Question: When did the Second World War end in the country that the leader of Luftwaffe aligned Germany with?

the axis leaders of world war ii were important political and military figures during world war ii. the axis was established with the signing of the tripartite pact in 1940 and pursued a strongly militarist and nationalist ideology; with a policy of anti-communism. during the early phase of the war, puppet governments were established in their occupied nations. when the war ended, many of them faced trial for war crimes. the chief leaders were adolf hitler of germany, benito mussolini of italy and emperor hirohito of japan. unlike what happened with the allies, there was never a joint meeting of the main axis heads of government, although mussolini and adolf hitler did meet on a regular basis. <SEP> The bombing failed to demoralise the British into surrender or significantly damage the war economy. The eight months of bombing never seriously hampered British production and the war industries continued to operate and expand. The Blitz was only authorised when the Luftwaffe had failed to meet preconditions for a 1940 launch of Operation Sea Lion, the provisionally planned German invasion of Britain. By May 1941 the threat of an invasion of Britain had passed, and Hitler's attention had turned to Operation Barbarossa in the East. In comparison to the later Allied bombing campaign against Germany, the Blitz resulted in relatively few casualties; the British bombing of Hamburg in July 1943 inflicted some 42,000 civilian deaths, about the same as the entire Blitz. <SEP> Following the Allied victory in the Second World War, Europe was divided by the Iron Curtain. The countries in Southeastern Europe were dominated by the Soviet Union and became communist states. The major non-communist Southern European countries joined a US-led military alliance (NATO) and formed the European Economic Community amongst themselves. The countries in the Soviet sphere of influence joined the military alliance known as the Warsaw Pact and the economic bloc called Comecon. Yugoslavia was neutal. The Nazi regime under Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, and along with Mussolini's Italy sought to gain control of the continent by the Second World War. <SEP> pavol jantausch (27 june 1870- 29 june 1947) was a czechoslovakian priest and bishop of the roman catholic church. during the second world war he protested the antisemitic policies of the nazi aligned slovak republic (1939–45). <SEP> However Italy's conquests were always heavily contested, both by various insurgencies (most prominently the Greek resistance and Yugoslav partisans) and Allied military forces, which waged the Battle of the Mediterranean throughout and beyond Italy's participation. In July 1943, following the Allied invasion of Sicily, Benito Mussolini was arrested by order of King Victor Emmanuel III, provoking a civil war. Ultimately the Italian empire collapsed after disastrous defeats in the Eastern European and North African campaigns. Italy's military outside of the peninsula itself collapsed, its occupied and annexed territories falling under German control. Italy surrendered to the Allies at the end of the Italian Campaign.
