Section 1: Road to War
During the 1920’s, Adolf Hitler became very popular in Germany, appealing to people’s anger and suffering.

Mein Kampf (My Struggle)
“He who wants to live must fight, and he who does not want to fight in this world, where eternal struggle is the law of life, has no right to exist.” Adolf Hitler

One Vote Changed History
Hitler promised a better life, describing a glorious future to people humiliated by losing the war. Once Hitler gained political power, he became a dictator, a person who controls their nation by force.

Benito Mussolini
Like Germans, Italians felt they had been wronged by the Treaty of Versailles. Mussolini made fascism-extreme nationalism and racism- popular in Italy.

In 1936, Mussolini sends troops to invade Ethiopia. The Ethiopian emperor, Haile Selassie begged the League of Nations of help. The League responded by banning trade in weapons and certain other materials to Italy.

Reflect for a moment…
Why do you think Mussolini would invade and take over an African country?

Japan
As European states are angry with their government’s ability to stabilize the economy, Japan became frustrated with their government as well. Japan’s military leaders rose to power and invaded Manchuria in September 1931.

Soviet Union
Joseph Stalin became the leader of the Soviet Union during the late 1920’s until March 5, 1953. He has the record of being the most murderous and and powerful dictator in human history.

Hitler established a totalitarian form of government in Germany, executing anyone he suspected of disloyalty or treason.

Pictoword
Appeasement- policy used by European leaders to avoid another war with Germany by giving Hitler what he asked for. Create a pictoword that would describe, “appeasement.” For example, esclation

1940 Election Reflection
FDR wins a third term as President, breaking the tradition set by George Washington for serving two terms only. He promised, “Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars.” How does he break his promise after the election? Should he have kept it? Why or why not?
![Page 21: World War II Chapter 26](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050819/56813058550346895d961565/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Sunday, December 7, 1941
7:55 A.M. Japanese kamikaze pilots, and subs attacked Pearl Harbor, Hawaii where 8 battleships were sunk or damaged, 350 planes destroyed, and 2,402 Americans were killed. Half of those were on the USS Arizona.

Rich man’s war, poor man’s fight?
FDR asked Congress to declare war on Japan, the Axis Powers then declare war on the U.S. for declaring war on Japan, then Congress also declares war on Germany and Italy. Who should be fighting, the leaders who declare war or the citizens of that country? Explain.

Section 3 On the Home Front
For the first time, women served in the military in clerical jobs or nurses. About 250,000 women served in the WAC (Women’s Army Corps) and WAVES Women Appointed for Volunteer Emergency Service in the Navy).

African Americans During the War
About one million African American men and women served in armed forces during the war. Most units were segregated at first but leaders begin to integrate so that by 1942 the Army is training Whites and African Americans together in officer candidate school.
The Tuskegee Airmen or the 332nd Fighter Group are credited with shooting down more than 200 enemy planes.

A United Cause
Native Americans are remembered for their service, especially at Iwo Jima where a special group of Navajo formed known as, “code talkers.” Because the Japanese were not familiar with the Navajo language, they were never able to decipher their messages.
Hispanic Americans also served in the armed forces. Because of the need for war time labor, the U. S. recruited thousands of farm and railroad workers from Mexico. Twelve Mexican Americans received the highest military medal, The Medal of Honor for their service.

Financing the war efforts

Borrowed money by selling war bonds
Corporate taxes

Citizens Sacrificing for the Cause
Family members leaving home to serve in the military all over the world.
Shortages at home to supply our military caused the gov’t to ration certain items such as gas, shoes, tires, meat and sugar.

Reflection
Write in your journal three reasons for what you think created the spirit of unity in the U.S. during this time?

Section 4 War in Europe and Africa
Allied troops were successful in the North African campaign to remove the Germans by November 1942 preventing the Germans from capturing and controlling the Suez Canal.
![Page 39: World War II Chapter 26](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050819/56813058550346895d961565/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Focus turns to Italy and Germany
Once regained, the Allied Forces can now use North Africa to set up bases in order to plan military attacks against southern Europe. By June 1944, Rome is liberated.
Air raids had begun as early as the summer of 1942 over Germany. American bombers are destroying factories and cities daily.
Although 30,000 Germans had died, they would not surrender. Why do you think the Germans kept fighting?

By mid-April 1945 the Soviets had surrounded Berlin. Hitler had taken shelter in an underground bunker finally realized he had lost, committed suicide on April 30th. Germany signed an unconditional surrender on May 7th. Allies declare May 8th Victory in Europe.

Death of FDR
Roosevelt does not live to see the surrender of Germany. He had gone to Warm Springs, Georgia to a hot springs treatment center when he suddenly died on April 12, 1945.
Vice President Harry Truman is sworn in as the new President.

The Holocaust As Allies liberated people who
had been under German control they discovered evidence of
Nazi brutality. German leaders had developed a plan called the final solution to the Jewish question by using genocide, or the killing of a group of people based on their ethnicity.

Harry Truman warns the Japanese if they did not surrender they would face, “prompt and utter destruction.”
Japan refused to surrender so Truman ordered the bomb to be used.

Reflection
Why do you think the Allied states put military officers on trial for war crimes instead of punishing the country and it’s leaders like they did after WWI?
