German menace that threatened the world between the years of
1933 and 1945 brought together one of the greatest concentrations
of power in history. The Grand Alliance between the leaders
of Great Britain, the United States, and the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics, respectively Churchill, Roosevelt, and
Stalin, was one of necessity. The relationship between these
men, known as The Big Three, was calculated by each of them
according to the timely needs of their nations, and the rapid
shift from friendship to animosity once the German threat subsided
is an interesting example of how realism and diplomacy work. |
