Russia gave raw materials to Germany in exchange for money and weapons. Both agreed to stay neutral if the other entered the war. Secretly agreed to invade and split Poland.
September 1, 1939. Blitzkrieg (lightning war). Took out airfields, highways, communication centers, and anything else to confuse the enemy.
Sitzkrieg; Phony war. 39-40 winter; nothing really happened anywhere. Tripartite Pact; Japan officially added to Axis powers. Axis; Germany, Italy, Japan. Allies; U.S., France, Great Britain, Soviet Union, China, Canada, Australia. Germany invaded and took over Denmark and Norway, but could not control the North Sea because the British Navy was so strong.
