Battle of Stalingrad- worst war (most casualties)

Leningrad- it was terrible here. The bombarded this city and no one had food. People started committing suicide and cannibalism.

Japan Invades French Indochina- The U.S. stopped trade with Japan

Option 1- Withdraw, go back to Japan.

Option 2- Attack, we are going to force the US to trade. (they went with this option and bombed Pearl Harbor)

Option 3- Compromise, with the US.
