The 'official' War in Europe began in Poland on September 1, 1939. Some historians have argued that the war began much earlier with the Spanish Civil War but September 1st, 1939 is the date accepted when the U.K., France, and Commonwealth nations declared war on Germany in response to the Polish invasion. Allied forces accepted the German unconditional surrender on May 7-8, 1945 at Reims, France.
