War material. Steel, copper, oil, lead are needed to make war material.AnswerStrictly speaking it's materiel. Materiel are "goods of war" like tanks, clothing, aeroplanes etc. These require raw materials for manufacture, naturally enough. Materiel refers to objects, material to matter.
Essentially, Germany, Italy, and Japan lost World War II because they ran out of resources. They lost too many men and materiel to win.
It was to blocade Confederate ports and intercept war materiel from Europe.
The great depression was created by what the Bible describes in 2 Timothy 3: 1-5 due to mankind's behaviour, in these words. "For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, no natural affection, without self-control, fierce, puffed up with pride and so forth... The causes of the Great Depression are: The stock market crash of 1929; the collapse of the world trade due to the Smoot-Hawley Tariff; government policies; bank faillures and panics; and the collapse of the money supply. All related to human's behaviour. The cause of World War 2 included unresolved tensions in the aftermath of World War 1 and the rise of fascism in Europe and militarism in Japan. The horror of War: Soldiers: " Catastrophic events -life-changing injuries or death-happen all around you. There is a constant feeling of uncertainty. " --Gary, from Great Britain. Civilians: " I felt like I could never be happy again. You fear for your life. but even more than that, you fear for the lives of your family and friends. " -- Oleksandra. from Ukraine. The Great Depression was due to mankind's greed and the war was also due to mankind's greed, with the enrichment of a few, who created and sold weapons. Diplomacy: Goal: Prevent or settle disputes peacefully through dialogue and negotiation to the mutual advantage of both sides. Limitation: One or more parties may be unwilling to negotiate, compromise, or accept an agreement. And peace agreements are easily broken. So Diplomacy does not always succeed, because everyone is defending their own interest. Here is what the Bible teaches. According to Isaiah 2: 4. People should abandon weapons and " beat their swords into plowshares, which means in useful tools . However, more is required, because violence begins within a person's heart. Matthew 15: 19 reads. " Out of the heart come wicked reasonings: murders, thefs..and so forth.... Jeremiah 10: 23 reminds us that God did not create us to rule ourselves, confirmed in these words. " It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step. For that reason, human governments cannot completely eliminate war and violence. Therefore, no human is ability to stop war and depression on earth. The Bible prophecy indicates that war and violent conflic would be part of the sigh of " the conclusion of the system of things, that mankind has created due to their poor choices. Read Matthew 24: 3 Daniel 2: 44 speaks about the government that will put an end to all human rulers, who was given enough time to prove that it not in human's power to rule over our beautiful planet. Matthew 6: 9,10 speaks about God's kingdom, that Jesus told us to pray for, and where God's will, will take place as in heaven also on earth. God's kingdom is a government that will undo all the harm that millenniums of human rule have done. It will provide: perfect health, peace and security, and a clean environment. Have you ever wondered ? Why is there so much war if everyone wants peace? Will we ever see a time when there is no more war? The Bible has the answers to such questions. So to answer your question, which is: Could have the Great Depression have ended without world war 2? World War 1 and 2 have opened the door for lucrative business of war.

The US role in World War Two was to defeat Germany, Italy, and Japan. As the strongest member of the allied nations, both militarily and economically, the U.S. shaped military strategy, committed troops and ships to battle, and provided its allies with war materiel.
