What happened in World War II?
The war didn't just start one day. Many events led up to this vivid memory. The whole
thing is based on propaganda and beliefs of a man named Aldof Hitler. In January 1933 he
became chancellor of Germany. As soon as he was in office he put laws on the Jews
community. Germany became obsessed with power and soon they are invading Poland, Britain,
Norway, Holland, Denmark, Belgium, Luxembourg, and France. War was on.
The war was a war on the world. Throughout Europe war was lose. The Holocaust was in full
swing. Jews were being sent to camps by the train full. Normandy invasion caused over
10,000 deaths and that was just on the French side. The Battle of the Bulge was a huge
surprise attack, which caused German to lose tons of skilled labors. Germany was
determined, they fought until May 1945.
The United States was in a battle for life with Japan. In December 1941 Japan dropped a
bomb on Pearl Harbor causing the day to be know as The day of Infamy. This was the start
of the US battles. The US became paranoid and placed Japanese Americans in Internment
camps'. Japan and the US fought continuously over land. The Battle of Midway, and Iwo
Jima were two of the biggest battles, the US won both. Japan still wouldn't give up. They
continued to fight and began a plan of attack. They had a top-secret weapon, the atomic
bomb. The atomic bomb was dropped in two major cities, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki. 75,000
people died, Japan gave up.
The war ended on August 9, 1945, the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki. The US
hit Japan where it hurt, and the damages are unforgettable. In May 1945 German gave up,
and surrendered causing a victory for the allies. The over all lose was huge, millions of
Jews, millions of Americans, millions of Japanese, millions and millions of people all
