WHY IS SHE IMPORTANT IN THE HISTORY?



SHE IS VERY IMPORTANT because she is the said the history for his family in the second world war.

You prop the fact that a girl like anne frank was in this situation, it is something that nobody would think or that would not happen for the mind of the persons. Nevertheless she, on having seen the situation for the one that was crossing his family wrote this diary that seeks to show the reality of the Jews in the second world war (for it of the nasis). For this reason she is that is important in the history.

WHAT HAPPENING IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR?

The Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII or WW2) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including all of the great powers, organised into two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. The war involved the mobilisation of over 100 million military personnel, making it the most widespread war in history. In a state of "total war", the major participants placed their complete economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Over seventy million people, the majority of them civilians, were killed, making it the deadliest conflict in human history.
The Soviet Union and the United States emerged from the war as the world's superpowers. This set the stage for the Cold War, which lasted for the next 45 years. The United Nations was formed in the hope of preventing another such conflict. The self-determination spawned by the war accelerated decolonization movements in Asia and Africa, while Western Europe itself began moving toward integration.

Invasion:
On September 1st, 1939, 1.8 million German troops invaded Poland on three fronts; East Prussia in the north, Germany in the west and Slovakia in the south. They had 2600 tanks against the Polish 180, and over 2000 aircraft against the Polish 420. Their "Blitzkrieg" tactics, coupled with their bombing of defenceless towns and refugees, had never been seen before and, at first, caught the Poles off-guard. By September 14th. Warsaw was surrounded. At this stage the poles reacted, holding off the Germans at Kutno and regrouping behind the Wisla (Vistula) and Bzura rivers. Although Britain and France declared war on September 3rd. the Poles received no help - yet it had been agreed that the Poles should fight a defensive campaign for only 2 weeks during which time the Allies could get their forces together and attack from the west.

The Cost:

The Poles are the people who really lost the war. Over half a million fighting men and women, and 6 million civilians (or 22% of the total population) died. About 50% of these were Polish Christians and 50% were Polish Jews. Approximately 5,384,000, or 89.9% of Polish war losses (Jews and Gentiles) were the victims of prisons, death camps, raids, executions, annihilation of ghettos, epidemics, starvation, excessive work and ill treatment. So many Poles were sent to concentration camps that virtually every family had someone close to them who had been tortured or murdered there.
There were one million war orphans and over half a million invalids.
The country lost 38% of its national assets (Britain lost 0.8%, France lost 1.5%). Half the country was swallowed up by the Soviet Union including the two great cultural centres of Lwow and Wilno.
Many Poles could not return to the country for which they has fought because they belonged to the "wrong" political group or came from eastern Poland and had thus become Soviet citizens. Others were arrested, tortured and imprisoned by the Soviet authorities for belonging to the Home Army.
Although "victors" they were not allowed to partake in victory celebrations.
Through fighting "For Our Freedom and Yours" they had exchanged one master for another and were, for many years to come, treated as "the enemy" by the very Allies who had betrayed them at Teheran and Yalta.

ANNE FRANK


Annelies Marie "Anne" Frank ( pronunciation (help•info)) (12 June 1929 – early March 1945) was a Jewish girl born in the city of Frankfurt am Main in Weimar Germany. She gained international fame posthumously following the publication of her diary which documents her experiences hiding during the German occupation of the Netherlands in World War II.

Anne and her family moved to Amsterdam in 1933 after the Nazis gained power in Germany, and were trapped by the occupation of the Netherlands, which began in 1940. As persecutions against the Jewish population increased, the family went into hiding in July 1942 in hidden rooms in her father Otto Frank's office building. After two years, the group was betrayed and transported to concentration camps. Seven months after her arrest, Anne Frank died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, within days of the death of her sister, Margot Frank. Her father Otto, the only survivor of the group, returned to Amsterdam after the war to find that her diary had been saved, and his efforts led to its publication in 1947. It was translated from its original Dutch and first published in English in 1952 as The Diary of a Young Girl.

The diary, which was given to Anne on her 13th birthday, chronicles her life from 12 June 1942 until 1 August 1944. It has been translated into many languages, has become one of the world's most widely read books, and has been the basis for several plays and films. Anne Frank has been acknowledged for the quality of her writing, and has become one of the most renowned and most discussed victims of the Holocaust. take from page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Frank

THE LAUGH
Let's speak now a bit about the different forms of expression that the human being has. we are possesses the gift of the word, which is the language that easier he is thinking about dominating. The history us resembles big speakers who in some moment even could have submitted to the big masses of population. The language has been the most prompt vehicle for the human communication, this form of expression has been the one that has identified the rational being. Another form of expression is the corporal gesture, already be with some portion of the face or with someone of the rest of the body. There exists a form of expression that characterizes in very peculiar form the human being and this one is precisely the LAUGH.
The LAUGH is the movement of the mouth and other parts of the face that demonstrate happiness. The LAUGH is an expression of an emotion due to diverse intellectual and affective elements, appears principally in a series of more or less noisy aspirations, depending largely of the contractions of the diaphragm and accompanied of involuntary contractions of the facial muscles and resonance of the pharynx and the veil of the palate. The LAUGH is provoked by something that moves the spirit, by virtue of her jocular, ridiculous or pleasant character. Apart from the moral reasons that they her excite, the LAUGH can recognize as origin simple reflexes. We all have laughed lucky
THIS ONE IS MY CAMPAIGN " SAVING OF THE WATER " DONE IN MY HOUSE














MY DIARY

Today is day very nice. I am think that all things are thanks to God, but why does God gives me all this joy and happiness in my life? It is simple. I am his and I am a daughter being used in everything that I am doing for him I think everything is by and for the God. it´s rainy day, staffing at the sky. I am thinking that I´m feeling "sick", I think a little bit of everything, and I seeks answers, to every thought is confused, is difficult. At the school I am learning things for my future that are very important. But why? I don´t watch TV instead of being in this place surrounded by people who are don´t even know.

The only thing I desire is to take a bit of rest , talking, listening to my music, eating and laughing.I don´t want to think about tomorrow or on efforts, every day a just want to live as God wants it and be completely happy with the things I do and a feel proud that more than challenges offered when I make up. in the meaning so I am happy to be a woman, but I want to make a stop to check my life
