World War II (WWII or WW2), also known as the Second World War, was a global war. It is generally considered to have lasted from 1939 to 1945, although some conflicts in Asia that are commonly viewed as becoming part of the world war had begun earlier than 1939. It involved the vast majority of the world's nations—including all of the great powers—eventually forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. It was the most widespread war in history, and directly involved more than 100 million people, from more than 30 different countries. In a state of "total war", the major participants threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Marked by mass deaths of civilians, including the Holocaust, the Three Alls Policy, the strategic bombing of enemy industrial and/or population centers, and the first use of nuclear weapons in combat, it resulted in an estimated 50 million to 85 million fatalities. These made World War II the deadliest conflict in human history.

The causes of global warming have grown therefore the effects have coincidental outcomes which have been rapidly escalating.
Global warming refers to an unequivocal and continuing rise in the average temperature of Earth's climate system.
The effects of an increase in global temperature include a rise in sea levels and a change in the amount and pattern of precipitation, as well as a probable expansion of subtropical deserts. Warming is expected to be strongest in the Arctic, with the continuing retreat of glaciers, permafrost and sea ice. Other likely effects of the warming include more frequent extreme weather events including heat waves, droughts and heavy rainfall; ocean acidification; and species extinctions due to shifting temperature regimes. Effects significant to humans include the threat to food security from decreasing crop yields,the significant impact on the sustainability of water, and the loss of habitat from inundation.
Following the events of the 2014 Ukrainian Revolution, a secession crisis began on Ukraine's Russian-leaning Crimean Peninsula. In late February 2014, unidentified armed forces began to take over the Crimean Peninsula in Ukraine. Ukraine and Western observers identified the gunmen as Russian Special Forces and allied paramilitaries.
Russia, which has various strategic interests in and historical ties to Crimea, insists that the forces did not include Russian troops, but only local self defense forces, and within the treaty's limits prior to the referendum and reunification of Crimea with Russia. Their subsequent open involvement was said to be in response to the will of the local population and as a humanitarian effort to protect ethnic Russians in the region.
Association football, commonly known as football or soccer, is a sport played between two teams of eleven players with a spherical ball. It is played by 250 million players in over 200 countries, making it the world's most popular sport. The game is played on a rectangular field with a goal at each end. The object of the game is to score by using any part of the body besides the arms and hands to get the football into the opposing goal.
The goalkeepers are the only players allowed to touch the ball with their hands or arms while it is in play and then only in their penalty area. Outfield players mostly use their feet to strike or pass the ball, but may use their head or torso to strike the ball instead. The team that scores the most goals by the end of the match wins. If the score is tied at the end of the game, either a draw is declared or the game goes into extra time and/or a penalty shootout depending on the format of the competition. Association football is governed internationally by the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) which organizes a World Cup every four years.
