World War Brought Sense Bombing Meant Class Families

Question The Second World War
Answer brought another sense of unification and teamwork to the country. Bombing raids meant the conflict felt much closer than it had during the First World War. The evacuation of children from the cities into the countryside meant lower class and upper class families mixed, bringing awareness to the extreme poverty that still existed in cities. Rationing brought everyone to the same level, and created a sense of sharing and cooperation. Similarly, during blackouts and bombing raids, families would come together and help each other if needed. Everyone was at equal risk. Overall, the war nurtured a great community spirit and mentality. This continued after the war, which is why new laws were passed.
