World War II in Europe and the Pacific Every Day

Post by EmperorTigerstar »

About half a year ago, I made a video showing the changing front lines of World War II in Europe every single day. Well, I made another video showing Europe and the Pacfic every day. Please tell me what you think!
DETAILED KEY:
Maroon: Axis Power members, their dependencies/colonies, and annexed lands.
Burgundy: Areas militarily occupied by the Axis Powers.
Red: Axis puppet states.
Pink: Axis gains during that day.
Brown: Surrendered axis Governments (not armies)
Blue: Allied powers and areas occupied by the allies.
Light Blue: Allied powers not at war with Japan.
Sky blue: Allied gains for that day.
Purple colors (left to right): Finland, occupied by Finland, and Finnish gains that day.
Dark Green: The USSR before it joined the allies and annexed lands.
Green: Areas militarily occupied by the USSR before it joined the allies.
Light Green: Soviet gains for that day.
Dark Orange: The Japanese Empire before joining the Axis Powers.
Orange: Japanese occupied lands before joining the Axis.
Light Orange: Japanese puppet states before joining the Axis.
Extra light Orange: Japanese gains for that day before joining the Axis.
Dark Lime Green: China before joining the allies.
Lime Green: Chinese gains for that day.
Song and speech credits are at the end of the video.

Not bad. It must have taken a hella lotta work. It was interesting seeing colors grow across the map, because I could put myself in the time. How dreadful it would have been to follow this through daily newspapers.

It was really fascinating to watch Germany chip into western Russia and then see that all evaporate in the winter of '42-'43.

Great work, tough times for the UK in 1940. Shows how mad it was for Hitler to invade Russia. All that land, and to deal with the Russian winter too.
