Events that lead to WW2.

In September 1939 Germany invaded Poland this is also remember as the start of the war. during the same time japan took over 1/4 of China. Japan lost about 500,000 troops during the invasion and spent 10 billion. In 1940 Germany held almost of all western Europe. later that year the United States started getting involved with other nations but completely in the war. They gave britain 50 old navel destroyers. In exchange the US got use of navel and air bases. Early next year hitler invaded Yugoslavia. In mid 1941 germany also invaded the soviet union. Later that year is when the US got involved when the japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. The next day we declared war on japan so did britain. a few days later Germany and Italy declared war on the USA.

how do people help each other out

Helping others can be hard at times. But in some cases its not. Many people have helped me out with the problems i've had with other people. some of those i had a tough time with, but i got through it. Times that i helped people out with those problems were hard to. Like this one time, some people wanted to beat up my friend, so me and so other friends walked up to them and told them to back off or there's going to be some problems. Now they leave him alone they just stare. i've had the same problems, some even with older people. I'm not the type of person who goes looking for trouble. I just like to have fun and party, get along with other people. If you don't do that then thats no fun. Your just out looking for trouble. I always see people helping other people out in my community. So just go out and have fun help other people out once in a while, its a good feeling
