1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,259
so in this new video what we are going to see is a development of the world we

2
00:00:04,259 --> 00:00:07,440
are going to see the different phases of the world but now using the PowerPoint

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:11,699
okay you have the other video explaining the world using the map the interactive

4
00:00:11,699 --> 00:00:16,920
map now we are going to explain the Second World War using the PowerPoint so

5
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:22,859
the thing is as you know as you have seen in in the map or on the map sorry

6
00:00:22,859 --> 00:00:26,579
your what you have seen is that in the beginning in the beginning of the world

7
00:00:26,579 --> 00:00:30,359
what we are going to have is the Axis victories, no? Las victorias del eje, okay?

8
00:00:30,359 --> 00:00:36,299
It means the victories of Italy, of Germany, and Japan. So in the beginning, until 1942, more or less,

9
00:00:36,299 --> 00:00:41,159
what we are going to have is the victories of the Axis. It means France is going to be

10
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:44,700
overcome,

11
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,159
they are going to take over Germany,

12
00:00:47,740 --> 00:00:50,560
France, and they are going to attack Great Britain,

13
00:00:51,340 --> 00:00:53,579
that is going to resist a heavy

14
00:00:53,579 --> 00:01:00,119
attack so the idea is Poland is going to be invaded in three weeks okay remember

15
00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:07,519
that this invasion of Poland is going to start the September the 3rd of 1939 and

16
00:01:07,519 --> 00:01:13,140
Poland is going to be invaded in three weeks if you remember they are going to

17
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:21,599
use the lightning war the blitzkrieg okay that means to attack using quick

18
00:01:21,599 --> 00:01:28,319
movements and using surprise attacks and also they are going to use armor

19
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,680
divisions along with soldiers so the idea is they are going to move tanks

20
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:37,959
along with some soldiers on the sides or behind and they are going to be they are

21
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,359
going to move really fast so the idea is they want to move they want to conquer

22
00:01:42,359 --> 00:01:50,200
Europe fast they do they want to conquer Europe fast because they thought that

23
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:56,019
that was the best way in order to not let the enemies prepare for the war okay

24
00:01:56,019 --> 00:02:05,079
so the idea is to attack and carry out surprise surprising attacks in order to

25
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:11,080
to not let the enemies to prepare in order to defend their territories so

26
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,639
remember the Nazi Soviet pact this Nazi Soviet pact is the base for this

27
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,259
division of Poland in two sides the western side controlled by Germany and

28
00:02:20,259 --> 00:02:24,460
the eastern side controlled by the Soviet Union and Germany is going to

29
00:02:24,460 --> 00:02:27,879
invade Poland in three weeks only in three weeks okay they are going to

30
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:31,960
attack and they are going to conquer this territory in three weeks they are

31
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:37,300
going to do it really fast and they are going to use this lightning war okay the

32
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:41,379
lightning war or blitzkrieg the guerrilla power okay it's called

33
00:02:41,379 --> 00:02:44,860
guerrilla power because it's really fast okay so they are going to use this

34
00:02:44,860 --> 00:02:50,500
armored divisions it means tanks plus infantry and a strong aerial support it

35
00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:56,259
means we are going to use the tanks we are going to have this moto these

36
00:02:56,259 --> 00:03:00,639
motorbikes we are going to have these soldiers they are going to move fast

37
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:06,560
along with the tanks and what they want is to quickly take the different cities

38
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,240
and conquer the country okay so that's the idea they are going to fight

39
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:17,719
together the tanks along with the infantry and also the area support that

40
00:03:17,719 --> 00:03:22,939
is really really important so this type of war is based on what surprise attacks

41
00:03:22,939 --> 00:03:27,860
and quick advances so the idea is we want to move fast because we don't want

42
00:03:27,860 --> 00:03:33,099
the enemy to have the chance to attack us it means si atacamos alguien por la

43
00:03:33,099 --> 00:03:37,199
espalda no se ha preparado y podemos derrotarle the same idea the idea is a

44
00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:42,120
surprise attack in order to move quick in order moving fast or moving fast in

45
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:51,599
order to not let these these enemies to react to attack back to to the Germans

46
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:56,939
okay so this is crucial this idea of blitzkrieg of lightning war or guerra

47
00:03:56,939 --> 00:04:02,159
relámpago is crucial okay so remember this lightning war is based on armor

48
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:06,240
divisions means tanks plus infantry and also surprise attacks and quick

49
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:13,400
advances in 1940 Germany is going to invade most of Western Europe due to

50
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:18,560
this strategy they are going to invade Denmark remember the map Norway the

51
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:23,819
Netherlands Belgium and Northern and Western France so the idea is in 1940

52
00:04:23,819 --> 00:04:29,860
they are going to invade at the end of 1939 Western Poland and then they

53
00:04:29,860 --> 00:04:33,860
are going to attack Denmark, Norway, France, Belgium and the Netherlands they

54
00:04:33,860 --> 00:04:39,980
are going to conquer all these territories in less than a year okay in

55
00:04:39,980 --> 00:04:44,240
1940 okay in less than a year they are going to conquer all these territories

56
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:49,459
remember this region here in France is going to be the France of Vichy that is

57
00:04:49,459 --> 00:04:58,329
going to be controlled by the general Petain so the unique country that is

58
00:04:58,329 --> 00:05:01,750
going to resist the attack is going to be Great Britain as you can see France

59
00:05:01,750 --> 00:05:11,310
has fallen and the Soviet Union is not participating in the war due to the Nazi-Soviet pact.

