Aftereffects of War: World War II: Great Britain

World War II was a global conflict from 1939 to 1945 involving the Axis and Allied powers, resulting in 40-50 million deaths. The war ended in Europe in May 1945 and in the Pacific in September 1945. Before the war, the British Empire was vast, but post-war, decolonization movements led to the independence of many nations. The British Empire's power waned, and new nations emerged, some joining the Commonwealth. The video explores these events and their impact on the UK.
