'''World War Two''', also known as '''World War II''' or the '''Second World War''', was a war fought from [[1939]] to [[1945]] in [[Europe]] and, during much of the 1930s and 1940s, in [[Asia]].
The accepted view is that the war began in earnest on [[1939-09-01]] with the raid of [[Directory:Poland|Poland]] by [[Nazi]] [[Directory:Germany|Germany]], and concluded on [[1945-09-02]] with the official surrender of the last [[Axis Powers|Axis]] force, [[Directory:Japan|Japan]]. However, in Europe, the war had concluded earlier with the unconditional surrender of Germany on [[1945-05-08]].
