Officially, World War II began in Asia when the USA was brought in to the war in December of 1941. However, Japan had been expanding their sphere of influence in Asia long before then. Japan began major imperial expansion in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904, and they continued this trend until they were defeated in World War II. If you lived in China during World War II, you didn't call the war "World War II:" you knew it as the Sino-Japanese War, which began officially in 1937 and lasted until Japan's defeat in 1945.
World War II began in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland.
1 September 1939 is the official start of World War 2. However, Japan invaded China in 1937 and Italy invaded Albania in 1938 - so if you are Chinese or Albanian, you will probably have a different view of when WW2 started.
Technically speaking; WWII (2) began on Sept. 1, 1939 when Germany invaded Poland which resulted in England and France declaring War on Germany.
In the 1930's however, Japan invaded Manchuria and China and while the League of Nations protested this invasion, they did nothing and this proved they were a useless organization, incapable of standing up to military aggression. Then, Italy invaded Ethiopia, and Germany started grabbing more and more land and countries until it invaded Poland and started WW2 (II).
So there is the Official start date of Sept. 1, 1939, but, a lot of people would argue, (with good reason), that WW2 "started" when Japan invaded Manchuria and China and the rest of the world did nothing.
WWII begun on September 1, 1939, when Germany invaded Poland, after which war was declared to Germany by France and by most of the British Commonwealth countries.
Many events are accepted to be the start of World War II, but most historians agree that World War II started on September 1, 1939, when Germany invaded Poland.