60
00:05:11,310 --> 00:05:16,970
So the idea is Great Britain is going to resist the attack and this attack or this fight is

61
00:05:16,970 --> 00:05:19,569
going to be called the Battle of Britain.

62
00:05:19,569 --> 00:05:25,470
It means Great Britain is going to resist the German attack and this fight is going

63
00:05:25,470 --> 00:05:28,649
to be called Battle of Britain.

64
00:05:28,649 --> 00:05:37,269
the Luftwaffe, it means the airplanes, the air force, the German air force, the Nazi

65
00:05:37,269 --> 00:05:42,889
air force is going to attack, is going to bomb all these regions, London, the different

66
00:05:42,889 --> 00:05:49,050
cities in the coast, and they want to invade Great Britain, the idea is to defeat the United

67
00:05:49,050 --> 00:05:58,490
Kingdom and invade the United Kingdom, Dunkirk, the movie is talking about this battle,

68
00:05:58,490 --> 00:06:05,569
before this battle, so the idea is the Luftwaffe, it means the air force

69
00:06:05,569 --> 00:06:10,189
the Nazi air force is going to bomb the British ports and cities in order to

70
00:06:10,189 --> 00:06:13,970
prepare the Great Britain for the assault, the idea is we are going to bomb

71
00:06:13,970 --> 00:06:20,189
the different cities and then we will invade Great Britain, so that's the idea

72
00:06:20,189 --> 00:06:26,689
we are going to bomb the cities and we are going to prepare for launching

73
00:06:26,689 --> 00:06:32,550
the attack, the invasion.

74
00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:38,370
This is the Luftwaffe, as I said the Nazi air force.

75
00:06:38,370 --> 00:06:53,189
These are the data, this is the British planes lost during the months of the battle of Britain,

76
00:06:53,189 --> 00:06:55,089
as well as the German ones.

77
00:06:55,089 --> 00:06:59,329
this is the data the German data and these are the British data of course the

78
00:06:59,329 --> 00:07:05,329
British are saying that they have destroyed more planes than the Germans

79
00:07:05,329 --> 00:07:09,009
are saying it means if you are German you want to say okay we didn't lose that

80
00:07:09,009 --> 00:07:12,529
much but the British are going to say of course they are the enemies they are

81
00:07:12,529 --> 00:07:19,149
going to say okay we have a destroyed most of the planes okay if you check

82
00:07:19,149 --> 00:07:23,949
here what you see is the the number of deaths and injured people during this

83
00:07:23,949 --> 00:07:29,050
bombing attacks okay they are civilians okay so as you can see they are going to

84
00:07:29,050 --> 00:07:34,569
move they are going to they are going to be really high in the beginning they are

85
00:07:34,569 --> 00:07:42,610
going to tend to decrease later on the problem is Great Britain is going to

86
00:07:42,610 --> 00:07:46,589
resist what I explained on the map so the idea is Great Britain is going to

87
00:07:46,589 --> 00:07:50,790
resist so Hitler is going to decide to abort the mission the abort the mission

88
00:07:50,790 --> 00:07:57,529
of invading the islands so he is going to decide to do the same as Napoleon

89
00:07:57,529 --> 00:08:02,490
Let's establish a blockade against the British islands

90
00:08:02,490 --> 00:08:05,509
Let's try to end with the British economy

91
00:08:05,509 --> 00:08:11,029
And this blockade and the battle against Great Britain using this blockade

92
00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:14,589
This strategy is going to be called Battle of the Atlantic

93
00:08:14,589 --> 00:08:22,170
So Battle of Britain is the attack of Germany in order to conquest and invade Great Britain

94
00:08:22,170 --> 00:08:27,069
After this battle that is going to fail because Great Britain is going to resist

95
00:08:27,069 --> 00:08:32,889
Hitler is going to decide to order the blockade of the British Islands

96
00:08:32,889 --> 00:08:35,529
And this is going to be called the Battle of the Atlantic

97
00:08:35,529 --> 00:08:38,669
How they are going to develop this blockade?

