Q2) D-day was basically the start of the end, it’s success signalled Germany’s defeat
Q4) No, it was other factors such as Germany’s weakness and miscalculations that caused Germany’s defeat in the war. In many of the battles that took place thoughout the war, Germany was winning at the start, however, as the war dragged on, Germany started making tactical errors that led to them losing the battle and the Allies taking opportunity to fight back. We see this in the Battle of Britain where Germany had the upper hand when its Luftwaffe managed to severely damage the RAF planes but Hitler made a mistake by refocusing his attention onto civilian bombing. The allies saw this as an opportunity to recover and defeat Hitler so they took it. Therefore, because it was Hitler’s tactical error that caused his lost in the Battle Of Britain among other battles, we can conclude that Germany lost because Hitler was a bad General. ]]> 2020-06-17 00:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629740639 Zeng Wen zeng_wen https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629740761 Invasion of USSR

Q2)It was a decisive Soviet victory destruction of the German forces in the Eastern front and was the first victory of the Allied Forces, showing that the Wehrmacht was not undefeatable, giving the Allied Forces much confidence.
Q4)The USA. Because before its entry to the War in 1941, the USA was financially supporting the Allied forces by " cash and carry " "lend-lease act"etc. After its formally entry to the WW2, it contributed to the mass production of weapons with its vast resources and manpower, hence helping the Allied Forces to win.]]> 2020-06-17 00:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629743071 Dzeroun https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629744417 q1: entry of USA and d-day

Entry of the USA in 1941 
Q2. It greatly boosted the morale of the Allies as a whole as the entry of the USA meant that they would be able to obtain more and better warfare, it also meant that they stood. A higher chance against Germany. After the entry of the USA, other than the battles in USSR, USA took part in all the battles and greatly aided in the wins.
Q4. The entry of the USA was the main cause, also the catalyst of the defeat of Germany in WWII as the other factors like the battles, the participation of the Allies can be said to be the underlying cause and hence played a less important role. This was because without the entry of the USA, the Allies would not have been able to defeat Germany with a low morale and lack of warfare in some countries. The USA also sped up the “process” which led to the defeat of Germany due to their contributions which could be said were more than the other Allies.]]> 2020-06-17 00:44:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629756348 Kyanna chong_kit_yan_kyanna https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629756559 1) Entry of the USA into the war

In events such as the Battle of the Atlantic and D-Day, the USA made a big contribution, and helped the Allies win the war]]> 2020-06-17 00:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629756559 Matthew matthew_chua_wei_shi https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629758933 1) Battle of Stalingrad.
2) The battle of Stalingrad was proof for the allies that Germany could be defeated, and this gave them the confidence to further eventually defeat them.

4) No, I think Germany’s defeat was mostly brought on itself, making many bad decisions that did not help them, such as, invading the USSR and fighting a battle on two fronts, focusing on civilian bombing in London rather than trying to wipe out the RAF.]]> 2020-06-17 00:47:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629758933 Huang Yixuan https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629761310 Q1) I think the event is USA enter war 
2) USA was a very resourceful at that time, she had a strong army and weapons. As USA was known to be a strong country, the allied powers gained confidence and the axis powers lost confidence. 
4) Germany’s own weakness led to their defeat. Hitler made many bad decisions which led to many necessary lost. They had weak communication and was heavily dependent on oil. Their own weakness lead to their defeat]]> 2020-06-17 00:50:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629761310 jon tan_tzu_yuan_jon https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629764704 Q1.

D-Day liberated France and made Germany fight a two front war.
Q4. Other factors such as Germany’s poor planning. Germany over expanded by trying to take over Russia. This caused them to have to fight a war which their army was not strong enough for. This ultimately led to Germany’s defeat.

Q2 Entry of the USA into the war: The allies had a very powerful member

      D-Day: The allies was able to fight in Europe.
Q3 5 5 3 4
Q4 It was other factors such as war on two fronts.
      My Reasoning: War on two fronts prevented Nazi Germany from concentrating on a single theatre of war. While fighting with Britain in the west, Hitler also needed to fight with Soviet Union in the east and the USA. Thus, his invasion could  be defeated easily by  the allies with more support.]]> 2020-06-17 00:58:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629767438 Haoyi pang_haoyi https://padlet.com/mrterencerchia/btewq5eeyptj7s9y/wish/629768827 1) Invasion of the Soviet Union

The military supplies and contribution of troops and equipments from the USA helped the allies a lot.
