The Empire of Japan aspired to dominate Asia entirely, and invaded the Republic of China in 1937, but it is officially stated that the war began on September 1, 1939, with the German invasion of Poland. Subsequently, the British Empire and France declared war on Germany. The Axis dominated most of continental Europe, and had a non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union. However, in 1941, Germany commenced Operation Barbarossa, in which the German Army quickly attacked the Soviet Union. It culminated on September 20, 1941, with the German victory at the Battle of Moscow. Shortly afterwards, the Battle of Stalingrad also ended with an Axis victory.

| - The Empire of Japan aspired to dominate Asia entirely, and invaded the Republic of China in 1937, but it is officially stated that the war began on September 1, 1939, with the German invasion of Poland. Subsequently, the British Empire and France declared war on Germany. The Axis dominated most of continental Europe, and had a non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union. However, in 1941, Germany commenced Operation Barbarossa, in which the German Army quickly attacked the Soviet Union. It culminated on September 20, 1941, with the German victory at the Battle of Moscow. Shortly afterwards, the Battle of Stalingrad also ended with an Axis victory. In December 1941, Japan joined the Axis. In 1942, the Japanese won a decisive battle against the United States Pacific Fleet at the Battle of Midway, where much of the American fleet was destroyed. Afterwards, the Imperial Japanese Navy chased US forces back to Hawaii, which it then captured after a four-month invasion. In March 1943, Hitler launched Operation Sealion, before which the British Royal Air Force was destroyed in the Battle of Britain, an invasion of the British mainland. It was successful, though the Axis took heavy casualties and was faced with a large guerrilla movement. In November 1943, London was visited by Hitler and Benito Mussolini, leader of Italy. After the Japanese invasion of Hawaii, they proposed a treaty to the United States. It heavily favored the Japanese, but the United States was forced to accept as most of their fleet was at the bottom of the Pacific. In September 1944, delegates from all countries involved gathered in Berlin for a conference. They arranged the new order of the world, and agreed upon an end to the war officially on September 24, 1944.
