The Yalta Conference took place in a Russian resort town in the Crimea from February 4–11, 1945, during World War Two. At Yalta, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin made important decisions regarding the future progress of the war their joint occupation of Germany and plans for postwar Europe.

At Yalta, Roosevelt and Churchill discussed with Stalin the conditions under which the Soviet Union would enter the war against Japan and all three agreed that, in exchange for potentially crucial Soviet participation in the Pacific theater, the Soviets would be granted a sphere of influence in Manchuria following Japan’s surrender. The Allied leaders also discussed the future of Germany, Eastern Europe and the United Nations.

In the picture above, I decided to add the Japanese Emperor Hirohito, Hitler, and Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini. These leaders of the Axis Powers along with biggest opponents of the Allied Powers coming together would have altered history. With the intention to discuss plans for a peace agreement among their countries, this meeting might have prevented further conflicts in Germany and Eastern Europe.
