General information:
After World War 1 ended, nearly the entire world was left in a state of crisis and debt. More than 8.5 million lives were lost in the process and twice as more were injured. The deadly war not only left these shattered nations with a pandemic that killed twice as many people as the war itself, but with financial burdens, political turmoils, and the hope to acquire world peace once again.
|
World War 2 was yet another deadly war fought from 1939 to 1945 between the Axis Powers --Germany, Italy, & Japan-- and the Allies which included Britain, France, and later the Soviet Union and the United States. Unlike the previous war, WW2 was provoked and caused by powerful dictators who felt that they [their countries] were betrayed by the 1919 peace settlement.
