The 2nd World War refers to the great war fought between 1939 and 1945, with Germany, Italy and Japan (Axis Powers) on one side and USA, USSR, England, France and many other countries(Allied Powers) on the other side. Though the Axis Powers had caused great damages in the initial stages, they were ultimately defeated. The formation of the UNO and the start of the 'cold war' may be included among the consequences of the War.

The people of the British Colonies of America decided they received little benefit and a lot of trouble from being under British jurisdiction. They thought they could do better if they made their own kind of government, so they overthrew the British rule.

One day, the silly Brits in their stylish red cloaks came a calling. We kicked their butts and they left running home like little school girls who had their pigtails pulled.
