An encyclopedia entry about the World War II period of 1940-49 is presented. During April-June 1940, mobile German forces staged blitzkrieg attacks that conquered Denmark, Norway and the Low countries and defeated France. Air superiority was denied to Germany by the Battle of Britain. Allied leaders Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin and Franklin D. Roosevelt met in Yalta, Ukraine in February 1945 to discuss strategy and resolve political issues such as the postwar Allied occupation of Germany. Particular focus is given to the war's atrocities.
