World War II

World War 2, was fought from 1939 to 1945 in Europe and, during much of the 1930s and 1940s, in Asia.

World war II started mainly because of Adolf Hitler. Hitler was a evil evil man who wanted to 'get rid of' the Jew race mainly but he wanted the main race of the world to be German. Therefore, he tried killing off most other races. Making it a World War.

The United States entered the War on December 7, 1941, the day that the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. By the end of the War, more people were killed, more property destroyed, more people's lives were disrupted, and probably more far-reaching consequences were caused than any other war in history. World War II brought about the downfall of Western Europe as the center of world power, led to the rise of the Soviet Union, set up conditions leading to the 'Cold War,' and opened the nuclear age.
