World War 2 began in 1939 after Germany invaded Poland. Germany was led by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party, who had risen to power in 1933. Hitler aggressively expanded German territory by remilitarizing the Rhineland in 1936 and annexing Austria and the Sudetenland in 1938. In 1939, Germany formed an alliance with the Soviet Union and invaded Poland, prompting Britain and France to declare war on Germany. Germany then quickly conquered Western Europe using the new "blitzkrieg" approach of coordinated air and land attacks. The U.S. initially remained neutral through isolationist policies, but began providing aid to Britain through acts like Lend-Lease. On December 7, 1941, Japan attacked the U.
The yalta conference 1945
The Yalta Conference in 1945 addressed four key issues: the future of Eastern Europe, the division of Germany, the establishment of the United Nations, and the end of the war with Japan. Regarding Eastern Europe, Stalin refused to allow international supervision of elections in Poland, breaking his promise to FDR and Churchill. For Germany, the country was divided into occupation zones that eventually led to West and East Germany. The UN was formed but Stalin gained veto power. Finally, the Soviet Union agreed to join the war against Japan in exchange for land in Asia. Historians debate whether FDR and Churchill could have achieved better outcomes or if outside factors limited their power.
Yalta Intro
The Yalta Conference in February 1945 brought together the leaders of the United States, United Kingdom, and Soviet Union to plan for the post-war world as World War II continued. There was a focus on Poland, as Stalin wanted to ensure it became communist and friendly to the USSR, while Churchill and Roosevelt wanted it to be democratic. Roosevelt was ill and trusted Stalin, while Churchill distrusted Stalin and was worried about Soviet influence spreading across Eastern Europe. Poland was important because it was the largest country in Eastern Europe and there were competing Polish governments-in-exile that had different views on Soviet control.

Post wwii the marshall plan
1. After WWII, the United States helped rebuild Europe and Japan by providing massive financial aid through programs like the Marshall Plan to help their economies recover from the devastation of the war and prevent the spread of communism.
2. Germany was divided into East and West Germany, with West Germany receiving aid from the United States and becoming democratic while East Germany was controlled by the Soviet Union.
3. The United Nations was formed near the end of WWII to replace the League of Nations and prevent future global wars, with the United States taking a leading role.
The War In The Pacific
The War in the Pacific 1941-1945 saw the United States and its allies including England, Australia, New Zealand, and China engage in a brutal conflict against the imperialist forces of Japan. After Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the US was left with a crippled Pacific fleet and was forced to engage in a strategy of island hopping to reclaim lost territory from Japan. This strategy involved clearing Japanese forces from islands one by one to build up bases closer to Japan. Major battles included the Battle of Midway in 1942 which marked a turning point, as well as the long campaign to retake Guadalcanal from the Japanese that year. Fighting was intense as the Japanese refused to surrender and the Allies

End of WWII - Path of the Cold War
The Cold War emerged from tensions between capitalist Western nations led by the United States and communist Eastern nations led by the Soviet Union. Key events that highlighted this conflict included the Berlin Blockade in 1948, when the USSR tried to force the Western allies out of Berlin, and the formation of opposing military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact in 1949 and 1955 respectively. The Marshall Plan and Truman Doctrine aimed to contain the spread of communism through economic and military aid to countries resisting Soviet influence. An arms race developed as both sides increasingly developed more advanced nuclear weapons throughout the late 1940s and 1950s, maintaining a tense stalemate known as mutually assured destruction.
The Yalta And Potsdam Conference
The Yalta Conference saw Allied leaders agree that Germany would be divided into four occupation zones after defeat, that war criminals would be prosecuted, and that liberated countries could hold free elections. They disagreed over Poland's borders. The Potsdam Conference addressed postwar issues in Germany, including reparations, with disagreements between Stalin and the new US President Truman over Soviet influence in Eastern Europe. By 1946, Eastern European countries had communist governments loyal to Stalin behind an "Iron Curtain".
End of WWII / Cold War
Following WWII, Europe was divided between Western allies like the US and Eastern bloc countries under Soviet control, giving rise to the Cold War. Germany was divided and occupied by the Allied powers. The US and USSR emerged as new superpowers but had opposing economic and political ideologies, leading to strategic alliances against each other. Both sides sought to prevent the spread of the other's influence and system, fearing an arms race eventually developed around nuclear weapons.
