Crash Course World History is now available on DVD! Visit http://store.dftba.com/products/crashcourse-world-history-the-complete-series-dvd-set to buy a set for your home or classroom. In which John Green teaches you about World War II, aka The Great Patriotic War, aka The Big One. So how did this war happen? And what does it mean? We've all learned the facts about World War II many times over, thanks to repeated classroom coverage, the History channel, and your grandfather (or maybe great-grandfather) showing you that Nazi bayonet he used to keep in his sock drawer and telling you a bunch of age-inappropriate stories about his harrowing war experiences. So, why did the Axis powers think forceful expansion was a good idea? (they were hungry). So why did this thing shake out in favor of the Allies? HInt: it has to do with the fact that it was a world war. Germany and Japan made some pretty serious strategic errors, such as invading Russia and attacking the United States, and those errors meant that pretty much the whole world was against them. So, find out how this worldwide alliance came together to stop the Axis expansion. All this, plus Canada finally gets the respectful treatment it deserves. Oh, and a warning: there are a few graphic images in this episode. Sensitive viewers may want to use caution, especially around the 9:15 mark.

There was no queen in WWII, that job was still taken by George VI. Back then, Elizabeth II was driving trucks in the war

Be UK and France
Hate Germany
Declare a war of aggression against Germany over the independence of Poland
Don't declare war on the USSR for occupying the other half of Poland
Bomb German civilians for no reason
Refuse all peace treaties offered by Germany
Win the war that started because you wanted to guarantee the independence of Poland
Give Poland and half of Germany to the USSR at the end of a war that you started to guarantee the independence of Poland
Import millions of 3rd world people to Europe and USA
Finally the destruction of the West is complete -
As a Canadian who gets a lot of WWII info from the states that was nice to learn.

Even if I don't like Russia, gotta love them for "claiming" supposedly 80% of all german military victims in the war. Imagine if Stalin had joined Hitler, or made a peace pact with him that Hitler didn't violate...
