To answer your questions in order:\n\nYes, the Soviet Union (which included Russia) was an ally of the US and the British.  The USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, also called the Soviet Union.  Russia was a part of the USSR, but wasn't called Russia then), led by Stalin, signed a non-aggression pact with Hitler (leader of Germany).  This was in force until Hitler broke it and invaded the Soviet Union.  Stalin was taken unawares and unprepared, so Hitler did well at first.  Stalin therefore allied with the British and the US to fight the Germans.  The "cold war" didn't start until after WWII During the jostling for control over the states freed from the Nazis. \n\n*****\n\nThe USSR and the Japanese didn't work together.  The war in Europe against Germany) ended sooner than that in Japan (May 8, 1945 for Germany’s surrender and August 15, 1945 for Japan’s) and the USSR was free to declare war on Japan, which it did.  This was one of the reasons that the US dropped nuclear bombs on Japan.  It wanted to end the war before the Soviet Union forces entered the fighting, who would then stay and have control in that country and region.  \n\nAfter WWII Germany was divided into two halves, appropriately called West and East Germany.  The US, the United Kingdom (the British) and France controlled the West.  The Soviet Union controlled the East.  Germany was two different countries.  The US, UK and France set up a democracy in the West and then left (although the US left troops to guard against an attack from the Soviet Union, and many are still stationed there.  Now the bases are used as staging grounds for operations in the Afghanistan and Iraq).  The country they created was called the Federal Republic of Germany.\n\nThe Soviet Union established a country in the Eastern half, called the German Democratic Republic. This was not democratic though – it was communist.  The Soviet Union had many troops stationed there as well, and had a lot of influence in the Eastern half.  Vladimir Putin, the current President of the Russian Federation, worked in East Germany as a spy when he was part of the KGB (this isn’t a secret – he admits it freely and uses his excellent German in speeches).\n\n*****\nGermany played a very strong role in the War.  They were allied with Japan, but because they had some common enemies in their efforts to expand their territories.  In Europe, the war started when Germany annexed Austria and Czechoslovakia, claiming to be uniting the Germans who lived there (Austrians speak German and there were a lot of Germans in Czechoslovakia.  The moved there in the centuries that it belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Austrian Empire and the Holy Roman Empire, which were all names used at different times to describe the same Empire ruled from the Austrian city of Vienna). At this point there was a lot of nervousness in Europe, as Hitler was using rhetoric such as “Germans need more land to live, which is their birthright.” But the British made a deal with Hitler that they would let him keep those countries if he didn’t go any further.  Hitler agreed, but he invaded Poland anyway, and kept going from there. He took France, Bombed England and wanted to invade, and moved through Eastern Europe.  He also invaded the USSR, as mentioned above.\n\nThe US at this point wasn’t involved.  Hitler made an alliance with the Japanese, who were engaged in their own war of expansion, because both were fighting the British and French (the British had a lot of Colonial holdings in the Pacific, and the French had some, too).  \n\nThe US became involved when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.  The Japanese wanted the US to withdraw from the pacific, but instead the US declared war on the Japanese.  The Japanese and the Germans were allied, so Germany declared war on the US, which then also entered the European war.  It was already helping the UK and the USSR with equipment and logistical support,

Write a note! you must be joking??\nThe Russian revolution brought about a massive change in the way the country was run politically, the Royals were 'Done way with' (quite rightly)!and the people took over, this caused a lot of dissent between various groups of 'People Leaders' these little problems were  'democratically' resolved by the leaders bumping each other off, they then had a USSR! A United  Soviet Socialist Republic! Not Communist, socialist!\nMany Socialist believe Communism will really arrive when all Socialist countries unite under one banner and all adhere to the same form of Socialism, it's not all over yet by a long chalk!\nThat's your note! \nIf you would like to offer me a commission to write a book on the subject I'm open to offers(business is a bit slack at the moment!

In addition to everything rose_n_steel said, (an awesome answer by the way) there's another little known point:  You've heard of "Red Square" in Moscow?  In Russian, it's "Krasnaya Ploshchad'".  The word "krasnyj" now is used simply to mean "red", but in old Russian it also had the meaning of "beautiful".  After the 1917 revolution, many westerners thought that Red Square had been named by the communists.  It hadn't, it had that name when the Kremlin was built and the square finished centuries before.\n\nAnyway - a little Russian trivia for you - hope you enjoyed it.

Memorials are often related to death and destruction: World Trade Center MEMORIAL, Martin Luther King Jr. MEMORIAL or Titanic Wreckage MEMORIAL Bouye.  A monument tends to be built to remember a significant person or event in history or a time period.  The Empire State Building, for example, is a MONUMENT of the booming American economy of the period and the Arc de Triumph is a MONUMENT to military victories.  Of course there is some blurrying between the definitions, but this tends to be the trend:  Memorials: More somber, remembrance.  Monuments: more of a mark of achievement or historic marker.  (and there are some monuments, such as the Washington Monument, which -- although built after Washington's death (so a memorial) is more _symbolic_ of Washington's ideals and the constructs of American freedoms - making it a monument)

Do your own homework kid.  No wonder the rest of the world laughs at the American education system.\n\nI can't tell you what the symbol is.  I don't have the map from your textbook sitting in front of me...which you should.  All maps are different, and the symbols are different from map to map.  \n\nThere is a difference between helping with questions you don't understand or can't solve and doing the work for you.
