This document summarizes the impact of World War II on civilian populations and home fronts across major countries. It discusses how the war led to total mobilization of societies and economies. More women entered the workforce to support the war effort. Civilian deaths increased greatly compared to past wars, including many children killed. The Soviet Union and United States fully mobilized their economies and societies for industrial production and military support. Germany and Japan mobilized later and faced greater challenges maintaining civilian support and production due to strategic shortcomings.
Suez Crisis 1956 Research Presentation MG

What was it like living through world war
Living through World War 2 was a fearful time for British citizens who were afraid of a German invasion after being pushed back at Dunkirk. Women took over jobs in factories and agriculture normally done by men. The government tightly controlled civilian life through rationing and propaganda to maintain resources and morale. Pearl Harbor drew the US into the war as allies after Japan's surprise attack, and major battles like Stalingrad and D-Day marked turning points as the Allies gained victories over Germany and pushed them back in Europe.
European world war ii timeline
The document outlines key events in Europe during World War 2 from 1939 to 1945. It begins with Germany invading Poland in September 1939, officially starting the war. The US initially remained neutral but later joined the fight. Significant events included the US supplying weapons to Britain in 1941, declaring war on Germany and Italy in response to their declarations of war later that year, and launching its first major offensive in North Africa in 1942. D-Day occurred on June 6, 1944, marking a major Allied invasion of German-occupied France. Germany ultimately surrendered on May 7, 1945, bringing Victory in Europe.
1914 to present
World War I was significantly larger in scale than previous wars, involving more countries from around the world and resulting in unprecedented casualties of over 15 million. The mobilization of total war engaged entire populations and economies in a way that deeply impacted societies and laid the seeds for conflicts after the war. The Treaty of Versailles imposed punitive terms on Germany, contributing to tensions. The Cold War emerged from ideological differences between communist and democratic forms of government, dividing Europe and much of the world between Western and Soviet spheres of influence and raising fears of nuclear conflict for decades. The United Nations was formed with the aim of preventing future wars and promoting international cooperation.

WWI
The Great War began on July 28, 1914 and ended on November 11, 1918, resulting in almost 8 million deaths. A key reason for its start was the alliance system which caused one event to drag all countries involved into conflict. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand sparked the war when the Black Hand terrorist group killed him during a visit to Serbia in 1914. New weapons like poison gas, machine guns, tanks, submarines, and airplanes contributed to unprecedented carnage during the war. Woodrow Wilson initially kept the US neutral but the country entered the war in 1917. After the war, the Treaty of Versailles redrew borders in Europe and established the League of Nations based on Wilson's 14 Points, though

Truth or Prapaganda
“ Naturally the common people don\'t want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. ... Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country”.

The war began in 1955 and ended in 1975 with a communist victory that reunited Vietnam under communist rule. The United States intervened in the war to stop the spread of communism in Southeast Asia based on the Domino Theory that argued if one country fell to communism then neighboring countries would follow. Key events included the Battle of Dien Bien Phu which led France to withdraw from Vietnam, the Gulf of Tonkin Incident which prompted greater US involvement, and the fall of Saigon in 1975 which marked the end of the war.
Red china by kaoko & nick
After the fall of the Qing dynasty in 1911, China was fragmented as the new Republic of China struggled with low central authority. Warlords dominated different regions with their own armies. In the 1930s, the Kuomintang nationalist party fought the Chinese Communist Party, who were outnumbered and fled to establish a new base in Shaanxi province. The fighting escalated until 1937 when Japan invaded China, creating an alliance between the two Chinese parties to remove the Japanese. After World War 2, the civil war resumed until 1949 when Mao Zedong and the communists defeated the Kuomintang nationalists led by Chiang Kai-shek, forcing them to retreat to Taiwan.

The Chinese Civil War began in 1946 and ended in 1949 with the victory of Mao Zedong and the Communist Party of China over the Kuomintang nationalist party led by Chiang Kai-shek. The war resulted from the struggle for power and control of China between the nationalists and communists after their alliance against Japan in World War II. By 1948, many nationalist soldiers had defected to the communists who also had greater popular support from peasants. This helped the communists achieve several decisive victories over the nationalists. In 1949, communist forces took control of Beijing and mainland China, forcing the nationalists to retreat to Taiwan.

Korean war-Poon and Chung
The Korean War began in June 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea in an attempt to reunite the Korean peninsula under communist rule. After initial successes, United Nations forces led by the United States pushed North Korea back near the Chinese border. China then entered the war and pushed allied forces back south. An armistice in 1953 established a demilitarized zone near the original border, dividing Korea at the 38th parallel. Over two million soldiers and civilians lost their lives in the three-year conflict, and North and South Korea remain divided and in an uneasy ceasefire to this day.

LOAPUSH 37 I like Ike
During the Eisenhower era of the 1950s, the United States experienced an economic boom driven by suburban home building, growth in electronics and aerospace, and a shift to more white-collar jobs. Women increasingly entered the workforce, though the 1950s ideal still emphasized domesticity. Betty Friedan's 1963 book The Feminine Mystique sparked the modern feminist movement. Consumerism expanded with new technologies like credit cards and entertainment forms including television and rock music. Eisenhower ended the Korean War and pursued a "New Look" foreign policy emphasizing nuclear deterrence over conventional forces. However, events like the Soviet invasions of Hungary and developments in the Middle East challenged this strategy. The civil rights movement gained momentum through the NA