98
00:08:39,149 --> 00:08:40,570
Using submarines

99
00:08:40,570 --> 00:08:44,169
So the idea is they are going to use submarines in the Atlantic Ocean

100
00:08:44,169 --> 00:08:45,730
Also part of Africa

101
00:08:45,730 --> 00:08:50,490
If you check the map, you can see in purple and pink

102
00:08:50,490 --> 00:08:54,289
The regions that they are going to be under the Axis control

103
00:08:54,289 --> 00:08:56,610
This is the Japanese Empire

104
00:08:56,610 --> 00:09:05,090
and this is the territories controlled by Germany and Italy. You see here

105
00:09:05,090 --> 00:09:10,049
Francia and Vichy, this is the France of Vichy, that is under control of

106
00:09:10,049 --> 00:09:16,129
the General Petain. So this is the blockade, Great Britain is going to

107
00:09:16,129 --> 00:09:21,009
resist so they are going to try to end with the British economy, how? Sinking all

108
00:09:21,009 --> 00:09:30,450
the ships that they could try to help Great Britain. And also what we are going

109
00:09:30,450 --> 00:09:36,049
see is not only the blockade but the nazis are going to intervene in the mediterranean

110
00:09:36,049 --> 00:09:42,850
in the mediterranean why they are going to uh intervene in the mediterranean okay so the thing

111
00:09:42,850 --> 00:09:51,090
is the italians are going to attack egypt okay from libya libya was a an italian colony so as

112
00:09:51,090 --> 00:09:57,250
you can as you saw in on the map they attack albania first they tried to invade greece but

113
00:09:57,250 --> 00:10:03,809
they couldn't so that the Nazis need to intervene and conquer Yugoslavia and Greece so what is

114
00:10:05,169 --> 00:10:08,690
what is going to happen in northern Africa is almost the same

115
00:10:11,250 --> 00:10:15,570
the Italians are going to attack Egypt they are going to attack Egypt from

116
00:10:15,570 --> 00:10:21,730
Libya but the problem is they are going to be defeated by the British so that Hitler decided

117
00:10:21,730 --> 00:10:28,029
to send one of his best generals Rommel he is going to be called El Zorro del

118
00:10:28,029 --> 00:10:32,649
Desierto and they are going to call him that because he is going to almost

119
00:10:32,649 --> 00:10:39,309
conquer Egypt okay he is going to defeat the British he is going to defeat the

120
00:10:39,309 --> 00:10:50,059
French and he is going to almost conquer Egypt okay here is Rommel and here is the

121
00:10:50,059 --> 00:10:56,159
situation in the map this is Libya Libya was under control of Italy so Italy is

122
00:10:56,159 --> 00:11:00,440
going to attack Egypt the problem is Italy is not is not going to be able to

123
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,659
defeat the British so that Germany is going to send Rommel to Libya and Rommel

124
00:11:05,659 --> 00:11:13,299
is going to start conquering Egypt as well as some the idea of Hitler was to

125
00:11:13,299 --> 00:11:19,519
attack India remember is a British colony as well as the Japanese are

126
00:11:19,519 --> 00:11:25,539
supposed to attack India from the east so the idea is the Germans will attack

127
00:11:25,539 --> 00:11:30,980
India from the west and the Japanese from the east but now we are talking

128
00:11:30,980 --> 00:11:36,639
about this Libya the the Italian Libya you see the the colon is controlled by

129
00:11:36,639 --> 00:11:41,759
the France officially so Libya is going to from Libya Italy is going to attack

130
00:11:41,759 --> 00:11:46,399
Egypt they are going to be defeated so that Hitler is going to send Rommel in

131
00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:54,899
order to conquer Egypt and in order to stop the advance of the British in

132
00:11:54,899 --> 00:12:00,220
Northern Africa. Of course, Rommel is going to succeed in the beginning.

133
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:06,860
Remember, we are talking about until 1942. After 1942 the situation is going to

134
00:12:06,860 --> 00:12:13,759
change, okay? Yugoslavia and Greece is going to fall in April 1941, okay?

135
00:12:13,759 --> 00:12:23,559
Remember that Greece and Yugoslavia, we have talked about that, Italy trying to conquer Greece, they couldn't, so Germany needs to intervene.

136
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:31,879
So the intervention of Germany in Yugoslavia, Greece and Northern Africa is based on the failure of Italy.

137
00:12:31,879 --> 00:12:39,179
It means Italy is the weakest ally of Germany and due to the actions of Italy

138
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,500
Germany needs to intervene in northern Africa and needs to intervene in

139
00:12:46,220 --> 00:12:48,000
Yugoslavia and Greece

140
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:57,309
So you can see here the map the idea is you see here Rommel the Africa corpse with Rommel going to Libya March

141
00:12:58,230 --> 00:13:01,250
1941 April 1941 they are going to conquer

142
00:13:01,950 --> 00:13:03,629
Yugoslavia and Greece

143
00:13:03,629 --> 00:13:10,250
The idea is that Italy is useless. Italy does not manage to conquer Greece, it manages to conquer Albania, but it does not manage to conquer Greece.

144
00:13:10,429 --> 00:13:15,110
Therefore, from there, Germany intervenes, conquering Yugoslavia and Greece.

145
00:13:16,029 --> 00:13:18,509
Nor does Italy manage to have success in North Africa.

146
00:13:18,769 --> 00:13:24,350
Therefore, Germany is forced to send Rommel to defeat the Britannians.

