-
Hitler Invades Rhineland*
Hitler would send troops into Rhineland, not only claiming an important land, but also signifying the beginning of the growth of the German land area. -
Germany Annexes Austria
This event would signify the unification of Germany and Austria as a new alliance, and would only make Germany even stronger. -
Germans Conquer Czechoslovakia
This would also be another step in Germany's conquering of the nearby lands. -
German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact*
Hitler and Stalin sign a nonaggression pact that is supposedly to be in effect for ten years. Obviously, this isn't the case, as Hitler soon after breaks the pact. -
Hitler Invades Poland*
This event was extremely important, as it determined the "start date" of World War II. -
Battle of France*
This event is extremely important, as this would prove Germany's power and would also put the Allies at a major disadvantage. -
Battle of Britain*
This event would be extremely vital to the Allies, as it would be the first loss for Germany, which would instill a sense of hope in the Allied powers. -
Hitler Breaks Nonaggression Pact*
This pact breaking would be vital, as it would cause the USSR to switch sides, from the Axis powers to the Allied powers. -
Japanese Bombing of Pearl Harbor*
This event would be crucial, as it would accelerate the US getting involved in WWII. Without it, the US would have most likely taken a lot longer to get involved in the war. -
Bataan Death March
Hours after Pearl Harbor, Japan bombed the Philippines. After surrendering at the Bataan Peninsula, American and Filipino troops were forced to march a staggering 65 miles. -
Battle of Stalingrad*
This event would be very important, as it would be Germany's first "surrender", and it would also be (arguably) the bloodiest battle in world history. -
D-Day*
This would be important, as this would be the beginning of the downfall for the Axis powers. -
Hiroshima and Nagasaki*
These would be crucial, if not the most crucial, events in WWII. These would be the damage causers that would make Japan, the last Axis Power, recede from the war.
