He helped industrialize Russia; before Hitler attacked. He brought a third front to germany's sides and ultimately helped us win the war ( or much faster) against nazi germany. Also at the end of World War 2 he brought the iron curtain over east berlin which resulted in i.e. cold war, Korea's split, Communism's spread, china and North Korea and Vietnam are still communism today also

Stalin was the leader of the U.S.S.R during WW2 and played a couple of critical roles (or at least, his country did).

To start, remember that NAZIs were national socialists (at least in the beginning), and so had a natural affinity for the communists of the U.S.S.R. In the early part of the war and the time leading up to it, there was a non-aggression pact signed between the two countries and they essentially worked as allies. When the scope of Nazism changed to include communists, Hitler launched a surprise attack on Russia.

This war on two fronts that Hitler tried to fight was probably the GREATEST factor in the fall of Nazi-occupied Europe. They just didn't have the man power, money or equipment to hold off the Allied invasions on the west coast (Normandy), Africa and the Russian front. They were spread too thin and vital resistance groups were able to take advantage of it.

A two-year degree is an Associate Degree, which is offered by community colleges and some universities. A two-year program generally requires four semesters of full-time attendance. Visit your local community college or contact a university business school to find out if they offer an AD in various business majors. You can also check online for a school's degree offerings.

By switching to the Allied powers in the middle of the war, Stalin separated the European and Pacific Theaters, making both easier to defeat.
