WWII (1 jan 1939 ano – 1 jan 1945 ano)

Descrição:

World War II was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945. It involved the vast majority of the world's countries. Directly involving more than 100 million people from more than 30 countries, the major participants threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort. This blurred the distinction between civilian and military resources. World War II was the deadliest conflict in human history, marked by 70 to 85 million fatalities. Tens of millions of people died due to genocides, premeditated death from starvation, massacres, and disease. Aircraft played a major role in the conflict, including in the use of strategic bombing of population centers, and the only uses of nuclear weapons in war.
