Answer:The Great Patriotic War is a term used in Russia and other former republics of the Soviet Union to describe the conflict fought along the many fronts of the Eastern Front of World War II, primarily between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. This conflict started in 1941 when the renewal of the German offensive; The Battle of Stalingrad begins; The defense of the Caucasus. This conflict began to escalate in 1942. Notes sent by V.M. Molotov, People's Commisar for Foreign Affairs to all governments with which the USSR has diplomatic relations was one event that created tension between Germany and Russia.In the same year novels like <u>The Soviet Fighting Forces</u> started becoming more popular among USSR advocates. Knowledge is power and Germany and Russia's people knew this that is why, many stories were created alongside this conflict in both Germany and Russia. Many speeches took place in this period like "A Just War" by Klavdia Nikolaeva in this speech Nikolaeva brought people together and raised the morale of the Soviet people and encouraged them by making Germans out to be weak and reminded the Soviet people that they are strong willed and will not be taken down. Stalin also kept his people informed throughout this conflict with stats he wrote about like, "As a result of two months of offensive engagements, the Red Army has broken through the defences of the German-fascist troops on a wide front, routed 102 enemy divisions, captured over 200,000 prisoners, 13,000 guns and a large quantity of their war material, and advanced about 400 kilometres (250 miles). Our troops have won an important victory. The offensive of our troops continues" ( Stalin). These stats continued throughout the engagement. Then in 1943 the turning point was made when there was the Victory at Stalingrad and The Battle of Kursk. These led to liberations of Smolensk, Khrakov, Donbass, and Eastern Ukraine and Belorussia. In 1944, there was the counterattack when The Red Army's drive into Eastern Europe and Germany. This led to Liberation of the Baltic states; The seige of Leningrad is lifted; Liberation of the Russian Federation. Finally, in 1945 the Yalta Confrence took place and created the fall of Berlin.
