World War Two Questions (Canadian Course)?

Question

1. Where were the main theatres of battle during the war? In which specific areas were Canadians involved?
2. What is Lebensraum or "living space" mean? Austria had been taken over rather easily by Nazi Germany in 1938. Why was this so? What excuse did Hitler use to remilitarize the Rhineland and to take over the Sudtenland of Czechoslovakia?
3. What event caused Britain, France, and Canada to declare war on Nazi Germany in 1939? Why is it significant that Canada did NOT declare war the same day as Britain?
4. What event in 1941 caused the Soviet Union to join sides with the western allies? What did Stalin continuously ask the western allies to do for the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1944? How did Britain and Canada respond to this request in 1942?
5. Which two British victories stopped Nazi Germany from invading and taking over the island of Great Britain?

That's all of them! I did 20 more of these on my own. I just can't find the answers anywhere, and I need some help!

Answer 1

I'll give you #1: The six year long Second Battle of the North Atlantic ( #1 was 1914-1918)

Canadian forces supplied a third of the escort ships that protected the convoys sailing to England from St John's and Halifax, and killed 50% of the U-Boats that were downed.

Many forget the vital contribution to Victory At Sea by the RCN.....they shouldn't.
