[edit] History

The World War II European Theater of Operations is well known as "THE BIG ONE", and has been documented with plenty of background material and quite frankly far too much information than space permits within this portal. This portal will attempt to document the forces involved in the European Theater of Operations only and a separate portal will be created for the Pacific Theater of Operations.

[edit] Setting

The European theater took place on the European continent and ranged from England (Battle of Britain) to France, Italy, Poland, Russia, and North Africa.

[edit] Factions

Each faction has its own portal, which will further lead you to force lists, background material, and more.
