I believe you are thinking of Werner Von Braun, German Rocket scientist. Herman, is of course , a popular German name- means ( Nobleman or Army Man) Heer-Mann, or Herr-Man- sir, gentleman-man.) Mein Herr, you have got the wrong Von Braun. Herman Goering headed the Luftwaffe as Reichsmarschall- a rank specifically created for Him as Commanding Marshal of the Luftwaffe. There was no equivalent US Rank, Gen. HH. Hap Arnold was a General of the Army- that"s all ( at the time, and the song still reflects this- the Air Force was technically part of the Army).

Why did Hungary join the Axis?
For a nation of 10,000,000 population with little industrial strength or resource base and only a minor scientific community, the Hungarians did a lot. Their armies fought well in the Balkan campaigns and Russia. The Russian threat to European civilization was well understood by the Hungarian peoples and they responded by aiding the Axis cause. Their army was crushed in S Russia in 1944 and they withdrew the remnants to the homeland. A few lop sided battles were fought in and around the capital Budapest in late 44 and into 45 but Hungary was basically out of the war by then. As punishment for helping the Axis, Hungary was abandanoned by the western powers to enslavement by Russia. Russia pillaged and wrecked Hungary much like they did the rest of eastern Europe, although not so extensively as they did to Germany. After about eight years of this cruelty the Hungarian people rose up in revolt. The Soviet backed Hungarian army refused to fight their own people. The Soviets moved in with massive arms and crushed the Hungarians again. The west stood by, supposedly out of fear of triggering a nuclear exchange. Once free of the Russian chains, the Hungarians have sped to moderize their economy and have joined various western organizations such as the European Union.

How active an ally of Japan was Thailand in World War 2?
Japan Was Very active during WW2 So wasnt Thailand, Thiland also helped Germany So to say Thiland was very active.
Thailand may have been called SIAM during WW2. Nearly ALL occupied countries had some elements within their respective countries cooperating with the enemy (Japan & Germany). Siam may have been one of them. However, "allowing" Japanese troops to move freely through their country only would have made things easier for the Japanese. Otherwise, they moved as freely as they wished, they had the military power.

Why did Mussolini align Italy with Germany?
Hitler long admired Mussolini, and even tried to model his rise to power on Mussolini's. However, Mussolini did not return the admiration- in fact, Mussolini at first disliked Hitler quite a bit. In 1934, Nazis in neighboring Austria murdered their dictator, Engelbert Dollfuss; Italy nearly went to war with Germany over it (Mussolini and Dollfuss had been friends; also Mussolini didn't want Germany to gain Austria's territory, resources, etc). In 1935, when Germany began rebuilding its military in violation of the Treaty of Versailles, Mussolini met with British and French leaders at Stresa, Italy, to try to form an anti-German alliance. The attempt failed, as France and especially Britain had no desire to fight another war with Germany. Britain also made a deal with Germany behind Mussolini's back, allowing Germany to build a navy again.
All of this changed a few months after the Stresa negotiations. Italy went to war with Ethiopia after a skirmish on the border between Italian-controlled Somalia and Ethiopia; this led to a full-blown Italian invasion and occupation of Ethiopia. France and England wavered over whether to accept or condemn the invasion; this, along with Britain's naval treaty with Germany, shattered Mussolini's view of them. Only one leader really made any effort to support Italy's war- Hitler (although he also quietly gave supplies to the Ethiopians...).
Mussolini quickly warmed up to Hitler. He gave his consent to Germany's sending troops to the Rhineland region- an act also forbidden by the Versailles treaty (the Rhineland is a region of western Germany that borders France and Belgium). Around that same time, he also consented to Germany taking control of Austria, changing his stance since the Dollfuss assassination. Things moved fairly quickly from that point, as the two dictators shared a lot of common goals and ideas. An important point was that both strongly opposed Communism.
At the end of October 1936, Germany and Japan signed the "Anti-Comintern Pact", which was an alliance to help each other if Communists attacked one of them (at that time, the Soviet Union was the world's only Communist country). Two weeks later, Mussolini signed the pact as well. The Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis was formed; Hitler and Mussolini were officially allies.
What part of Europe is Germany located?

What was the significance of the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis?
Rome (Italy), Berlin (Germany) and Tokyo (Japan) were the capitals of the three main Axis powers in the Second World War.

No. Sweden was technically neutral during the war, but did do things to help Germany. Sweden has a lot of iron mines, so they sold this metal to the Germans (and Germany used it to make tanks, planes, ships and so forth). Also, Sweden has a long, bad history with Russia, so when Germany invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, Sweden helped Germany a little bit.
But Sweden did other things that Germany didn't like, such as help Jews escape the Holocaust. Once Germany started losing the war after 1943, Sweden started resisting German demands more and more- Sweden knew Germany was no longer a threat to them, so they were more able to resist.
Axes aren't inclined, they are tilted. Orbital planes are inclined, and Jupiter's is inclined about 6 degrees from the Solar equator. Planes can also be inclined relative to the ecliptic or the invariable plane. Jupiter's axis is tilted about 3 degrees from the ecliptic.
Why did the Allies fight the Axis powers?
The Allies entered the war on September 3, 1939, when Germany invaded Poland, which was allies with Britain and France.
The United States entered the war on December 7, 1941, when Japan, Hitler's ally, attacked pearl harbor, before declaring war on the United States, which they had intended to do minutes before the attack via a note from the Japanese representatives who had been in America to discuss peace terms, but the note was not delivered on time, but instead some time after the attack.
This is a very brief description of the reason for the allies entering world war 2, but is meant to be an overview. If you want to know more, I suggest looking up operations Barbarosa and Overlord on wikipedia.
It is an absurd to think that Germany was occupied unless it was a self occupation kind od happening. Any way, in 1938 Germany joined austria by Anschluss to it's 3rd Reich and begin in 1939 it's occupation by taking over Poland (after only 2 weeks of fightings). in acording to the riventrop-molotov agreement the ussr took control of some parts of Poland as well as the baltic countries. In 1940 the ussr begin fighting against the finish with the help of Germany over Finland and won some tertorial grounds.
In 1940 Germany occupied denemark and Norway, In may fell belgium and holand. these victoried made it possible to atack France from the north-east. In June 1940 France was divided to two parts and the northern part was occupied by Germany eventhough there were not a lot of soldiers there- it was more a colabratory between northern fance and the 3rd Reich.
In June 1941 begin Germany with help from the finish, Hungary and romanien to fight on the eastern front in order to take over the ussr and by that breaking the riventrop-molotov agreement, during that period the srd Reich occupied the baltic countries, the ukraien and parts of the ussr, but also found it's downfall.
