Also known as WWII, the Second World War was a military conflict between the Axis (Germany, Italy and Japan) and Allied Powers (Great Britain, US and the USSR) which officially lasted from 1939 until 1945. Historians agreed that the war was a result of unsettled disputes left by the First World War (1914-1918).

Regarded as the bloodiest and largest war in history, WWII left about 75 million casualties, both civilians and military personnel. Battles were largely fought in Eastern and Western Europe, the Mediterranean, North Africa and Asia-Pacific. The end of the war marked the collapse of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Imperialist Japan. 

This is a very good class for those wishing to begin a more in-depth study of the Interwar Period or the Second World War.
