However, that did not take away their hope of a better life, unlike some other war for instance, the first world one, where many people were struggling to keep their hope up and to believe that there would be a better life after it. Nevertheless, everything wasn’t perfect under the Blitz; many people got scared of getting killed, die, and of the bombs and this led to physical illness.

Erich Maria Remarque crafts an excellent account of World War I in All Quiet on the Western Front, in which the brutality of the war when it was being fought is portrayed through Paul Baumer, a soldier’s, eyes.

War can lead to the correction of social injustices enacted on people; the Civil War ended slavery, and World War II caused an end to the Holocaust.…
