The World War 2 was s very sad. The way in which things happened were really weirs and a lot of people died and innocent people had to go through many horrible things and just because some country decided to invade and others decided to join and make it even worse. I feel that there still is many hidden things I need to learn about but this should never happen again or it will be very, very bad since now we have nuclear bombs and a lot more lethal weapons and thank god that, that war ended or if not I really don’t think that I would be here.
