Story

Here you will see the time when the post of Prime Minister of Great Britain was occupied by the Chamberlain. He didn’t make the beautiful game in Europe because very often he tries to negotiate with Hitler behind his allies. And that will lead to the battle with Germany for Norway, where Britain lost the win. On the 7th of May in the year of 1940, an outstanding hearing was held in the lower house of the British Parliament. So, here the vote of confidence take place.

Such a vote was formally obtained, but low odds and the severe criticism make Chamberlain decided to resign. The most viable candidates for the vacant position was Churchill and Halifax. The latter refused the post, so 10 were directed the appointment of king George and Churchill becomes a Prime Minister. So he got the job, not as the leader of parliamentary elections, but thanks to the unusual and quite extraordinary circumstances.

Historians say, that one of the most important merits of Churchill is his adamant determination to continue military action against Hitler. In this time, he was looking for any opportunity to conclude with Britain, at least, a truce. One of his first steps in his new position is to use his power and become a Minister of defense and to have an effective coordination between the Army, Navy, and Airforce.

In July the battle for Britain began. The German air force started to bomb military targets, then began regular bombing of civilians in British cities. In this time, Hitler attempted to make contact with the leadership of Britain and Churchill personally ordered to negotiate.
