Answer:

North Africa became a key region during World War II for a simple reason. Both, the Allied forces and the Axis powers wanted to control the Suex Canal for transportation purposes. It was a strategic point for accessing the oil in the Middle East.

Answer:

Explanation:

The North African military campaigns of World War II were waged between September 13, 1940, and May 13, 1943. They were strategically important for both the Western Allies and the Axis powers. The Axis powers aimed to deprive the Allies of access to Middle Eastern oil supplies, to secure and increase Axis access to the oil, and to cut off Britain from the material and human resources of its empire in Asia and Africa.

In addition, after the disastrous defeat in western Europe in spring 1940, the North African campaign offered the Allies the opportunity to open up a new front against the Axis, and, after Germany invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, to ease German pressure on the eastern front.

Why did the Allies capture so few Japanese soldiers when they attacked Iwo Jima?
ycow [4]
As is known by history buffs and most people, the Japanese were a very honorable civilization. They worked hard to win, and when all else failed, they committed suicide. Not the type of suicide you think, no, they would "Kamikaze." This meant that all else had failed. It included the individual taking his/her life to try one last time to kill the enemy. 

I have a well-known example for you. During some major ocean operations, the Japanese would fill their planes with bombs and then dive into the ships. This was a trend with the Japanese, and the soldiers would do almost the same. 

Hope this Helps! :)
