The Second World War World War II, or the Second World War (often abbreviated as WWII or
WW2), was a global war that started in 1939 and ended in 1945. It involved many nations
—including all of the great powers— forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and
the Axis. It was the most widespread war in history, with more than 100 million people serving
in military units. In a state of “total war”, the major participants placed their entire economic,
industrial, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, erasing the distinction
between civilian and military resources. Marked by significant events involving the mass death
of civilians, including the Holocaust and the only use of nuclear weapons in warfare, it resulted
in 50 million to over 70 million fatalities. These deaths make the war the deadliest conflict in
human history. Even when President Lazaro Cardenas declared Mexico neutral during World
War II, President Manuel Avila Camacho allied Mexican troops, known as Squadron 201, with
the United States.
