Thanks, I might just binge it once all the episodes have aired.

To be honest I’ve only seen the first two episodes and they didn’t really grab me.
I enjoyed the books a lot when I read them, but never felt like it would adapt well to TV since so much exposition happens in the main character’s head.
Does it get better in later episodes?

According to Wikipedia WW2 is considered to have started after the invasion of Poland and subsequently UK and France declaring war on Germany, however there were other events beforehand:
The causes of World War II included unresolved tensions in the aftermath of World War I and the rise of fascism in Europe and militarism in Japan. Key events preceding the war included Japan’s invasion of Manchuria in 1931, the Spanish Civil War, the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1937, and Germany’s annexations of Austria and the Sudetenland. World War II is generally considered to have begun on 1 September 1939, when Nazi Germany, under Adolf Hitler, invaded Poland, after which the United Kingdom and France declared war on Germany.
Considering how much the world has changed since then with advances in technology etc., I think WW3 will look very different if it happens.

Iran is one of the oldest settled countries in the world and has a very long history.
Don’t get me wrong, the Islamic regime is definitely not a good guy in all of this either. In fact, I don’t believe theocratic governments or even state religions should be a thing at all.

But I wouldn’t mind Trump being forever remembered in history as the instigator.

That’s why I always leave things for the day after tomorrow.

Meanwhile the US has spent the time fighting each other every election cycle.
