-us went from 16th most powerful nation to #1
-we got several german rocket scientists who eventually DIRECTLY contributed to our putting a man on the moon (like they were the head scientists at NASA)
-it helped make black people and women more equal
-probably a lot of stuff was invented

- development of atomic weapons
- ended the depression for the usa
- gave the nation a sense of direction sorely lacking in the 30s
- increased the role and prestige of America on the world stage
- ended Fascism in western Europe (except in Spain, which maintained neutrality but was a covert base of operations for Nazi and allied governments)

The holocaust was happening in Germany via Hitler. Plus, he was trying to overtake all of Europe. We went over there to hlep resue the people from Hitler. Also, when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, that got us fighting here on our soil. Our country was kept safe from Hitler. And our country was kept safe from our enemies-that were our enemies at that time.

Well, it made us on top of the food chain, and we still are. We're still #1 and we're gonna stay that way. And, we made new allies (Japan), but we made anew enemy(Russia) but I think we're getting along with them now.
