But wars can also have beneficial effects on economic and technological development. In general, wars tend to accelerate technological development to adapt tools for the purpose of solving specific military needs. Later, these military tools may evolve into non-military devices

Weapons were invented that changed the course of the war, such as the B-17 Flying Fortress, the Soviet T-34 tank, the Spitfire, and Hurricane, and, of course, the atomic bomb. Inventions like synthetic rubber, the Jeep, and duct tape also helped the Allies win World War II.

These were: the lack of productivity of its war economy, the weak supply lines, the start of a war on two fronts, and the lack of strong leadership. Following the invasion of the Soviet Union, using the Blitzkrieg tactic, the German Army marched far into Russia.

These barrier troops were usually formed from ordinary military units and placed under NKVD command. 227 also stipulated the capture or shooting of “cowards” and fleeing panicked troops at the rear the blocking detachments, who in the first three months shot 1,000 penal troops and sent 24,993 to penal battalions.

US Military Casualties in World War II

During World War II, the Spanish State under Francisco Franco espoused neutrality as its official wartime policy. This neutrality wavered at times and “strict neutrality” gave way to “non-belligerence” after the Fall of France in June 1940.

June 1940

The Axis powers, originally called the Rome–Berlin Axis, was a military coalition that fought in World War II against the Allies. Benito Mussolini declared on 1 November 1936 that all other European countries would from then on rotate on the Rome–Berlin axis, thus creating the term “Axis”.

World War II, also called Second World War, conflict that involved virtually every part of the world during the years 1939–45. The principal belligerents were the Axis powers—Germany, Italy, and Japan—and the Allies—France, Great Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union, and, to a lesser extent, China

The immediate cause of World War I that made the aforementioned items come into play (alliances, imperialism, militarism, nationalism) was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary. This assassination led to Austria-Hungary declaring war on Serbia.

July 28, 1914 – Nove

One of the most significant impacts of World War One was huge advances in technology, which would transform the way that people all around the world travelled and communicated, in particular, in the years after the conflict. France only had 140 aircraft when war began, but by the end of it, it had used around 4,500

Germany had formally surrendered on November 11, 1918, and all nations had agreed to stop fighting while the terms of peace were negotiated. On June 28, 1919, Germany and the Allied Nations (including Britain, France, Italy and Russia) signed the Treaty of Versailles, formally ending the war.
