Answer 1

Answer 2

Answer:

"Nazi Germany conquered most of Europe and some of North Africa."

Explanation:

The beginning of the conflict is usually placed on September 1, 1939, with the German invasion of Poland, the first warlike step of Nazi Germany in its claim to found a German Third Reich on Europe, which produced the immediate declaration of war of France with most of the countries of the British Empire and the Commonwealth to the Third Reich. From the end of 1939 until the beginning of 1941, thanks to a series of brilliant military campaigns and the signing of treaties, Germany conquered or subdued much of continental Europe. Under the agreements signed between the Nazis and the Soviets, the nominally neutral Soviet Union occupied or annexed territories of the six neighboring nations with which it shared a border in the west. The United Kingdom and the Commonwealth remained the only major force capable of fighting against the Axis Powers in North Africa and in an extensive naval war. In June 1941 the European powers of the Axis began the invasion of the Soviet Union, thus beginning the most extensive land warfare operation in history, where from that moment most of the military power of the Axis was used. In December 1941, the Empire of Japan, which had been at war with China since 1937 and intended to expand its domains in Asia, attacked the United States and European possessions in the Pacific Ocean, quickly conquering much of the region.
