War: World War II

This board explores WWII (1939-1945). Although there are a number of causes for the global conflict, from the standpoint of the West, Germany's invasion of Poland is typically cited as the catalyst. In the end more than 70 million soldiers and civilians died, more than from any other war in history. WWII ended in 1945 with the invasion of Germany and the dropping of two atomic bombs on Japan. For images & information related to the Holocaust, see our board titled, "Crime: Indefinite Detention."
