World War I

World War I, lasting from 1914 to 1918, began with the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria on June 28, 1914, sparking Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Serbia. This conflict quickly escalated as major European powers aligned, with Germany declaring war on Russia and France and invading Luxembourg and Belgium. By August, Britain joined against Germany, marking the expansion of hostilities across Europe. Key battles ensued, including the First Battle of Ypres and Battle of Mons in 1914. In subsequent years, notable battles like Verdun, Jutland, and the Somme demonstrated the scale and devastation of trench warfare. U.S. involvement in 1917 marked a turning point, as the Allies launched final offensives in 1918, culminating in an armistice signed by Germany on November 11, 1918.

Pre-World War II

The prelude to World War II (1933–1939) saw Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in 1933 and Japan’s aggressive expansion in Asia. Germany, under Hitler, initiated territorial annexations, including Austria (Anschluss) and Czechoslovakia, while Britain and France engaged in appeasement efforts, notably the Treaty of Munich. However, tensions reached a breaking point in September 1939 when Hitler invaded Poland, leading Britain and France to declare war. This began the "Phoney War" phase, which ended in 1940 as Germany invaded several European nations and launched the Blitzkrieg against France and the Low Countries. Key events included the Dunkirk evacuation and the Battle of Britain.

World War II

World War II (1939–1945) was marked by pivotal battles across Europe, Africa, and the Pacific. Major events included Germany’s invasion of Russia (Operation Barbarossa), Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor, and the Allied victories at Midway, El Alamein, and Stalingrad. The 1944 D-Day invasion in Normandy opened a Western Front, leading to the liberation of Paris and, by 1945, the fall of Berlin. In the Pacific, atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 forced Japan's surrender, officially ending the war on September 2, 1945.

Purple Bolt

Jonathan Kayne was born on September 19, 2002, to Emily and Peter Kayne. At age five, an experiment by his father resulted in Jonathan being struck by lightning, and after recovery, he began showing superhuman speed abilities in 2020.
