The ruler of Italy during world war two was Benito Mussolini, and through the 1930's used aggressive actions such as his change from pascifist propaganda to extreme nationalism, joining the axis powers, his invasion of Eathiopia and his invasion of Albania in 1939. France and Great Britain foolishly allowed Hitler the advancement of an army and navy without regard to Hitler's violation of the Treaty Of Versailles, despite his blatant militarism. Japan in the 1930's had began to expand into thailand and china. In 1941 Japan bombed the American naval base of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, causing the entrance of America to the war.

World war two, was not a war to be taken lightly, millions of people died, a whole race was almost extinguished, land conquered and deadly bombs dropped. It was a time of famine, and general disaster. Here is just a feeble description of the magnitude of the true situation and the danger of the time at hand. Food was scarce. All over the world people were starving or short on food, even in America. This paper is on the effects of the war in America and its repurcussions. Americans were put on food rations, like food stamps with a limit. The following is a list of a few items rationed. 1.Sugar. 2.Automobiles (shortage of production due to war due militarism.) 3.Type Writers. 4.Items made with rubber. 5.Stoves. 6.Gasoline. 7.Processed foods. 8.Kerosene. 9.Coffee beans. 10.Solid fuels in general. Rationing was necessary to keep supplies for the soldiers to survive the war, for if the war was lost, all was lost. Americans recieved cards that limited how much they could buy in wartime. The OWI, or Office Of War Information, was an organization that used propaganda and radio announcement to further define American's sense of emergency in the war. In my personal opinion, the OWI was a wrong attempt to bring American emotions and patriotism to a boil, and further more their methods worked as the people were far more ignorant at the time. Executive Order 9066. War paranoia had reached a crescendo, and President Roosevelt ordered all citizens and foreigners alike, of japanese or asiatic descent, were to be placed in humane war internment camps. I don't believe in the use for the interment camps, once again the order was due to discrimination and ignorance.

Another act in the war, perhaps the most foolish of them all, was the Manhattan Project, the first step into devoleping Nuclear weapons, and perhaps the darkest work humans have ever created. Without the Mahattan Project, there would still to this day, be no weapons that are as strong enough to destroy the whole planet earth. For that reason, Albert Einstein was a monster for helping do this. I honestly don't understand why people respect him as a scientist. We will ll someday pay for that mistake someday. On a lighter note this work is done. Hope you enjoyed. Sources Cited: [] [] Countless books and history texts.

Before his presidency, General Dwight D. Eisenhower led Allied troops invading the five beaches of Normandy June 6, 1944, as a plan to attempt to liberate parts of Europe from the German Empire. The evening previous, paratroopers landed from planes and in the morning soldiers came out of the water onto the beach, whilst also the French Resistance came out to attack Germans from behind enemy lines. The Allies fought inland enough for there to be room for reinforcements to land. The battle is considered as considered as the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany and Hitlers dream of taking over Europe. George Marshall's role in WW2 was that he authored the American plan to defeat the axis powers and oversaw the massive expansion of the U.S. Marshall was also the first U.S. Army soldier to become a five star general. President Roosevelt wished to keep him in washington as a consult and stragetist for the war. MESS WITH MY PAGE, OR MY GRADE, AND ILL STICK YOU.

The Us Army saw pure carnage when they came upon the concentration camps during the liberation of Europe. Bodies were thrown into mass graves, skinny, starved, and broken people were all that survived. the bataan death march is when Douglas McArthur lost all his troops to Japan, and they were held prisoner, beaten or tortured, or killed outright. McArthur was the leader of American troops in the Phillipines when they were captured by Japan. The battle of Midway was a pivotal point in the war as by the end of the battle the US was almost equal in naval terms and the US then took the offensive. [] [] [|http://about.comn]
