World War II

This is an essay about World War II (W.W.II) and I'm going to tell you about how the war started, Allied forces, and the German-Italy-Japan forces. Hope you enjoy.

France and England signed a treaty with Poland, and if Poland were to be attacked by Germans, France and England were to protect them. So, what do you know. Poland gets attacked so France and England declare war against Germany. The Americans warned Japan to stop taking over countries but Japan didn't listen, so America cut off trade.

Japan bombed America so now America is in the war. They joined forces with France, England, and all the other countries.

The Germans still wouldn't give up. President Roosevelt died and left Truman with a decision for the war. Scientists just made a bomb called the atomic bomb and said it would make them surrender for sure. Well, they did surrender but after two bombs and they killed about 120,000 people and that's how the war ended.

And that is what I have to tell you about WWII.
