Windows 10 is the latest iteration of Microsoft's operating system. Desktops with Win 10 and previous versions are what most people typically use, so you'll be assured of the best compatibility and widest selection of third-party software. This also applies to browser plugins, since some only work with Windows. Apple's OS X is currently up to version 10.11 (El Capitan).
World War II (WWII), also called the Second World War, was a global war. It took place from 1939â1945. Most of the world's countries, including all the great powers, fought as part of two military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. The war was fought as a total war, meaning all resources a country had were used in the war, even those that didn't belong to the army, such as factories.
Asking when World War II began is a good way to start a long and passionate debate. Some say it was simply a continuation of the First World War that had theoretically ended in 1918. Others point to 1931, when Japan seized Manchuria from China. Italyâs invasion and defeat of Abyssinia (Ethiopia) in 1935, Adolf Hitlerâs re-militarization of Germanyâs Rhineland in 1936, the Spanish Civil War (1936â1939), and Germanyâs occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1938 are sometimes cited.
