The Battle of Stalingrad was the bloodiest battle in human history, Over 1.5 million Russian solider and civilians died. The United States and The United Kingdom dead’s combined does not reach a million .United kingdom lost over 450,900 people and United States lost 418,500. Together they lost approximately 869,400 people. I am not saying United States and United Kingdom deaths weren’t important as Soviet Union deaths. Every death deserve honor. I just believe Soviet Union have up a massive amount of its people in WW2. Soviet Union was a big country; it had a population168, 524,000 in 1939. United States had a population of 131,028,000. United Kingdom had a population of 47,760,000. Russian lost 14.2% of its population in WW2. You may say that not a lot but think of it this way 23,000,000 out of 168,524,000 people. That includes soldiers and civilians. You might still say that not a lot well let try this. The United States lost 418,500 people in WW2 out of 131, 028,000. That is approximately half of a million people the United States lost in the war. That is .32 of United States population. United Kingdom lost 450,900 out of 47,760,000.that is .94 % of the United Kingdom population. That is also another half of million people the United Kingdom lost in the world together that makes a million. Now how a million lives for 2 countries compare to 23 million lives lost one

This man knew exactly what he wanted to keep and more importantly what he wanted to change.

    Also another fact that probably anyone who studied W.W.1 would notice was that the Allies had many more troops and weapons, the Allies consisted of France, the British Empire and Britain, Russia and a number of other small countries including New Zealand, where as the Germans only had them and the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Italy who sadly swapped sides to join the Allies, and also a number of other small countries. The final blow to the Germans in the war was the entrance of the Americans in 1917. The Americans at that point were thought to be the strongest of all the countries as they weren't in the war until 1917 and they had time to prepare a large army and get a lot of money. The Americans gave the Allies the power they needed to defeat Germany and their accomplices. Of course the war wasn't won by the Allies as both sides called it a stale mate, but deep…

When a government is unjust, people should refuse to follow the law and distance themselves from the government in general. A person is not obligated to devote his or her life to eliminating evils from the world, but he or she is obligated not to participate in such evils(SparkNotes.com).Does…
