1. World War II, and it’s effected
the economy.
By Jacob

3. World war II effect on the economy
• The War was the reason the Great Depression
ended. The war made many open jobs to people
to make things that the soldiers needed. The
jump out of the depression made the stock
market jump. A bunch of the Americans products
went over seas, then half of the countries
products went over seas. There were some hard
times, but the War was basically a good
economics time for the U.S.

4. The start of World War II
• No one wanted a war. But when the Germans
attacked Poland, the European countries had to
get involved. Hitler wanted more land, especially
in the east. Hitler and his army had already
conquered two countries Austria, and
Czechoslovakia. Many wondered if it was right
for Germany to take over two countries without a
fight. Many also think Brittan and France didn’t
get involved because they did not want a
another big war like World War I.

11. What were the main countries involved
in world war II, and were are they.
The main countries that were involved in the
war are allies U.S.A., France, Brittan and
Russia. The Allies of Germany are Japan
and Italy. These are the main countries
that were in world war II.

12. The worst parts of the war
• The holocaust was one of the worst thing in
World War II. The burning of innocent people.
And the bad fighting in the eastern part of
Europe. The thing that the free world was forced
to do in order to win. The being forced to fight
and you couldn’t say no or else your country
might lose. The war was the reason the U.S. got
out of the depression, so it wasn’t bad for the
economy. But people had to less of everything
because of the war.

13. How it changed peoples lives in the
U.S?
• At least one person from every family was
drafted into the army to fight. many People less
of also everything. Less meat, less tires, less
gasoline, and less food. People recycled. People
recycled old tires, old tin cans, and any metal
that could be saved to make things like bullets,
or planes, or boats. Woman were sent to the
factories to work while the men went out to fight.
The economy jumped because everyone was
working.

14. How did the war change peoples
lives in Germany?
• Early in his political career, Hitler regarded economic
issues as relatively unimportant. In 1922, Hitler
proclaimed that "world history teaches us that no people
has become great through its economy but that a people
can very well perish thereby", and later concluded that
"the economy is something of secondary importance".
Hitler and the Nazis held a very strong conception of
history, which held that human events are guided by
small numbers of exceptional individuals following a
higher ideal. They believed that all economic concerns,
being purely material, were unworthy of their
consideration. Hitler went as far as to blame all previous
German governments since having "subjugated the
nation to materialism" by relying more on peaceful
economic development than on expansion through war.

15. What people have done to help
stop it
• When the war was going, and they need more
soldiers to fight, the women went out to work in
the factories. People also recycled. People
recycled almost everything. They recycled cans,
and all metals for bullets and planes and ships.
People got less food so they could feed the
army. People got less gasoline so that there was
extra for the army. Everyone did this so that the
war would end faster if they did this. And if they
didn’t do it, people would say that they would
lose the war.

16. How does it affect me?
• The wars economy didn’t really affect
me that much.

17. A solution for World War II
• I think that if Germany wanted more land
they should have battled for it and not just
took it. I also think that they should have
just battled that country and not half of the
world.

18. Long effects of the war
• Some of the effects of the war are the
people that died in the war, and how there
families are always sad. People that lost
body parts and have to live without them.
Also people that get war sickness and
can’t forget the war. The women went to
work in the factories, and not only in the
homes.

19. Who went to fight.
• The U.S. military sent people in the Army,
Navy, Marines, and Air Force to go and
fight. They sent people over there to win
the war. There was someone from every
house drafted to the military. Then women
had to go and work in the factories. A lot
of jobs cam up then. While the men were
fighting in Europe, the women were
making the stuff that they needed to fight.

20. • Many men went out to fight. Then the
women went to work in the factories. Then
when the men came back from the war,
they worked in the factories. Some of the
women that worked in the factories stayed
and worked, others left and worked in
there homes.

21. Before and after
• Before the World War II the U.S. was in
the Great Depression, and before that the
U.S. was in World War I. Then World War
II happened and the U.S. was out of the
Depression then the men came back and
worked at the factories.

22. Extra information
• There were 92 counties involved I the war.
But there was only Seven main countries
involved in the war. They are Germany,
Japan, Italy, France, Russia, Brittan, and
The U.S.A. The three main that were on
our side were Russia, France, and Brittan.
The three main that we were fighting
against were Germany, Japan, and Italy.
There was about 50,000,000 people died
in World War II.

23. Post World War II jobs
• Many Americans feared that the end of
World War II and the subsequent drop in
the military spending might bring back the
hard times of the Great Depression. But
instead, pent-up consumer demand fueled
exceptionally strong economic growth in
the post war period.

24. Baby boomers
• A Baby boomer is a person who was
born during the demographic post World
war between the years 1946 and 1964,
according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The
term "baby boomer" is sometimes used in a
cultural context. Therefore, it is impossible
to achieve broad consensus of a precise
definition, even within a given place.

25. The GI bill
• The GI bill is also known as the
servicemen rejustment act. It is for the
returning soldiers back into the civilian
population. The bill provides financial
support for education and housing.

27. World War II
• War is a very bad thing, but this war got us
out of the Great Depression and back on
track. The war was a good economics for
the country, but it seems like it would be a
bad time because of fighting.
