Eastern European Front

The Eastern European Front refers to the area of conflict during World War II where the Soviet Union fought against Nazi Germany and its allies. This front stretched from the Baltic Sea in the north to the Black Sea in the south, involving massive battles and significant military campaigns, such as the Siege of Leningrad and the Battle of Stalingrad. The struggle here was marked by immense human loss and hardship, as millions of soldiers and civilians were affected. Ultimately, the Soviet Union's victory helped shift the balance of power in the war, leading to the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945.
