This is a montage image I created for the World War II Main Page in Wikipedia. This was done because there was a consensus among users that the previous picture of the Nagasaki bomb was not adequate. The image is a montage of other pictures found in Wikimedia.

Notes on the pictures used in the montage:

sv: Information om bilderna i montaget:

  • Överst: Allierad landstigning på D-Dagen 1944
  • Övre vänster: SS-soldater marscherar in i Dornbirn, Vorarlberg, Österrike, 15 Mars 1938
  • Övre höger: Ingången till Auschwitz
  • Nedre vänster: Atombomben över Nagasaki 1945
  • Nedre höger: Sovjetiska flaggan över riksdagshuset i Berlin 1945

[edit] Image Selection Reasons

The choice of pictures is really the result of a quite long discussion: Image Discussion. The emphasis is to primarily illustrate different aspects of the war (e.g. fighting, politics, civilian impact) rather than the various theaters of war. Thus, the intention of the montage is not to cover every theater or nation - it's impossible. Furthermore are there no intentions to select - or position - the pictures in accordance with military casualties or general war effort.

Main reasons for the selection of images:

  1. D-day: Very known & very important multi-national battle, including USA, Britain, Canada, Poland, Germany and many other nationalities. One important beginning of the end of the Nazi era.
  2. Nazis marching: Easily recognizable & very important aspect, since this was the supreme main reason the war started. It also symbolizes the psychological factors and the indoctrinations of the totalitarian regimes.
  3. Death camp: Easily recognizable & important aspect describing one of the greatest civilian impacts.
  4. Atom bomb: Easily recognizable & very important aspect describing the huge development in weapon technology and the start of the Cold War. It also marks the battle between Japan and USA and the end of the war in the Pacific.
  5. Soviet flag in Berlin: Easily recognizable & marks the battle between Germany and USSR, the huge Soviet effort and the end of the war in Europe. It is also a marker of the start of the Soviet influence in East Europe.
