Hi Although we still refer to the US as having "allies" (most notably Britain, France, Germany and Japan, the terms Allied and Axis powers refers strictly to World War 2 when the Axis powers were Germany, Italy and Japan, and the Allies were pretty much everyone else. In Vietnam, the fighting was solely between VietNamese soldiers known as the Viet Cong, and American forces. No allies, no axis. Phil

The Axis fought the Allies. The Allies were many countries, some of which were only involved for part of the war. Chief amongst the Allies were Great Britain, her Empire and Commonwealth, the USSR, the USA and France. But the Axis countries also fought countries such as Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, Thailand (it was called Siam then), China, Greece etc. So World War Two was truly a world war.
The main ones Allies: the United States, Great Britian, France, Canada, Russia (the USSR) (also a myriad of other nations like Australia, Poland, etc.) Axis: Germany, Italy and Japan (also other nations like Romania, Austria etc.)

Code breaking was a significant part of World War II because it helped the Allies win over the Axis.
The main countries that fought on the Axis side (at least for part of the war) were Germany, Japan, Italy, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Thailand. In some cases, countries who were occupied (such as Vichy France) cooperated with the occupying forces and fought the Allies, at least until the Axis armies had been removed.
