Unit I: WWII
Economic conditions in Europe and Russia following the end of WWI and the Russian Revolution were devastating. Joseph Stalin in the Soviet Union, Adolf Hitler in Germany, and (to a lesser extent) Benito Mussolini in Italy each took actions to revitalize their countries. These actions would result in further devastation and vast destruction. The prevailing mood in the United States during the 1930's was isolationist as Americans coped with the economic crisis of the depression. But when Japanese forces struck Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the United States could remain neutral no longer.