147
00:13:27,460 --> 00:13:31,200
So, what is Hitler's mistake? The most important mistake.

148
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:41,940
the greatest mistake Hitler's mistake is going to be is going to be the to attack Russia okay

149
00:13:41,940 --> 00:13:49,139
in June 1941 remember in March they attack in northern Africa in April they conquered

150
00:13:49,139 --> 00:13:55,620
Yugoslavia and Greece and now in June in the same year 1941 Hitler is going to launch the

151
00:13:55,620 --> 00:14:02,340
the operation operation Barbarossa operation Barbarossa they are going to

152
00:14:02,340 --> 00:14:09,240
attack Russia and they are going to quickly reach Moscow and said and said

153
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:17,159
Leningrad or besieged Leningrad so the idea is in June this is March this is

154
00:14:17,159 --> 00:14:21,960
April and in June they are going to attack the Soviet Union remember the

155
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:28,500
soviet union is the enemy of germany the soviet union is communist okay so the idea is they are

156
00:14:28,500 --> 00:14:32,860
going to attack the soviet union and they are going to conquer all this territory really really

157
00:14:32,860 --> 00:14:38,200
fast the problem is they are going they are not going to reach moscow they are going to besiege

158
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:46,019
leningrad and they are going to be stopped here in stalingrad okay remember this battle we are

159
00:14:46,019 --> 00:14:52,820
to talk about it is more than six months from july till february 1943 okay almost six months

160
00:14:53,539 --> 00:15:01,539
fighting in a city imagine that six months fighting in a city only that okay and after

161
00:15:01,539 --> 00:15:07,379
this battle the war is not over after this battle the soviet union is going to advance but needs to

162
00:15:07,379 --> 00:15:15,009
fight against the germans so this is the advance as you can see leningrad is here moscow is here

163
00:15:15,009 --> 00:15:21,009
and stalingrad is here stalingrad is going to be the most important battle in the second world war

164
00:15:21,649 --> 00:15:29,230
they couldn't reach moscow and they are going to besiege leningrad the soviet union of course as

165
00:15:29,230 --> 00:15:35,470
it was attacked by germany they are going to join the allied forces it means they are going to ally

166
00:15:35,470 --> 00:15:42,669
great britain france etc okay the soviet union is not in the world yet we are talking about

167
00:15:42,669 --> 00:16:00,620
June 1941, I will say it, the USA is going to join in 1942, early 1942, so as well as

168
00:16:00,620 --> 00:16:06,179
Hitler is going to make a mistake, Japan is going to make another, what is the Japanese

169
00:16:06,179 --> 00:16:13,960
mistake, so is to attack Hawaii, is to attack Pearl Harbor, so this is the map, this is

170
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:22,019
the Japanese Empire, as you can see they are controlling most of Eastern Asia, they are

171
00:16:22,019 --> 00:16:28,320
controlling Manchuria, that is now called Manchukuo, they are controlling part of China,

172
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:34,379
they are controlling the French Indochina, Burma, Thailand, they are controlling Indonesia,

173
00:16:34,379 --> 00:16:39,460
they are controlling all these islands, the Philippines, ok, and what you can see is here

174
00:16:39,460 --> 00:16:45,159
is Hawaii here is Pearl Harbor okay what is the problem Japan is going to decide

175
00:16:45,159 --> 00:16:50,799
to attack Hawaii why Japan is going to attack to Hawaii why Japan is going to

176
00:16:50,799 --> 00:16:59,059
attack the USA Japan is going to decide that in order to defeat the USA the only

177
00:16:59,059 --> 00:17:04,900
option the unique option they have only one chance at that chance is to or that

178
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:11,779
option is to attack first so they believe that if they attack first Hawaii

179
00:17:11,779 --> 00:17:18,380
they could make they could end with the American fleet and after that they will

180
00:17:18,380 --> 00:17:24,220
have the advantage in order to prevent another attack another American attack

181
00:17:24,220 --> 00:17:32,319
what is the problem when the Japanese Air Force attack an army attack Pearl

182
00:17:32,319 --> 00:17:41,319
harbor not all the fleet was in Pearl Harbor most of it was in Midway so that

183
00:17:41,319 --> 00:17:48,880
they couldn't reach their goal and the USA enter war after that Japan is going

184
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:56,640
to fight here island by island against the Americans okay so the idea is Japan

185
00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,660
is going to attack Pearl Harbor in Hawaii because he thought they thought

186
00:18:00,660 --> 00:18:09,480
that the unique option they had in order to defeat the USA was to attack first

187
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:17,700
was to end with the to end with the American fleet since the very beginning

188
00:18:17,700 --> 00:18:23,759
okay so that's the idea they are going to attack Hawaii and they expect to end

189
00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:29,400
with the American fleet so that they will have time enough to prepare the war

190
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:35,000
against the USA the problem is the USA is not going to have all the fleet in

191
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,940
Hawaii part of it is going to be midway and they are going to react they are

