[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 997352, member: 70552"] The First World War was called the Great War and was commenced in the summer of 1914. It was supposed to be over by Xmas but instead they played a football match on Xmas day and and it ended up dragging on and didn’t end until 11am on 11 November 1918. This was supposed to be the war to end all wars. Alas how the Allies treated Germany following their defeat and the fall out from the Great Depression, which gave rise to the Nazis and eventually World War II, which lasted from 1939 and ended in Europe on VE Day 8 May 1945. But the war against Japan didn’t end until 15 August 1945 after the dropping of two Atomic bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima. [/QUOTE]
