It was known as the Great Patriotic War in the Soviet Union and some of its successor states while everywhere else it was called the Eastern Front. The battles on the Eastern Front of the Second World War constituted the largest military confrontation in history. They were characterized by unprecedented ferocity and brutality wholesale destruction mass deportations and immense loss of life due to combat starvation exposure disease and massacres. Of the estimated 70-85 million deaths attributed to World War II around 30 million occurred on the Eastern Front including 9 million children. The Eastern Front was decisive in determining the outcome in the European theater of operations in World War II eventually serving as the main reason for the defeat of Nazi Germany and the Axis nations. The two principal belligerent powers were Germany and the Soviet Union along with their respective allies. Though never sending in ground troops to the Eastern Front the United States and the United Kingdom both provided substantial material aid to the Soviet Union in the form of the Lend-Lease program along with naval and air support.