192
00:18:38,940 --> 00:18:45,180
going to attack back they are going to answer okay and they are going to start

193
00:18:45,180 --> 00:18:49,920
fighting island by island Japanese and American people and American soldiers

194
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:58,599
are going to be fighting island by island one each other so this is the

195
00:18:58,599 --> 00:19:03,220
attack this is the here is the fleet so what you are going to see is they are

196
00:19:03,220 --> 00:19:09,640
going to attack this Rio here is far from Japan and these are the movements

197
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:20,680
of the different planes these are the areas under Japanese control as you can

198
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:31,940
see Hawaii is here but they are controlling most of Asia and well this

199
00:19:31,940 --> 00:19:36,859
is again Avetema with expansion the highest expansion of the of the

200
00:19:36,859 --> 00:19:40,279
Americans as you can see the Americans are going to answer and they are going

201
00:19:40,279 --> 00:19:45,440
to answer into they are going to fight the Japanese in two different places a

202
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:51,819
naval attack okay another attack in the in midway and the other one is going to

203
00:19:51,819 --> 00:19:57,079
be in Guadalcanal that is an island here so the Americans are going to attack

204
00:19:57,079 --> 00:20:01,319
here in midway and they are going to attack here in Guadalcanal okay so the

205
00:20:01,319 --> 00:20:06,339
idea is they are going to prepare two different armies two different american armies one is going

206
00:20:06,339 --> 00:20:10,940
to attack in midway and is going to advance through these islands to attack japan the other

207
00:20:10,940 --> 00:20:18,440
one is advanced from in the solomon islands okay these are the solomon islands to conquer new guinea

208
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:25,000
and then to attack manila to attack the philippines in order to attack later on japan so the idea is

209
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:33,000
attack Japan from two sides okay one side here the other side here okay

210
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:40,140
remember if you want to bomb Tokyo you need islands where from from where the

211
00:20:40,140 --> 00:20:46,059
the different planes are going to are going to attack the the the Japanese

212
00:20:46,059 --> 00:20:50,079
territory in order to do that you need to conquer these islands okay they cannot

213
00:20:50,079 --> 00:20:53,980
attack directly they need to go island by island okay because they need these

214
00:20:53,980 --> 00:21:02,700
islands in order to attack the main the main japanese archipelago here what you have is a

215
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:10,380
youtube video is uh is extracted from from the from the film from the movie per harbor and you

216
00:21:10,380 --> 00:21:16,059
have there the minutes of the japanese attack if you want to see how was the the japanese attack

217
00:21:16,059 --> 00:21:24,009
please click on this video and you'll see the japanese attack the thing is until 1942

218
00:21:24,009 --> 00:21:32,329
as we have seen the Axis is having the advantage, it means Germany has almost conquered the whole

219
00:21:32,329 --> 00:21:40,569
European continent, Italy has been defeated but still an ally of Germany and they are fighting

220
00:21:40,569 --> 00:21:50,170
along with the Germans in Northern Africa and in Egypt and also in Eastern Europe they conquered

221
00:21:50,170 --> 00:21:55,049
Yugoslavia and Greece and now what we are going and also Japan that has attack

222
00:21:55,049 --> 00:22:00,069
Pearl Harbor so now what we have is the allied offensive it means how the allies

223
00:22:00,069 --> 00:22:05,789
are going to react and how the allies are going to finally start defeating the

224
00:22:05,789 --> 00:22:12,789
Axis so the turning point is this when the US and the Soviet Union enter war it

225
00:22:12,789 --> 00:22:20,990
It means June 1941, January 1942, ok?

226
00:22:20,990 --> 00:22:26,170
So the US is going to join the war due to the attack to Pearl Harbor, the Pearl Harbor

227
00:22:26,170 --> 00:22:30,690
attack, so the Americans are going to stop the Japanese advances in the Pacific, where

228
00:22:30,690 --> 00:22:34,690
Battle of Guadalcanal and Midway, what I have already explained.

229
00:22:34,690 --> 00:22:37,950
Remember here is Midway, remember here is Guadalcanal.

230
00:22:37,950 --> 00:22:41,710
The idea is to attack Japan from these islands.

231
00:22:41,710 --> 00:22:47,109
The idea is to liberate these islands, to liberate the Philippines that used to be American

232
00:22:47,109 --> 00:22:50,359
and then attack Japan.

233
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:54,819
So here is the island of Guadalcanal that is part of the Somalaman Islands.

234
00:22:54,819 --> 00:23:00,799
If we zoom in here what we see is Guadalcanal is really small.

235
00:23:00,799 --> 00:23:05,480
Careful because the battles here in order to conquer these small islands is going to

236
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:12,119
last more than six months okay the battle of midway is going to be faster but these ones

237
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:20,829
are going to be a slow advance so they need to land okay and they are going to start dying in

238
00:23:20,829 --> 00:23:29,579
the different beaches so they started to reconquer this territory but they are going to lose a lot of

239
00:23:29,579 --> 00:23:35,180
soldiers okay the idea is they are going to advance from midway to these different islands

240
00:23:35,180 --> 00:23:44,619
the Carolinas, the Marianas in order to attack from these islands or Okinawa to attack Japan.

