Concept note-1: -Perhaps the most famous example of a two-front war was the European theatre during World War II, when Hitler’s Nazi Germany had to deal with the Western Allies on the west and the Soviet Union to the east. The Germans were unable to repel either of the two front’s advances and eventually lost the war.

Concept note-2: -The decisive factors were British capability and determination, but German mistakes, before and during the battle, contributed significantly to the outcome. German rearmament was forbidden by the Treaty of Versailles at the end of World War I, but aircraft development continued under the guise of civil aviation.
