The Allied powers opposed the Axis powers during World War II and included England, the USA, France, and the USSR. Their main goals were to maintain peace after the destruction of World War I and prevent the Axis powers from gaining further control. While initially following a policy of appeasement, allowing Nazi expansion, the Allies eventually entered the war as countries were directly threatened with invasion. The Allied powers fought to achieve peace but failed to take decisive action to rescue victims of the Holocaust during World War II.
The document summarizes the Allied invasion of Normandy on D-Day, June 6, 1944. Stalin had pleaded for a second front to relieve pressure on Soviet troops fighting Germany alone. General Eisenhower took control as Supreme Allied Commander to launch the largest naval invasion in history. The Allies deceived Germany about the target through misinformation campaigns. Over 150,000 Allied troops stormed Normandy's beaches defended by German fortifications, facing heavy casualties, in a major victory that marked a turning point against Nazi Germany in Europe.

AQA B History GCSE Hitler's Foreign Policy RevisionGeorgie Pearson
Hitler took several steps between 1935 and 1939 to undermine the Treaty of Versailles and expand German territory, which ultimately led to the start of World War 2. These steps included reoccupying the Rhineland in 1936, annexing Austria in 1938, demanding the Sudetenland at Munich in 1938, occupying the rest of Czechoslovakia in 1939, signing a non-aggression pact with the USSR also in 1939, and finally invading Poland on September 1st, 1939, leading Britain and France to declare war on Germany.
The Battle of the Bulge was a major German offensive launched through the Ardennes Forest in Belgium in December 1944 in an attempt to split the American and British forces. Hitler believed that inflicting a massive defeat would break the Allied coalition. Over 500,000 German soldiers attacked 600,000 Americans and 55,000 British under extreme cold and snowy conditions. Though it caught the Allies by surprise, the German offensive ultimately failed after over a month of fighting, costing them around 100,000 casualties.

The document summarizes the North African campaign of World War 2 between the Allied and Axis forces from 1940 to 1943. It describes the key battles as the forces pushed back and forth across Libya and Egypt, culminating in the Allied victory at the Second Battle of El Alamein in late 1942. This turned the tide and allowed the Allies to take the offensive, invading Tunisia and forcing the surrender of Axis troops in North Africa in May 1943.
The document summarizes the key participants and causes of World War 1. The major Allied powers were Great Britain, France, and Russia, while the Central powers were Germany and Austria-Hungary. The causes of WWI are summarized as militarism, alliances, nationalism, imperialism, and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Key battles discussed include the Battle of Marne, Battle of Somme, and the Battle of Verdun on the Western Front as well as the Battle of Tannenberg on the Eastern Front.
The document summarizes key events leading up to and including D-Day on June 6, 1944. It discusses how the Allies gained control of Italy and the plans for Operation Overlord to launch the invasion of German-occupied northwest Europe from the UK. It describes the extensive Atlantic Wall fortifications built by Germany along the French coast and the criteria for selecting the Normandy beaches as the landing site for the largest amphibious invasion in history.
This document summarizes the North Africa Campaign of World War II. It explains that both Allied and Axis powers had colonial interests in Africa, leading Germany to send reinforcements under Erwin Rommel to support Italy against the British. Rommel was initially successful pushing the Allies back, but lacked supplies. At the Second Battle of El Alamein in 1942, the Allies held the line and defeated Rommel, marking the first Allied victory over German forces in World War II.
The National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (the Suffragists), led by Millicent Fawcett, was established in 1897 to campaign peacefully for women's right to vote. They organized petitions, letter-writing campaigns, and marches to persuade MPs. They also supported the Labour Party and suspended their campaign during World War 1 to support the war effort. While their peaceful protests showed women could be responsible citizens, the rise of the more radical Suffragettes showed the limitations of the Suffragists' campaign as it had failed to achieve the vote by the 1900s despite decades of efforts by various women's suffrage groups.
La Primera Guerra Mundial comenzó en 1914 y finalizó en 1918, dejando más de 9 millones de soldados muertos. Los bandos enfrentados fueron las Potencias Centrales de Alemania y Austria-Hungría contra la Triple Entente de Reino Unido, Francia y Rusia. Tras cuatro años de sangrientos combates en frentes como el Occidental y el Oriental, los Aliados obtuvieron la victoria, lo que llevó al derrumbe de cuatro imperios y al rediseño del mapa de Europa a través de los Tratados de Paz
Hitler's foreign policy from 1933-1939 focused on three goals: destroying the Treaty of Versailles, uniting German speakers, and gaining Lebensraum. He withdrew Germany from the League of Nations in 1933 and began secret rearmament. Through threats and appeasement, he annexed the Rhineland, Austria, and the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia. In 1939, he invaded Poland, prompting Britain and France to declare war, starting World War II in Europe.
The document summarizes the origins of World War II, explaining how dictators rose to power in Europe and Japan in the 1920s-1930s due to resentment over treaties, economic troubles, and failure of the League of Nations. It describes the key dictators like Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin and their ideologies. It then outlines the major events that led to war in Europe, including German and Italian expansionism and appeasement by Britain and France, culminating in the German invasion of Poland in 1939 and the Soviet invasion of eastern Poland and Baltic states.
The Cold War intensified in the late 1940s and early 1950s as tensions rose between the United States and Soviet Union over the fate of postwar Europe and East Asia. The Soviets expanded their control over Eastern Europe, leading the US to implement the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan to contain communism. The Berlin blockade escalated tensions further until the US launched the Berlin airlift. In Korea, communist North Korea invaded South Korea in 1950, drawing the US into the Korean War as part of a UN coalition to defend South Korea, even as the conflict brought the US and China close to direct war. The Korean War ended in a stalemate but increased US defense spending and global military commitments for the foreseeable future.

