AI explanation

The Second World War formally ended in 1945 with Germany's surrender in May and Japan's surrender in September after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The earlier years (1942-1944) were still active combat phases — 1942-43 saw major turning points like Stalingrad and Midway, and 1944 included the D-Day landings, but the war itself continued for another year after each of those.