241
00:23:44,619 --> 00:23:49,579
The other one is to attack Guadalcanal and advance to New Guinea and then the Philippines

242
00:23:49,579 --> 00:23:54,500
and Borneo.

243
00:23:54,500 --> 00:23:57,220
In the same way the UK is going to react.

244
00:23:57,220 --> 00:24:02,960
The same way the Germans are going to be defeated finally in Northern Africa.

245
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:08,119
The battle is called El Alamein because it's the region, the area where this battle is

246
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:13,440
going to take place okay the idea is Egypt is going to be almost conquered by

247
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:18,599
the Germans but in this specific place in an Alamein Rommel is going to be

248
00:24:18,599 --> 00:24:27,180
defeated by the British and the by the British sorry so Rommel with the Italian

249
00:24:27,180 --> 00:24:34,299
and German forces are going to be defeated by the British let's see the

250
00:24:34,299 --> 00:24:39,579
map here are the italians here are the nazis and what you see is the british but not only the

251
00:24:39,579 --> 00:24:46,380
british you have greeks you have french people you have indian people you have a people from

252
00:24:46,380 --> 00:24:53,099
australia or the different colonies okay so the idea is all together are going to start defeating

253
00:24:53,099 --> 00:25:00,859
the italians are the germans and finally romell is going to be defeated okay romell is going to

254
00:25:00,859 --> 00:25:11,680
be defeated in 1943 so that here libya is going to be conquered by the british and also the americans

255
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:18,079
and the british are going to land here in northern africa in order to attack tunisia in order

256
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:26,559
to defeat the germans here to attack sicily and italy remember italy is the weakest

257
00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:34,079
is the weakest ally of France so the idea is they are going to attack Italy or they are going to

258
00:25:34,079 --> 00:25:39,319
attack Tunisia in this case from two sides the western side that they are Americans and British

259
00:25:39,319 --> 00:25:44,980
and from the eastern side the British along with the people from the colonies in order to conquer

260
00:25:44,980 --> 00:25:53,220
Tunisia and attack Sicily and Italy so the Americans led by Eisenhower this is the this is

261
00:25:53,220 --> 00:26:01,819
the general he will be a president of the u.s in the 50s so the americans landed in french africa

262
00:26:01,819 --> 00:26:09,660
and conquered tunisia may 1493 after the british and america after that sorry the british and

263
00:26:09,660 --> 00:26:15,519
americans attacked sicily and italy what i said they are going to conquer tunisia okay may 1493

264
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:19,900
while the British have defeated Rommel here in Libya

265
00:26:19,900 --> 00:26:24,200
so they are going to support the attack to Tunisia

266
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,160
and then Sicily and Italy

267
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,160
the idea is Western attack is going to be

268
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,039
American, British and French

269
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:34,339
and the Eastern attack is going to be

270
00:26:34,339 --> 00:26:36,480
Russian attack

271
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:44,920
and finally if you have seen

272
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,000
we are talking about the Allied offensive

273
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,859
we have seen this American offensive

274
00:26:48,859 --> 00:26:49,819
the UK offensive

275
00:26:49,819 --> 00:26:57,440
and now the soviet union offensive we have the battle of stalingrad as i said almost six more

276
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:03,720
than six months fighting in this city in the city of stalingrad the russians finally are going to

277
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:09,900
defeat the germans okay and this is the moment when the so the the the russians the communists

278
00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:19,640
are going to start reconquering or conquering eastern europe so that's the idea after stalingrad

279
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:26,099
okay after more than six months fighting here they are going to move forward and they are going to

280
00:27:26,099 --> 00:27:33,559
start defeating the germans in eastern europe please do not think to the that defeating that

281
00:27:33,559 --> 00:27:41,880
to defeat the the germans was something easy a lot of casualties the russians are going to suffer

282
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:50,039
a lot of casualties. The country that is going to have the most casualties is going to be

283
00:27:51,079 --> 00:27:58,680
the Soviet Union. So here is the Battle of Stalingrad, some pictures. They are fighting

284
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:07,400
in the city, the city is going to be devastated after the battle. You see here the communist flag,

285
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:13,960
they are fighting in the city and after six months the city is going to be under soviet control

286
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:20,359
they are going to take back ukraine and they are going to end with the siege of

287
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:31,480
Leningrad in january 1944. the siege started in june 1941 almost three years of siege

288
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:41,920
900 days of siege so the idea is due to this victory against the Germans in the

289
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:49,000
battle of Stalingrad in the battle of Stalingrad the Russians are going to be

290
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:55,180
able to take back Ukraine and to end with the siege of Leningrad so that's the

291
00:28:55,180 --> 00:28:59,740
idea this is here is Leningrad okay in 1944 they end with the siege and they

292
00:28:59,740 --> 00:29:08,400
are going to move forward they are going to take back ukraine that is region here as you can see

