Allies

The Japanese advancement throughout Asia-Pacific greatly concerned the Allies. While the war had begun in 1939, things began getting troublesome for Australians, when the Japanese advancement became apparent. With the fall of Singapore, the bombing of Pearl Harbour and the battle at Kokoda, the Allied forces had to work together to overcome the Japanese. While Australia had previously been in the war, Japanese aggression provoked panic throughout the country. Australian troops had previously…

air dominance. In the early stages of the war, the German Luftwaffe was dominating the allied skies. Do in great part to the great planes the Luftwaffe had, the Stuka dive bombers, and the Focke-Wulf 190s were amazing planes of the time period. The allies did not have much in the way of defeating these planes until the British Spitfire came into service, but even then that was not enough. The United States needed a long-range heavy bomber to bomb the axis powers in submission, the wish was…

Who was Charles de Gaulle? How did he end up as the leader of Free France? What other key Frenchmen competed with De Gaulle for leadership and why did the Allies support De Gaulle? General Charles de Gaulle was one of the innovators of armored warfare as practiced in World War II. De Gaulle’s writings, although first ignored, eventually led to his obtaining command of the French 4th Mechanized Division in May, 1940, just as the German invasion began. The counterattack he made did not save his…

country, when they actually win their promises are often not followed through. This is because, despite humanity's best efforts, when placed in a position of power even those with the purest intentions succumb to unethical practices as seen in Matched by Ally Condie and The Circle by Dave Eggers. Such unethical practices consist of their obsessive need to control others and their reaction when control cannot be obtained, how they will endanger others for their own personal gain, and how they…

Why didn't the Allies bomb the death camps This topic, “ Why didn't the Allies bomb the death camps” is still a debate today, many people argue that the Allies was right for not bombing the death camps because the Allies’s goal was to win the war as fast as they could. If the Allies wanted to win the war as fast as they can, they would use all the planes they had in war and not use the planes to finish missions not related from winning the war as fast as they can. Some people debate…

War l constituted severe economic shocks to the powers who participated in the War. All the powers suspected a short war. Neither side made any economic preparations for a long war however, the longer the war went on, the more the Allies were at an advantage. The allies had much more potential wealth that they could expend on the war. The central powers had long been at a disadvantage due to their economy, and in the end, their economy declared their fate. The German Empire was one of the…

the ending was confusing because the book ended in the second year of world war two. I really wanted to know what is going to happen to Sophie and her family because if you know very little about world war two you would want to know when did the Allies free France. In other books, authors tell you about the whole years of world war two with important details. In this book, I think there are some parts that the author could have gotten rid of like the part she is talking about a Scottish soldier…

Pre-Cold War Tensions (357) The tension between Stalin and the Allies was a problem that nobody could do anything about. With the tension that had erupted it had made the task of deciding Germany’s fate when Germany would suffer and the fate of eastern European states. American President Roosevelt had no real power to tell Stalin to leave countries, but because the United States traditionally pushed the self-determination, Roosevelt and Churchill would hope that Stalin would move out on his own.…

The Allies won the First World war for a variety of reasons. The political situation in Germany for most of the war was a “State of Siege” which began on the 31st of July 1914, and transferred the administration of Germany (except Bavaria) to local army commanders who were above pre-existing civilian authorities in an attempt to secure the volume of raw materials required by the army to fight this war, an early example of the State intervening into the economic organisation of Germany.…
