1. (World War II) (7296↑, 189↓)
Germany invades Czechoslovakia. Britain & France tell them to stop that bullshit. Germany invades Poland. (Russia also invades Poland from the other side: everybody forgets this.) Britain & France declare war. This is the 'official' kick-off. Italy, Bulgaria, Hungary, & Romania all join the German side. (Everybody forgets the last three.) Axis forces go through Europe like vindaloo through a colostomy. Nazis exterminate Jews, gays, gypsies, & the disabled. (everybody remembers the jews but forgets the rest.) UK holds out. Russia & the USA don't do shit. Entire divisions of Danish, Belgian, Dutch, Norwegian, French & Serbian volunteers join the Axis armies & SS. (everybody forgets this & to listen to them now, they were all in the fucking resistance, which must have been MASSIVE.) Axis forces invade Russia. Suddenly the Russians don't think it's funny any more. Japan joins the Axis & bombs Pearl Harbor. Suddenly the US doesn't think it's funny any more. The USA tools up the world, 'cause it's got more factories than everybody else put together, & they're out of bomber range. Axis runs out of steam in Russia, cause Russia's enormous & bloody freezing. Allies invade on D-Day... 5 landings: 2 British, 2 American, 1 Canadian. (everybody forgets the Canadians.) Hitler ends up smouldering in a ditch. Russians find the body & confirm he only had one ball. Seriously. The US decides invading stuff is a pain in the ass and invents the atom bomb instead. Drops two buckets 'o sunshine on Japan. Russians steal half of Europe. UK's spent almost every penny it had. US starts telling everybody how it was all about them, & 64 years later is still doing so.

One of the few sequels that surpassed the original.

We have, ironically, World War II to thank for ending the depression.

3. (World War II) (300↑, 64↓)
According to the protagonist in Kurt Vonnegut's "Timequake": "...The world's second unsucessful attempt to commit suicide."

4. (world war II) (346↑, 149↓)
Allies vs Axis, started mostly by fascist imperialism on the part of the Axis powers. During the war, Germany at its peak had taken over most of Europe, Japan had taken most of the Pacific island nations, and Italy had taken most of northern Africa. Ended in 1945. Perhaps the most significant event of the 20th century, and this dictionary can't possibly begin to cover all of it. See also: every show on the History Channel.

5. (World War II) (364↑, 280↓)
Briefly: A war in which aproximately 12 million allied soldiers and 33 million civilians lost their lives defending the freedoms many now take for granted.

Had the Allies not defeated the Axis powers in World War II there would be no urban dictionary.

6. (world war ii) (99↑, 29↓)
A war in which over 56 million lives were snubbed out and people like to debate about who made the biggest contribution in winning against the axis powers. 1939 - 1945 NOT 1937. Country Men in war Battle deaths Wounded Australia 1,000,000 26,976 180,864 Austria 800,000 280,000 350,117 Belgium 625,000 8,460 55,5131 Brazil2 40,334 943 4,222 Bulgaria 339,760 6,671 21,878 Canada 1,086,3437 42,0427 53,145 China3 17,250,521 1,324,516 1,762,006 Czechoslovakia — 6,6834 8,017 Denmark — 4,339 — Finland 500,000 79,047 50,000 France — 201,568 400,000 Germany 20,000,000 3,250,0004 7,250,000 Greece — 17,024 47,290 Hungary — 147,435 89,313 India 2,393,891 32,121 64,354 Italy 3,100,000 149,4964 66,716 Japan 9,700,000 1,270,000 140,000 Netherlands 280,000 6,500 2,860 New Zealand 194,000 11,6254 17,000 Norway 75,000 2,000 — Poland — 664,000 530,000 Romania 650,0005 350,0006 — South Africa 410,056 2,473 — U.S.S.R. — 6,115,0004 14,012,000 United Kingdom 5,896,000 357,1164 369,267 United States 16,112,566 291,557 670,846 Yugoslavia 3,741,000 305,000 425,000 All of the above except for the axis powers contributed to the end of the war and none should have there bravery taken away by overpatriotic fools.

