The After Effects of Hitler

The After Effects of Hitler

Hitler's actions during World War II had a profound effect on world society during the war, but the effects after the war were just as important, if not more important. During the war, Hitler's action outraged most of the world, yet his actions had effects on the entire world after the war as well. For instance, economically, countries involved in the war either benefited from the war in the form of jobs and industrial revolutions, or countries involved in the war, such as Germany, were crushed by it because of the tremendous debts and revolutions spawned by the weakening of the governments. The war also had a tremendous impact on society, anywhere from the creation of The United Nations world charter, to the forming of Neo-Nazi Parties around the world.

The visible effects of the war, such as the approximately twenty million dead1, were all obviously large impacts on society. The number of deaths that resulted from the war are overwhelming. Following is a list of deaths that were a direct result of battle:
