Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When Japan attacked the U.S. Naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941, the United States found itself in the war it had sought to avoid for more than two years. Mobilizing the economy for world war finally cured the depression.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Great Depression was a worldwide economic depression that lasted 10 years. GDP during the Great Depression fell by nearly half. A combination of the New Deal and World War II lifted the U.S. out of the Depression.

Detailed explanation-3: -Why does The Great Depression end when the United States enters World War II? President Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal was already having a positive effect on some of the worst aspects of The Great Depression, but it was America’s entrance into World War II that made the Depression officially end.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Great Depression was a contributing factor to dire economic conditions in Weimar Germany which led in part to the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. Within the United States, the repercussions of the crash reinforced and even strengthened the existing restrictive American immigration policy.

Detailed explanation-5: -Explanation: Much in the same way WWI was the cause of the Roaring ‘20s, WWII ended the Great Depression. As a result of WWII, many people were hired to work in the military, in positions varying from engineering to actually fighting, which helped to lower unemployment.
