D-Day (literally means Day-Day) had an enormous effect on the second world war. In essence it was the beginning of the end. D-Day is the day when the allies launched a counter attack against the Germans and secured a foot hold on the beaches of Normandy. From there the counter attacked the German offensive and liberated Europe.

AnswerGermany was already doomed to defeat long before D-day, and after D-day still kept her best troops in the East to fight the greater threat of the Soviets, but it did hasten the inevitable.

The biggest effect was that it stopped more of Europe from falling into Communist hands. When Stalin was congratulated on reaching Berlin he replied "Czar Alexander got to Paris."

AnswerOn June 6, 1944, a date known ever since as D-Day, a mighty armada crossed a narrow strip of sea from England to Normandy, France, and cracked the Nazi grip on Western Europe. Germany had to be taken down in some way. They were doomed. AnswerD-Day had to succeed for three very important reasons:

1. Germany and Russia were carrying on secret peace negotiations through Switzerland from 1943-44. With the failure of D-Day Normandy,1944 both Germany and Russia knew the Western allies would not be able to think about another invasion of western Europe for at least another two years. Hitler would be able to transfer the bulk of his forces in the west to the east and with the added troops he was sure that Russia would agree to peace negotiations. 2. Germanys jet fighter technology was ahead of the allies and jet fighter production had started already began. With D-Day failure, that German would have time to produce jet fighters in large quantities and that would have put an end to the Allied Bombing campaign by the end of 1945. 3. German Scientist were pretty advanced with their Nuclear and rocket Programs and would have been the first nation capable of launching a nuke by rocket or dropping a nuke. Scary.

D-Day robbed the Germans of valuable time and any chance of a victory through negotiations.

AnswerGreatly. this allowed the allies to gain a foot hold on part of Europe's coast which allowed them to send in more and more troops each day. ANSWERthe D-Day landings had an incredible effect on the course of WW2. they acted as a catalyst to speed up the war but also caused many long and short term effects such as the Berlin Wall, the cold war and the united nations
