It all started in 1939 when Germany, led by the infamous Adolf Hitler, invaded Poland. This move prompted the United Kingdom and France to declare war on Germany, and just like that, the war was on! As the conflict escalated, more and more countries joined the fight, including the Soviet Union, which initially collaborated with the Nazis before turning against them.
Now, you might be thinking, what about the United States? Well, initially, the US was all about staying out of the war, but after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, America joined the Allies and entered the fray. And let me tell you, their contribution was huge - from the D-Day invasion of Normandy to the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki!