293
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:17,200
here is ukraine here is leningrad this is the advance of the of the germans in in june 1941

294
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:23,200
but the russians are going to move in after the battle of stalingrad here they are going to move

295
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:28,400
in 1943 okay and they are going to end with the siege of leningrad and they are going to

296
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:35,329
start conquering Eastern Europe the final assault the final assault in

297
00:29:35,329 --> 00:29:39,750
Western Europe is going to be led by the British the Americans and the French

298
00:29:39,750 --> 00:29:44,170
okay in Normandy they are going to they are going to be they are going to land

299
00:29:44,170 --> 00:29:49,710
the British and American troops in June 1944 okay remember January 1944 is when

300
00:29:49,710 --> 00:29:55,730
they ended with the siege of Leningrad so almost six five months later they are

301
00:29:55,730 --> 00:30:01,710
are going to start the Normandy landings okay it's really important this Normandy

302
00:30:01,710 --> 00:30:09,650
landings because what they are going to do they are going to open a new front

303
00:30:09,650 --> 00:30:15,009
okay they are going to attack here remember they the troops are attacking

304
00:30:15,009 --> 00:30:20,869
in Italy okay remember the map and they are going to attack now here so the idea

305
00:30:20,869 --> 00:30:25,309
is to conquer Western Europe why Eastern Europe is conquered by the communist is

306
00:30:25,309 --> 00:30:31,910
liberated by the communists these are the name of the different beaches Utah

307
00:30:31,910 --> 00:30:38,630
Omaha gold Juno and sword this is the most of the soldiers the nationality of

308
00:30:38,630 --> 00:30:45,529
most of the soldiers Americans Canadian Canadian and British one interesting

309
00:30:45,529 --> 00:30:52,250
fact is that there were Spanish people fighting here this Spanish people were

310
00:30:52,250 --> 00:30:57,369
Republicans they fought in the Spanish Civil War in favor of the Republic

311
00:30:57,369 --> 00:31:02,569
against Franco and they are now fighting along with these people in order to end

312
00:31:02,569 --> 00:31:10,470
with the Nazis remember for them Franco Hitler and Mussolini are the same okay

313
00:31:10,470 --> 00:31:17,470
and in so and to some extent they are the same so these are the Normandy

314
00:31:17,470 --> 00:31:22,670
landings as you can see they need to reach the beach and then they are going

315
00:31:22,670 --> 00:31:30,710
to land and start fighting and start dying of course so sorry for this for

316
00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:34,289
this for the photograph that you cannot see you you have in that photograph

317
00:31:34,289 --> 00:31:41,990
people dead on the beaches so after this Normandy landings the the Allies are

318
00:31:41,990 --> 00:31:46,049
going to start liberating France and occupy part of Germany remember the

319
00:31:46,049 --> 00:31:51,049
western part of Germany okay so they are going to advance northern from Italy and

320
00:31:51,049 --> 00:31:58,509
And they are going to attack here in Normandy and they are going to liberate France and move to conquer to liberate Germany

321
00:31:58,849 --> 00:32:05,410
While the Soviet Union is advances in is advanced advancing in Eastern Europe

322
00:32:06,769 --> 00:32:12,150
In Eastern Europe, what is going to happen is just the Soviet Union is going to live in Poland Romania Bulgaria, okay

323
00:32:13,049 --> 00:32:20,049
Poland is here Romania Bulgaria, etc is moving a forward until they are going to reach Berlin

324
00:32:20,049 --> 00:32:26,049
when is going to end everything in the moment that Hitler committed suicide the

325
00:32:26,049 --> 00:32:33,970
30th of April and in 8th May the Germans are going to surrender this is the end

326
00:32:33,970 --> 00:32:39,910
of the war but is the end of the war in Europe not the end of the complete war

327
00:32:39,910 --> 00:32:46,809
okay the war is not ended because there is the Pacific front still remains

328
00:32:46,809 --> 00:32:52,269
okay so Hitler is going to commit suicide the 30th April or April the 30th

329
00:32:52,269 --> 00:33:00,730
and in May the 8th Germany is going to surrender so the problem is the the the

330
00:33:00,730 --> 00:33:09,309
war is not over we still have the the we still have the the front the Pacific

331
00:33:09,309 --> 00:33:12,849
front so what we are going to see is how did the world the Second World War is

332
00:33:12,849 --> 00:33:20,289
going to end in the Pacific front in the Pacific area remember May the 8th is

333
00:33:20,289 --> 00:33:27,430
when the the war ended in Europe the war is going to end in September in the

334
00:33:27,430 --> 00:33:31,930
Pacific so the idea is the Americans are going to reconquer most of the

335
00:33:31,930 --> 00:33:36,430
territory where we were as I was explained before the idea is to conquer

336
00:33:36,430 --> 00:33:42,589
island by island in order to bomb an end with to force Japan to surrender okay so

337
00:33:42,589 --> 00:33:47,049
So they are going to be conquering, remember Guadalcanal, remember Midway, okay?

