What were the 3 most important battles of world war two and why? How did they affect the war?

Battle of the Bulge (December of 1944 to January of 1945)

Battle of Berlin (April to May of 1945)

Battle of Midway (June of 1942)

The Battle of the Bulge was the last major German military offensive in western Europe. The German offensive in the Ardennes region of Belgium was only temporarily successful in halting the Allied advance. During the fighting, captured American soldiers and Belgian prisoners were murdered by Waffen SS units.

However, as the relations between the Western Allies and the Soviet Union soured and the Cold War began, the joint administration of Germany and Berlin broke down. In 1948, the Soviets tried to force the Western Allies out of Berlin by imposing a land blockade on the western sectors-the Berlin Blockade.

The U. S. Navy's decisive victory in the air-sea battle (June 3-6, 1942) and its successful defense of the major base located at Midway Island dashed Japan's hopes of neutralizing the United States as a naval power and effectively turned the tide of World War II in the Pacific
