How often did they shower at the concentration camps?

The Jews kept at these camps had lice and the diseases that came with them. At the begining they had access to cold water showers but when the camps began to be liberated, the guards left and the water was shut off. I highly doubt there were showers. Many who weren't gassed died from disease. One of those diseases was Typhus (not exactly sure if spelling is right). This disease was developed from POOR HYGIENE. Anne Frank died from this disease, along with her sister, Margot.

Hundreds of thousands of Canadian servicemen served (specifically 1.1 Million ). Canada proved their military strength (at the time), boasting the worlds third largest Navy, fourth largest Air Force, and seventh largest Army. Canada took on their own beach in the invasion of Normandy (Juno Beach), out of a total of 5 beaches. Canada took over 45,000 casulties (deaths only included in that number). Canada even had a wierd system not found in other countries, of optional enlistment. All other major countries had conscription.

What steps did the axis powers take to dominate their regions?

The way that the axis lost in World War 2, is that when the axis fell back to Germany, the Russians were attacking from the east, and the American and British forces were attacking from the west.

_____________________________________________________________________

You are not a moron for asking the question, but the answer requires years of study and branches into several fields (politics, economics, logistics, ideology, philosophy, etc.) I have been studying this question for 30+ years and I am still learning. Perhaps the above answerer is the real moron.

the real answer is that by creating a two way front at Omaha beach and Utah beach in France, the us closed in on he axis powers and defeated them. they also defeated them by using the island hopping strategy to capture and defeat the Japanese islands. They also won by dropping the atomic bomb on nagasaki and hiroshima in japan.

I can find nothing false about "the real answer" above, but it seems to be answering the question "How did the US defeat Germany and Japan?" There were three other beaches besides Omaha and Utah (British at Gold and Sword, Canadians at Juno). The British had almost knocked Italy out of the war before the US arrived. The other front was in Russia, also ignored by the previous answer. I agree about the island hopping strategy, but Japan would have lost the war even without the atomic bombings. Yet, Hiroshima and Nagasaki did result in a shorter war and a million lives saved.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The allied forces were the british, US, France(Taken over by Germany), Russia and a series of more countries. The Axis Powers were the Japanese and Italy and Germany. Germany was taken by a series of attacks and tank runs after year of the Normandy invasion. Japan surrendered after the atomic bomb was deployed. the US wasn't winning against japan at first because they were equallly matched thanks to the new industrialized japan during the war. Russia took a major role wiping out Poland and the German borders. Italy left the Axis powers and Joined the Allied forces.

What would have been the outcome of World War 2 if Germany had made an alliance with Russia and not with Japan?

Part of the reason the German invasion of the Soviet Union did so well is that Stalin had much of his army and airforce in forward positions along the Border with Poland. Any tactician could tell you that this is not a defensive posture. Stalin had plans to attack Germany---Hitler was the first to the mark. If Germany hadn't attacked then the Soviets would have. The war would have probably still ended up with Germany's defeat--but it is possible that it would have been dragged out for much longer since most of Germany's losses were due to the Russian winter which would have been avoided. autcaully ur wrong germany attacked russia first and jospeh stalin thought as hitler as close to like a friend since hitler was really the only real person he really trusted and stalin knew hitler was gonna attack russaia but didnt want to believe it and had a mental breakdown he ran away for about 3 weeks when he heard this and no one was able to contact him. one of his generals got excellent intelligence hitler was gonna attack him and he refused to believe until hitler attacked russia.also jospeh stalin was the type of paranoid revengeful guy he killed thousands of people that were loyal to him just because he had a slight suspicion that they werent loyal to him so to him hitler in his eyes was kinda of like a friend u know u can trust backstab u.if he never attacked russia stalin would've kept sopportin hitler and they would;ve tooken over britain and china would've been into either soviets or japs most likey soviets since japs fought the usa and was loosin then hitler would've stepped in conquer and occupy usa. then attack soviets and japan dont really know simultinuesly or 1by 1. he would've done this later because he was racists to anyone non aryan and jewish also most russians were jewish or alot of em and he didnt like communists. its not wehther if he wouldnt have done this its just if he would have delayed his attack till he got every thing in europe set up perfect. The question is too hypothetical. For Hitler, war against the Soviet Union was the centrepiece of WW2, and most of the rest was rather incidental. In 1917-18 Germany had defeated Russia, and tried to set up a vast empire there, but had been unable to hold on to it because of the war on the Western Front. Boundless expansion in Eastern Europe was one of Hitler's key fantasies. He had a dream ...

What did Hitler think about democracy?

Hitler did not like democracy. He was born in 1889 in a time of European monarchies and that is the only form of government that he was familier with. He despised them too and thought that they had become corrupt and were responsible for the lack of hope in the lower classes of the people that he grew up with. The form of government that he did espouse was very similar to commmunism in that is was socialist and supposidy for the little man, but with strong nationalistic overtones. Democracy meant mob rule to Hitler and he did not think Germany could become great by adhering to it. The ideal of a strong man to lead the people to greatness had long been prevalent in German thinking. Also the idea that the state and leader should have unquestioned obedience came from hundreds of year's of Martin Luther's teachings on man's relations with the state. After WW1 Germany had a democracy that given a chance would have worked, but with the worldwide depression and Hitler's constant propanganda against it, it failed and he and his gangster like friends took over and he became the supreme ruler of the people and the army.

After murdering friend and foe and millions of innocent Jews this madman finally died by his own hand. Ironically, Germany today as a democracy is one of the strongest economies of the world, and their experiment with strong man rule will hopefully never be repeated.

If Hitler was against democracy because it is irrational to let the mob rule, then there is a similar argument by Plato, and it goes something like this: Ruling a state is a skill. It is rational to leave the exercise of a skill to the experts. The people are not experts at ruling. In a democracy the people rule. So, democracy is irrational.

On the other hand.... It is irrational to have a mad person ruling a state. A rational form of government is one where the people can vote out a mad ruler. In a democracy the people have the power to vote out a mad ruler. So, democracy is rational.

____

The question can be ed without reference to Plato and Luther! Like other German nationalists, Hitler asssociated democracy with failure, military defeat, mob rule and socialism.

What happened to Tojo after World War 2?

At the close of World War II, General Douglas MacArthur, in charge of the U.S. occupation of Japan, kept Hirohito on the throne rather than charge him with war crimes, and Hirohito renounced his divinity and agreed to adopt a constitutional monarchy. During Hirohito's lifetime he was often depicted as a benign and even passive bystander to events, more interested in marine biology than geopolitics. Since his death in 1989, that image has been challenged by critics who argue that Hirohito encouraged the military aggression toward China in the early 1930s, participated in the planning of the attacks on Pearl Harbor (1941) and prolonged the war against the U.S. and Great Britain unnecessarily. After his death in 1989, Hirohito was succeeded by his son, the Emperor Akihito.
