Second World War is the most significant and most destructive conflict. On May 8^th when the war was ending, there was a grand celebration in both the USA and Britain rejoicing for the victory of Europe for the defeat of Hitler together with Nazis.

Expansion army. The number of military in during 1939 was about 174,000 army, 126400 were in the group of navy, in the Air corps army they were 26000, in Marine Corps they were 19700, and rest were placed in the coast guard. During 1945 the number of troops increased to six million where 300000 they were in the navy, 2400000 in the airforce, 484 000 in Marine Corps and finally 170000 in the coast guard. However, the USA increased the number of the army after some years, and they aimed to ensure that there will be no more war as it had killed so many people before.

The USA also provided raw materials. There was an urgent need for the raw materials since there were shortages of consumer goods, The government of the states was able to give out the requirements to satisfy their needs such as food and the water while in the fight (Rose and Edward, P 170).USA government ensured that their solder when going to war is full and that food could not be the excuse for their defeat.

USA government also introduced the Atomic bombs. During the period of war, the USA was busy creating the weapon of Atomic with the help of the Manhattan project. After the death of FDR’s, with the help of Harry Truman, American decided to drop the Atomic Bomb in some cities of Japan because they did not want to kill all people in Japan rather they had targeted specific people that they wanted them to die. Among the targets were Hiroshima and the Nagasaki to take place on August 6^th  and 9^th respectively. There was a significant impact because the two Atomic bombs in Japan killed approximate 100,000 Japanese immediately. Due to fear, in 1945, 2nd of September, the Japanese surrendered the war.

Increasing tensions, American raised the tensions to make other countries such as Japan to end the war by putting restrictions on the war item in the shipment. Here Americans were not allowed to travel on the ships of belligerent and no belligerents were permitted loans in the United States. The main aim of the USA putting that tensioning is because they wanted to make those people who were fighting to fear and hence bring the war to an end. During the war, the American allies encouraged one another; they worked together to ensures that they have defeated all their enemies. Also, the partners in the war assured that they have not given out their secrets for it could have contributed to the defeat of the separation among them. Finally the allies of American they ensured that they are working together to achieve their goals of protecting the lives of innocent people hence by defeating their enemies. The most critical allies in the Second World War include England, USA, Union of Soviet and France were main allies during the Second World War.