338
00:33:47,049 --> 00:33:57,269
So the idea is to conquer and take back the Philippines, while they want islands in order to bomb Japan.

339
00:33:58,650 --> 00:34:02,970
But the problem is Japan is going to continue this fanatical defense.

340
00:34:03,069 --> 00:34:04,589
They are going to use the kamikazes.

341
00:34:04,589 --> 00:34:11,630
A kamikaze is a soldier that is going to take a plane and is going to crash the plane into

342
00:34:11,630 --> 00:34:15,030
an enemy ship, an enemy boat.

343
00:34:15,030 --> 00:34:23,869
So the idea is they are going to commit suicide in order to try to end with the enemy's fleet.

344
00:34:23,869 --> 00:34:26,690
These are some of these kamikazes, ok?

345
00:34:26,690 --> 00:34:35,510
As you can see they are holding the katanas, the Japanese swords, and they are going to

346
00:34:35,510 --> 00:34:40,510
take their planes and they are going to crash the planes into the different ships, the different

347
00:34:40,510 --> 00:34:47,010
boats in order to try to kill as much Americans as they can.

348
00:34:47,010 --> 00:34:54,690
It means only one soldier killing a lot of Americans, that's the idea.

349
00:34:54,690 --> 00:35:02,369
As the war was ended in Europe and the USA was losing a lot of lives, a lot of soldiers

350
00:35:02,369 --> 00:35:10,190
in the Pacific, the new president, Truman, that is the successor of Franklin Delano Roosevelt,

351
00:35:10,190 --> 00:35:16,989
you may remember Franklin Delano Roosevelt from the New Deal, the New Deal policy in

352
00:35:16,989 --> 00:35:24,630
order to end with the crisis of 1929, so Truman is going to decide to use the atomic bombs.

353
00:35:24,630 --> 00:35:36,269
In order to shorten the war, they are going to drop to throw these bombs in August 1945

354
00:35:36,269 --> 00:35:44,809
two atomic bombs in these two ports, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Hiroshima and Nagasaki is going

355
00:35:44,809 --> 00:35:51,869
to be a commercial port, a really important port related to trade, so the idea is they

356
00:35:51,869 --> 00:35:59,389
are going to bomb these two cities in order to force japan to surrender because japan wanted to

357
00:35:59,389 --> 00:36:04,590
resist island by island so the thing is the americans are going to say the president of the

358
00:36:04,590 --> 00:36:10,349
u.s henry truman is going to say okay we need to shorten this war we need to shorten the war in

359
00:36:10,349 --> 00:36:19,710
order to avoid fighting or lose to lose more american lives so the idea is president truman

360
00:36:19,710 --> 00:36:28,010
is going to drop these bombs, these two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and finally

361
00:36:28,010 --> 00:36:33,110
of course after this the Japanese are going to surrender, why the Japanese are going to

362
00:36:33,110 --> 00:36:36,190
surrender after these two atomic bombs?

363
00:36:36,190 --> 00:36:44,150
Because of this reason, these are some images, this is the destruction of the cities, there

364
00:36:44,150 --> 00:36:53,090
is no houses everything is destroyed the people is burned alive okay all the

365
00:36:53,090 --> 00:36:58,389
people is just gone what you hear is a stairs what you have here is the shape

366
00:36:58,389 --> 00:37:06,510
of the people that they were just they integrated in that moment it means they

367
00:37:06,510 --> 00:37:13,429
are going to make them disappear there is no remains apart from the shadow of

368
00:37:13,429 --> 00:37:15,570
of the person. ¿Qué quiere decir?

369
00:37:15,710 --> 00:37:17,329
Esta es la silueta

370
00:37:17,329 --> 00:37:19,349
de la escalera y de la persona que estaba en la casa,

371
00:37:19,429 --> 00:37:21,429
al lado de la casa. Cae la bomba, la bomba

372
00:37:21,429 --> 00:37:23,510
lo fulmina, y lo que queda

373
00:37:23,510 --> 00:37:24,750
es la impresión

374
00:37:24,750 --> 00:37:27,530
en la casa de la persona que ahí había.

375
00:37:31,179 --> 00:37:32,599
More than 150

376
00:37:32,599 --> 00:37:34,300
people died in minutes.

377
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:35,940
In minutes.

378
00:37:38,559 --> 00:37:40,519
¿Ok? So the US

379
00:37:40,519 --> 00:37:43,099
lost 200,000

380
00:37:43,099 --> 00:37:44,199
people, it means

381
00:37:44,199 --> 00:37:46,659
50,000

382
00:37:46,659 --> 00:37:54,099
more during the whole war during three years but in minutes the japanese are going to lose

383
00:37:54,099 --> 00:38:02,340
almost the same number of people 150 000 people of course on september the second japan is going

384
00:38:02,340 --> 00:38:07,380
to surrender and the second world war ended and that's it the second world war ended in this

385
00:38:07,380 --> 00:38:14,099
moment the next point is the characteristics of the war and we will see that in the next video