Yes it is true the Red Army contributed largely to the Allied victory, but they too committed many atrocities to the citizens of the various countries they occupied. Especially the Baltic countries, Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania were pretty wealthy, and had a standard of living on par with most of western Europe before World War II. However, Soviet occupation annihilated their economies, wealth, and severely damaged their environmental beauty.

9. (world war II) (248↑, 246↓)
1) A war which the main character in countless first-person shooter PC/Playstation games is shown single-handedly winning. 2) A war (1937-1945) whose understanding by most Brits AND Americans today is unfortunately largely Eurocentric. 3) A war whose tide the Americans did indeed almost singlehandedly turn in the Pacific at the battles of the Coral Sea and Midway(May/June 1942) 4) A war during which Japan committed very brutal atrocities which resulted in the deaths of over 20 million Asian/Pacific Island civilians, which Japan has yet to publicly acknowledge.

Today "World" War II would better serve to be known as the Second European War, since noone seems to give a rat's ass about the Asia/Pacific Theater.

(continued from azndude111) 4. Germans inflicted a much better result than there numbers would have predicted. In the whole of Germany, at the PEAK PEAK of production, 100ish Tiger tanks were made per month. U.S.... 54,000 Shermans were made in one year. 3 Jagdpanthers (a type of tank) destroyed 47 Shermans in one battle strategically places. 5. U.S. advanced hardly a mile on good days. Germany was advancing 20-40 or so miles when it was making advances. Russia advanced on par with some German advances and was significant better than the U.S. and while it is big in land, it was not a huge economic superpower. Think about, U.S. went from the coast of France and advanced how much in 1 year? They even lost the race to Berlin to Russia considering they were only so many miles away compared to Russia.... 6. Saving American lives. Americans had such a conservative attitude. This is the reason why we are losing in Afghanistan. The real Russian soldiers, charged fearlessly, and were shot if they retreated. The house to house, door to door, put your head up for 3 seconds and get sniped situations, were the real hardships endured by Russian soldiers. 7. U.S. had the best production and technology in just economy and failed. It had bad generals compared to Germans.

World War II was awesome

11. (World War II) (3↑, 2↓)
A war where American supremacists act like they did all the work. I'm not pro-german, nor am I saying they should have won, but it pisses me off when T.V. shows and documentaries give completely biased information towards U.S. troops. The American documentaries tend to talk about brave heroic actions and how American's broke through by themselves and without us, we would never have won the war. Here's a few reasons why the U.S. did nothing and had a complete advantage coming into the war in the first place. 1. They're out of bomber range. Every other country in Europe was heavily bombed heavily. 2. The German's had basically lost the war in the first place in early 1944 to Russia. After losing The Battle of Stalingrad and Leningrad and battles in the Caucasian areas, Russia was advancing many many miles a day. 3. Germany was drained of resources. It was running extremely low and the country, while stretched thin on its own fault, had EXTREMELY limited ammo, fuel, and manpower. 50% of troops in the western front against the U.S. and Britain were 35 year old + reserve troops and there were virtually no crack special forces units like the S.S. (to be continued)

World War II U.S. supremacists are weird.

12. (World War II) (13↑, 28↓)
The sequel to [World War I] 1. An overrated massive war you've probably heard about a trillion times (because it was the last justified war in the Western world, unlike Vietnam, Falklands, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.) between various countries, particularly the Allies vs Axis powers, the most popular contendants are USA, UK, Russia, France, Germany and Japan, but seemingly people forget Canada, Australia, China, etc. It occured between 1939 and 1945 (not 1941-1945, contrary to what the United States Education System says, just because USA entered the war then). 2. A war in many First Person Shooter games where one person (usually American) singlehandedly defeats an entire German Army and the wins the war.

