The Battle of Britain and The Battle of Atlantic
history project.
INTRO
Te battle of britain remains one of the most famous battle in World War 2, it was a series of air attacks attempted by germany so they could launch seabourne attacks against england. But by the end of the campaign the German air forced was totally destroyed.
it was a huge turning point because it meant that germany could not invade england with any hopes of sucess until it rebuilt its airforce-which never ended up happening.
the battle of atlantic was about Britain needing to import food,raw materials,weapons, troops from the Dominions,colonies,and Allies.Supplies,weapons,troops had to be sent out from Britain to different fronts around the world.
All these things had to be sent/received by sea, and the Battle of the Atlantic was the attempt by Germany to close off the main supply route to and from Britain - the troops, raw materials,weapons from Canada and USA, food and raw materials from South America - which was across the Atlantic Ocean.
This was the most important battle of the war; if the Allies had lost, Britain would have been starved into surrender.
