Who won the blitz war?

The term "Blitz War" typically refers to the intense aerial bombing campaign during World War II, particularly the German Luftwaffe's attacks on Britain from 1940 to 1941, known as the Blitz. Ultimately, the Allies, particularly Britain, emerged victorious by successfully defending against the bombings and maintaining their military and civilian morale. The failure of the Blitz to achieve its objectives contributed to the eventual defeat of Nazi Germany in the war.
