain had first announced that they would strike Germany back if they would attack Poland.

Germany knew that it was already going to turn out in war anyway, so they took their chances. They invaded Poland.

Offcourse the real situation is more complicated, but this pretty much sums up what happend.

Ans.2: Your question is "when", not "why", so the answer is September 3, 1939.

World war 1 was the first world war.

World war 2 was the second world war.

WW2 involved the whole world.

D-Day took place on the 6th of June. The weather was rainy, as seen in Saving Private Ryan.

The primary 3 were the United States, Britain and Russia. Additional allied countries included Australia, Canada and New Zealand. Also, displaced troops from invaded countries such as Poland and France fought with the Allied forces.

The atomic bomb. the strongest bomb in the world is the nitrom bomb!

Not sure what the first poster meant by "nitrom bomb". If they meant NEUTRON bomb, then they would be correct only in that the neutron bomb was designed to maximize casualties through radiation instead of the heat and blast of other bombs. The explosive "yield" of most neutron bomb designs is in the kiloton range. The most powerful atomic device ever detonated was the Tsar Bomba device detonated by the USSR on October 30, 1961. The original design would have created a 100 megaton explosion, but it was reduced for testing to a 50 megaton device. The test device is believed to be the only one of its type ever built.

The "strongest" weapon of world war 2 was indeed the atomic bomb - although their combined explosive yield was still only about 1/1000 of that of the Tsar Bomba device. Even so, the atomic bombs were themselves about a thousand times as powerful as any of the conventional bombs used during the 2nd world war.

The axis just defines their rotation. It is relative to spin, so if a body does not spin, it has no axis. Kind of an imaginary line, like the equator. It is used for reference. Also an object that is not round and symmetrical and has a length and a width can also be referenced by these dimensions. The Longitudinal axis is usually an axis through the longest dimension of the body.

It was a stalemate. See link:

The 'Nuremberg Laws' is the common name for two fundamental anti-Semitic laws that were issued in September 1935, during the Nazi Party's annual rally in Nuremberg. The laws and a number of subsequent regulations came to constitute the legal basis of the segregation of the Jews from the surrounding society as well as the racial definition of Jewish-ness.

Franco did not "fight" for either side. Spain had just come out of a brutal Civil War from 1936-1939. However, as Franco had been helped in that war by the Nazi Regime and Fascist Italy, Franco felt an affinity for those countries and had good personal relations with those leaders. Hitler tried to encourage Franco to join the war on the Axis side and by 1942, Franco was strongly considering entry. However, the Allied victories in El Alamein and Stalingrad in 1943 showed that the tide was reversing. Allied governments sent a message to Franco that if he remained neutral, his country would not be invaded and he would not be deposed from power. As a result, he chose not to enter the war and was bypassed by the Allied Liberation in Western Europe.

He lead the design team that built rockets for Germany, the most famous ones being the V1 and V2, the "Vergeltungswaffe", a flying bomb that was extensively used against English targets.

The soft underbelly of the Axis Powers was Italy. The allies (US-led) launched the invasion of Scicily and Italy in order to knock it our of the war.

There were three. First, the Allies tried to get Greece to join them. They succeeded but the Nazis managed to take them over. Then, half of the USSR were taken over. Finally, a year before the war ended, France was occupied by Germany.

It was D-day. Also known as the invasion of Normandy (which is in France). It was a very planned out event by the United States

For the Allied Powers, Franklin D. Roosevelt was President of the U.S., Winston Churchill was Prime Minister of England, and Joseph Stalin was the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. These were the "big three" of World War II, and some might also include Charles de Gaulle, the President of France, to make a fourth. Note that initially, the Russians were allied with Germany until they came under German attack. The Axis Powers included Adolph Hitler, the Chancellor and Head of State of Germany, Benito Mussolini, the Prime Minister of Italy, and Hirohito (Emperor Shōwa) the Emperor of Japan. There were other players, but these are considered the major ones. Use the links below to check facts and learn more.

there was only a world war 1 and world war 2

The Germans lost somwhere between 3000 and 3300 troops. There where between 3000 and 3300 Germans that died on D-Day. To be honest I would like to know the source to the number of casualities on the German side. It would be nice if we refered to source when giving such information. There will always be a question of reliability to the answere when there is no reference to where the information come from.

Italy invaded Ethiopia. Germany took Austria and Czechoslovakia claiming it wanted all Germans in one country. Japan invaded Korea and China. When Germany invaded Poland, France and Great Britain declared war. When Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, the United States declared war on Japan, Germany and Italy.

Germany surrendered and Hitler commited sucide and soviets lost over 20million men in the war

Malta was an island in the Mediterranean Sea that was held by the British. From this island, the British could strike Italy and disrupt the shipping lanes that was re-supplying the Axis troops fighting in North Africa. Malta was heavily bombed by Italian air force but the island never capitulated.

A machine gun, is a self-loading gun that can fire multiple shots with a single actuation of a trigger. It will fire for as long as the trigger is held pulled or pressed or until the ammunition runs out. Machine guns are also called automatic guns, or fully automatic, to distinguish from semi-auto self-loading guns that fire once per actuation of the trigger.

Machine guns can be recoil-operated, gas-operated, or externally driven by hydraulic, electric or other means. Most machine guns have a single barrel, however some have multiple barrels in a rotating assembly. The difference between those and other multi-barrel systems such as volley guns is that only one barrel fires at a time.

They never really started to rule, they somewhat came to power over the years. The great depression in the late '20's and early 30's affected not only the U.S. but also most of Europe, and the people needed someone to turn to, someone who will look out for them in time of need. Now, Hitler took some advantage of that and rallied the people using propaganda and public speeches to aid his rising power. Fascist leaders like Benito Mussalini, the Italian dictator, took liking to the ideas and actions of Hitler. This paragraph is only very brief of what really took place.

Hiroshima is a seaport city in Japan. Cities, to my knowledge, do not have capitals.

On May 2,1945 the Germans surrendered,which ended the War in Europe and the Battle of Berlin. Hitler committed suicide just days earlier. On Sept 2,1945 the Japanese surrendered,officially ending World War II. The bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9 forced Japan to quit the War.
