Ngokusekelwe embhalweni wenkomba, nikeza uhlu olunezigaba lwezici ezaba nomthelela ekubangeleni iMpi Yezwe II.
Context:IMpi Yezwe II noma iMpi Yezwe Yesibili, evame ukufushaniswa ngokuthi i-WWII noma i-WW2, kwakuyimpi yomhlaba wonke eyathatha isikhathi kusuka ngo-1939 kuya ku-1945. Iningi lamazwe omhlaba, kuhlanganise nawo wonke amandla amakhulu, alwa njengengxenye yemibutho emibili yempi ephikisanayo: i - Allies ne - Axis. Abaningi ababambe iqhaza bafaka amakhono abo ezomnotho, ezimboni, nezesayensi kulempi ephelele, benza umehluko phakathi kwemithombo yabantu abavamile neyezempi waba buthuntu. Izindiza zafeza indima enkulu, zenza kwaba nokwenzeka ukuba amabhomu amasu agqitshelwe ezikhungweni ezinabantu abaningi futhi athwale izikhali zenuzi ezimbili kuphela ezake zasetshenziswa empini.  IMpi Yezwe II yayiyimpi ebulala kakhulu kunazo zonke emlandweni; yabangela ukufa kwabantu abalinganiselwa ezigidini ezingu-70 kuya kwezingu-85, iningi labo kwakungabantu abavamile. Amashumi ezigidi afa ngenxa yokuqothulwa kohlanga (kuhlanganise nokuQothulwa Kwesizwe), indlala, ukubulawa kwabantu abaningi nezifo. Ngemva kokunqotshwa kwe-Axis, iJalimane neJapane zabanjwa, futhi kwaqulwa amacala obugebengu bempi abaholi baseJalimane nabaseJapane.  Izimbangela zeMpi Yezwe Yesibili ziyaphikisana, kodwa izimbangela ezifaka isandla zifaka phakathi iMpi Yesibili Yase-Italy-Ethiopia, iMpi Yombango yaseSpain, iMpi Yesibili YaseSino-Japanese, izingxabano zemingcele yaseSoviet-Japanese, ukwanda kwe-fascism eYurophu, kanye nengcindezi yaseYurophu ngemuva kweMpi Yezwe I. Impi Yezwe Yesibili ngokuvamile ibhekwa njengokuqala ngo-1 Septhemba 1939, lapho iJalimane LamaNazi, ngaphansi kuka-Adolf Hitler, lihlasela iPoland. I - United Kingdom neFrance kamuva zamemezela impi eJalimane ngo - September 3. Ngaphansi kweSivumelwano sikaMolotov-Ribbentrop sika-August 1939, iJalimane neSoviet Union zazihlukanise iPoland futhi zahlukanisa "izindawo zazo zethonya" eFinland, e-Estonia, eLatvia, eLithuania naseRomania. Kusukela ngasekupheleni kuka-1939 kuya ekuqaleni kuka-1941, ngochungechunge lwemikhankaso nezivumelwano, iJalimane lanqoba noma lalawula ingxenye enkulu yezwekazi laseYurophu, ebambisene ne-Italy, iJapane namanye amazwe ayebizwa ngokuthi i-Axis. Ngemuva kokuqala kwemikhankaso eNyakatho Afrika naseMpumalanga Afrika, kanye nokuwa kweFrance maphakathi no-1940, impi yaqhubeka ngokuyinhloko phakathi kwamandla e-Axis aseYurophu kanye noMbuso waseBrithani, ngempi eBalkans, iMpi Yezindiza yaseBrithani, iBlitz yase-United Kingdom, kanye neMpi ye-Atlantic.

Amandla e-Axis aseYurophu amemezela impi ngokumelene ne-United States ngenxa yobunye. Ngokushesha iJapane yathatha ingxenye enkulu yePacific esentshonalanga, kodwa ukuqhubekela phambili kwayo kwamiswa ngo-1942 ngemva kokulahlekelwa iMpi YaseMidway; kamuva, iJalimane ne - Italy banqotshwa eNyakatho Afrika naseStalingrad eSoviet Union. Ukuwa okuyinhloko ngo-1943 - okubandakanya uchungechunge lokunqotshwa kwamaJalimane eMpumalanga, ukuhlasela kwe-Allied eSicily nasezweni lase-Italy, kanye nokuhlaselwa kwe-Allied ePacific - kwabiza amandla e-Axis isinyathelo sabo futhi kwaphoqa ukuba babuyele emuva kuzo zonke izingxenye. Ngo-1944, amabutho aseNtshonalanga ahlasela iFrance eyayibuswa amaJalimane, kuyilapho iSoviet Union iphinda ithola izindawo eyayizithole ekuhlaselweni futhi yacindezela iJalimane namabutho ayesebenzisana nayo ukuba babuyele emuva. Phakathi no - 1944 no - 1945, iJapane yahlaselwa e - Asia, kuyilapho ama - Allies ayesonakalisa uMbutho Wezempi WaseJapane futhi ethatha iziqhingi ezibalulekile ezisentshonalanga yePacific.  Impi yaseYurophu yaphela ngokukhululwa kwezindawo ezazihlala amaJalimane kanye nokuhlasela kweJalimane yi-Western Allies kanye neSoviet Union, okwaholela ekuweni kweBerlin kumabutho aseSoviet, ukuzibulala kukaHitler, kanye nokuzinikela kweJalimane ngaphandle kwemibandela ngoMeyi 8, 1945.

IMpi Yezwe II yashintsha ukuhleleka kwezombangazwe nesakhiwo sezenhlalo emhlabeni futhi yabeka isisekelo sokuhleleka kwamazwe omhlaba phakathi neMpi Yomshoshaphansi kuze kube namuhla. IZizwe Ezihlangene zasungulwa ukuze zikhuthaze ukubambisana kwamazwe ngamazwe futhi zivimbele izingxabano zesikhathi esizayo, njengoba imibuso emikhulu eyayinqobile - iChina, iFrance, iSoviet Union, i-United Kingdom, ne-United States - yaba amalungu angunaphakade oMkhandlu Wokuvikeleka. ISoviet Union ne-United States kwavela njengamazwe anamandla amakhulu, kwakheka isisekelo seMpi Yomshoshaphansi eyathatha cishe isigamu sekhulu leminyaka. Ngemva kokubhujiswa kweYurophu, ithonya lemibuso yayo emikhulu laba buthakathaka, okwaholela ekususweni kwamakoloni e - Afrika nase - Asia. Amazwe amaningi izimboni zawo ezazilimele athuthukela ekululameni komnotho nasekukhuleni. Ukuhlanganiswa kwezombangazwe nezomnotho, ikakhulukazi eYurophu, kwaqala njengomzamo wokuvimbela izimpi zesikhathi esizayo, ukuqeda ubutha bangaphambi kwempi, nokwakha umuzwa wobuntu obufanayo.
Nakuba kunempikiswano ngezimbangela zeMpi Yezwe II, izici eziye zaba nomthelela zihlanganisa: - Ukukhuphuka kobuFascist eYurophu - Ukungezwani kwaseYurophu ngemva kweMpi Yezwe I - Impi Yesibili Yase-Italy Ne-Ethiopia - Impi Yombango YaseSpain - Impi Yesibili YamaShayina NamaJapane - Izingxabano zemingcele yaseSoviet-Japan