Interpreting a Political cartoon IGCSE HistoryGuerillateacher
The cartoon from 1925 depicts two boys fighting that represent Bulgaria and Greece. A large dove, representing the League of Nations, uses its moral authority to stop their quarrel. The poem suggests the League was able to end the war between ridiculous, small nations. As a British political cartoon from the time, it aims to ridicule Greece and Bulgaria and portray the League's success as belittling.
The Battle of Stalingrad took place from September 2, 1942 to February 2, 1943 in the city of Stalingrad (now Volgograd) between German and Soviet forces. Hitler wanted to capture Stalingrad to cut off Soviet supply lines and advance further into Russia, but the Soviets launched a counteroffensive that led to the surrender of the overwhelmed German 6th Army. This major defeat marked a turning point in World War 2, weakening the German forces and signaling the decline of Nazi Germany.
The document discusses Canada's involvement in World War 1, including the training of troops, key battles like Vimy Ridge and Passchendaele, and the impact on Canada. It describes how Sam Hughes established a training camp and trained 32,000 troops. It also discusses major battles that Canadian troops fought in, such as Vimy Ridge in 1917 where Canadian troops captured the strategically important ridge, and Passchendaele in 1917 which cost over 15,000 Canadian lives despite warnings from General Currie.
The Berlin Wall was built in 1961 by East Germany to stop the flow of citizens to West Berlin. It was constructed in stages, starting with a barbed wire fence and expanding to include concrete walls, guard towers, and a death strip between two walls. Over its existence, around 100-200 people were killed trying to escape by climbing the wall or through tunnels. The wall divided Germany until 1989 when Hungary opened its border and travel restrictions collapsed, ultimately leading to the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989.
Operation Overlord (D-Day) and Canada's RoleMr. Finnie
The document provides a detailed overview of key events leading up to and including D-Day on June 6, 1944. It summarizes the situation in 1944 with the Allies advancing in Africa and Italy while Russians defeated Germans in the East. It then outlines the strategic importance of Normandy for the Allied invasion of Europe, describing planning for the air and sea bombardment and five sector landings. On June 6th, over 150,000 Allied troops launched the largest naval invasion in history on the beaches of Normandy, marking a major turning point in the war.
The document summarizes several major battles of World War 1, including the Battle of Tannenberg between Germany and Russia, the Battle of Verdun between France and Germany, the Battle of Somme between France/Britain and Germany, and the First Battle of the Marne between France/Britain and Germany. It also discusses the Gallipoli Campaign between France/Britain and the Ottoman Empire, the stalemate caused by trench warfare on the Western Front, and the Christmas Truce of 1914.
The Battle of Somme was a major World War I battle that took place from July to November 1916 along a 30km front in northern France. Over 1 million British and French soldiers attacked German positions, but suffered over 600,000 casualties, especially on the first day where 58,000 British soldiers were killed. The battle resulted in small territorial gains for the Allies but drained German resources. New technologies like tanks were first used during the Somme but had limited success. By November heavy snow and losses on both sides ended the offensive.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WHAT WAS THE IMPACT OF THE TREATY OF VERSAILLES ON THE R...George Dumitrache
The document discusses the impact of the Treaty of Versailles on Germany and the instability it caused during the Weimar Republic. It imposed heavy reparations on Germany, took away land and resources, and limited the size of its military. This caused resentment and political unrest. The Freikorps right-wing paramilitary groups opposed the treaty. Hyperinflation in 1923 due to the French occupation of the Ruhr Valley devalued German currency, impoverishing the middle class. The Weimar government struggled with instability, uprisings, and coups like the Kapp Putsch until reforms by Gustav Stresemann in 1923 stabilized the economy.

The Red Army Faction (RAF) was a Marxist-Leninist terrorist group active in West Germany from 1970 to 1998. The RAF was formed by students inspired by left-wing ideologies and opposed to capitalism, American imperialism, and the German government. At its peak, the RAF had 20-30 underground members and carried out bombings, arson attacks, and targeted assassinations of police officers and politicians. After a period of increased violence in the 1970s that included hijackings and kidnappings, the RAF began to break up in the 1980s and officially disbanded in 1998.