You're always told to thank World War II veterans (who themselves just want to chill and forget about the war) that you can speak, write, speak English, read, shit freely etc. despite the fact WWII ended 65 years ago and the world has moved on. I do not care if some crazy Austrian-German man in the 1930's wanted to conquer the world and exterminate retards and jews, hasn't many countries such as Britain did that like 100 times already? Isn't USA doing that now by killing the world with its mass produced McDonalds resteraunts making everyone obese and shitty cars that break down easily, or cheaply made Xbox 360 consoles that blow up in your face, oh and lets not forget dawdling their dick in Iraq in some attempt to take their oil and force a flawed "democracy" down their neck?

the yanks didnt single handedly turn the tide in the pacific. midway and the battle of the coral sea was fought with australia and the USA combining there forces to create a battle fleet to counter-attack the japs.

the allied victory was all thanks to all the countries involved in the alliance, not just the yanks

14. (world war II) (123↑, 141↓)
Nobody ever claimed WWII was won soley by the Americans, you stupid British nits, so shut your traps.

Bush-haters seem to debunk every accomplishment America ever made, including help win World War II

15. (world war ii) (69↑, 104↓)
A War that started beacuse [Nazi] Germany, under [Hitler], Invaded Poland in 1939. Was then declared war on by France and UK. Germany Invaded France and many other countries in 1940and 41, knocking them all out except for a few free forces. They used a stargey called [blitzkrieg] Also, Italy joined Germany in 1940 stating the Axis allience. Germans then Invaded the [Soviet Union] in 1941, bringing them onto the allied side (UK, Free French). Then Japan declareed war on USA and UK after the attack on [Pearl Harbor] followed by the Axis declaring war on the US. The war went poorly in 1941-spring of 1942. But, then the battles of El Alaimen, Stalingrad, Midway, and Gudalcanal (all happening in Summer of 1942-Winter of 1943) pushed the war in the Allies favor. In the Summer of 1943, the Battle of Kursk destroyed any cahnce of German victory on the Eastern Front, and in 1944, the [D-Day] landings made Germany have to fight a two front war. Mean while, the US kept on driving back the Japenease to Japan, shattering there navy at battles like Battle of the Phillipine Sea and Lyete Gulf. In December of 1944, Germany lunched a last ditch effort to defeat the UK-USA allience forces, but failed, making defeat unavoidable to Germany. Germany collapsed 5 moubths later on May 8th, with [Hitler] commiting suicide a few days earlier. Japan fell 3 mounths later, with a [A-bomb] being dropped on them because of the bloodshed a invasion of Japan would have. Many attrocities where commited by Germany during the war aginst the Jews and many other religions, nationinalities, and in general life stlye choices, which was calle the [holacost] Japan did similar, treating prisioners with extreme brutality and civilians alike. It is one of the most widly known wars and most highly used in movies, games etc..

Many inventions came out of World War II, like the Jet engine, Radar, jeeps, and nuclear technolgy.

A war that the Bush family helped create by giving weapons and ideas to Hitler. The Bush family ended up making billions of dollars off the deaths of hundreds of millions of people.

Bush: Hey hitler, go invade poland and we will sell you arms. Hitler: ok, but don't you think that may start world war II? Bush: we can only hope.

17. (World War II) (139↑, 338↓)
The Americans did not single handedly win the war. Maybe the naval war, but how about the Russians at Starlingrad destroying the German Eastern Front? How about Montgomery in Africa? Just a little naieve to think that the whole of World War II was won in 2 battles by the Americans. Also, you ignored the War until it became a threat to you and you thought GB might fall. I assume you just learnt about those 2 battles in history today? Maybe you'll do the other bits later in the semester

Yank: Hey, didn't we win World War II by ourself? Yank 2: Yeah, pretty much. Yank: Didn't we win the war againt terror by ourself as well? Yeank 2: Yeah, pretty much.

18. (world war II) (60↑, 293↓)
A war fought mainly between Germany and Russia. Germany sent 80% of its army to Russia and lost. America claims it won the war singlehandedly despite 8 out of 10 German casualties being against the Russian army.

The financial rulers of America, the descendants of the German and Polish yids are ungrateful to the Red Army who liberated their families from death camps. They know the real winners of World War II, but won't admit it because of loyalty to their neo-con homeland.
