At Stalingrad, and other battle sites around the same time, the Soviet Union had a huge advantage over the Germans in that the Red Army was prepared to deal with the harsh winter and also received support from the United States. The German's lost many men to frostbite and amputations and the Red Army was able to begin re-conquering territory.

Allies

A. The Operation Fortitude deception before the invasion kept German attention focused on the Pas de Calais, and German forces were kept in this area, away from Normandy. Prior to the invasion, few German flights took place over Britain. Overall, allies wanted to open up a new front face in France because Germany didn't have the authority to run their part of France.

Allies

B. The main reason that the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor was to try and prevent America from joining World War II for at least a few more months while they conquered the Dutch East Indies. Another minor reason for the bombing of Pearl Harbor was America's relation with China that was affecting Japan in the war.

Allies

C. "Island Hopping" helped America gain a lot of land in the Pacific. The median reason that America dropped the bomb was to end the war against Japan without sending troops out there.

The Holocaust

A. Hitler’s “Final Solution” was his plan of exterminating all Jews and other people he found undesirable in not only Germany but across Europe, making it so he ruled only over the people he felt as if were the better race.

The Holocaust

B. Jews, Gypsies, Homosexuals, and other groups the Nazis felt were undesirable were put into concentration camps. These camps held hundreds or even thousands of people, keeping them in close quarters, feeding them very little, and having them work all day and night. There were mass shootings and graves in these camps, and gas exterminations done within the concentration camps’ showers.
