- United Kingdom: The UK was one of the key Allies, and British forces were actively engaged in the war in Europe, Africa, and Asia.
- Soviet Union: The Soviet Union, despite signing a non-aggression pact with Germany initially, became a vital Allied power after the German invasion in 1941.
- China: China was engaged in a prolonged conflict with Japan, and Chinese forces were part of the broader Allied effort in the Pacific.
- Canada, Australia, New Zealand: These Commonwealth nations made substantial contributions to the Allied cause.
- Free French Forces: Led by General Charles de Gaulle, the Free French played a crucial role in the liberation of France and other Allied operations.
- Other European Nations: Various other European nations, such as Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands, and others, contributed to the Allied cause.
This coalition of nations worked together to defeat the Axis powers, ultimately leading to the end of World War II in 1945. The war effort involved significant coordination and collaboration among these diverse nations, and the year 1943 marked a crucial point in the conflict as the Allies gained momentum in both the European and Pacific theaters.
