i heard that every country in the world was affected by world war 2, even the neutral ones. Can you help me reasearch what all those countries did?

i have an idea, reasearch your country and tell about it's participation in world war 2. The us was neutral until the japenese attacked Pearl Harbor. Then, we lanted in North africa and helped british beat the Africa Korps. Alongside British and Canadians, U.S invaded Normandy and quickly invaded germany w help from soviet union. we dropped atomic bombs on japan to end the war

Think this thread is a little insensitive on such an international site.  (And to be honest, your account of history is rather simplistic).

The Swiss were neutral, but many Jews and "Non-Aryans" fled to Switzerland.

Chief_Brody has the real good point about this, get the the videobox that he mentions, I've seen it and it's probably the best and most accurate documentation of those horrible times. 

I'm old enough to remember WWII, I was 7 years old when the war ended. Living in Norway, I still remember the German occupation and soldiers in the streets and all.. However no actual fighting except for the destruction by American and British bomber planes of the german battleship "Tirpitz" outside my hometown Tromso in Northern Norway in 1944..

Sweden was neutral during the war..

 But.., how neutral could small countries in Europe be in times like those..?

the U.S.A gave britain naval support, weapons and equipment. also helping Angland win the battle of britain was the deciphering of the enigma code, which was helped by polish.

the world at war seems to have about an hour for each episode. that makes it take 26 hours, meaning it takes more than 1 day to watch it. i don't have the time to watch it.

well, we have to protect one side or the other, and we chose kosovo to help gain independence. this is probably because america was trying to gain independence from england

Carfeul, one thread already got locked because it turned into a discussion of the Kosovo situation. Remember, politics and religion are banned.

Shame it's not a PS2 / PS3 / xBox game eh?  You'd put the hours in then wouldn't you? Wink

WW2 was like really bad because a lot of Jews got into internment camps and were tortured. The Nazis used poison, flamethrowers, and they cut off all the hair of the Jews and stripped them.(they didn't rape them) That war was really bad and I hope that there would never be a WW3. Otherwise, the world would die!

no, i wouldn't spend those hours on video games. i heard that some jews were hung by their hands, and nazis put hosed in their mouths and sprayed H2O into their mouths until their stomachs burst and they died.
