World War Two is the cruel, black scar that marks the back of the Twentieth century. Etched out by dictators, genocides and opening of the Atomic Era, how did this fiery conflict erupt into the biggest bloodiest War on this Earth? After World War One the seeds of World War Two were planted through the unbearable burdens put on the German people from the infamous treaty of Versailles. With the rise of the notorious dictator Hitler, the German people thirsted for a new beginning. The Western World appeased Nazi Germany which sought more land and threatened war if it’s demands were not met and the Great Powers complied to try to prevent another fierce war, but the new dictator couldn’t be appeased and eventually invaded Poland, sparking World War Two. In order to liken the prevention of war the League of Nations should have introduced collective security to deal with the German aggression instead of appeasement.…
The fragments of WWI were what contributed to affecting countries like Japan, Germany, and Italy to commence a second all-out war, well-known as World War II. Germany was left in a weakened state and wanted to reassert its power, the rise of fascism with its creator Benito Mussolini, and Japan seeking vengeance for its humiliation were key points that mobilized them to begin their counter attack. At the start of the war, it was Germany vs France and England, while the United States was in neutrality that only sent out material support and that was due to the fact that American isolationism was a powerful movement that impacted the U.S. However, there was the acknowledgement of Americans that Germany’s aggression was dangerous and intolerable, but it was not enough for them to enact war. In spite of the U.S.’s determination not to move from neutrality, December 7, 1941 would become the ambition for the United States to join hostile warfare against Germany, Italy, and especially Japan. Since, that was the day the Japanese sent in a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor that caused 2,400 American soldiers’ lives, utter destruction of naval bases I Hawaii, and left the U.S.’s navy military almost crippled.…

When WWII first began in 1939, the United States was hesitant to get involved.

However, when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, it was clear the American Isolationist debate was over. Not long after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States was at war with the Axis Powers, made up of Germany, Italy, and Japan.
