İkinci Dünya Savaşı Tarihi

In 1919, with the signing of the Versailles Peace Treaty, which ended the First World War, the wish that the four years of destruction left behind would be remembered as "the war to end all wars" and that civilization would never again surrender to such a destructive madness was engraved in minds all over the world. However, just twenty years later, a second global war broke out, far surpassing the years 1914-18 in scale, horror and destructiveness. The revolutionary radicalism into which Germany and Russia, who were defeated in the First World War, were thrown into; the aggressive revisionism of Italy and Japan, who thought they were treated unfairly despite being on the victorious side; The militant nationalist or socialist ideologies that were unleashed after the 1929 economic crisis that shook the whole world and the collapse of empires made this disaster almost inevitable. As a result of the total war approach, weapons of mass destruction and strategies, and totalitarian governments that emerged in the first war, when the guns fell silent in 1945, more than 60 million people, corresponding to approximately three percent of the world's population, had died. This was the deadliest war in history.
