Nazis Defeated

The war in Europe neared its end by the spring of 1945. The Axis powers were defeated for

several reasons: they could not wage war successfully on several fronts; Hitler underestimated

the Soviet army; the U.S. was able to produce more than the combined Axis powers; and oil

became too scarce to feed Luftwaffe planes.

Struggle for the Pacific

started a campaign of “island-hopping” that would move U.S. bases closer to Japan.

Defeat for Japan

When the Japanese showed that they would fight to the death rather than surrender, president

Truman decided to use an atomic bomb to save American lives. Two atomic bombs were

dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the Japanese surrendered.
