The question about deciding the shape of post-war Europe is unfair. The three leaders of UK, USA and USSR met in Yalta to discuss it, but the details were thrashed out (including France) in the Potsdamm Conference, which was also a possible answer. BTW my favourite trivia fact about the Potsdam Conference is that the UK Prime Minister at the start of the Conference was Churchill. The UK General Election was in the middle of the conference, so Churchill returned to London on the evening of the election expecting to return to Germany the next day. He didn't return. Clement Attlee won the election and flew out to Potsdamm instead of Churchill.

It is usually well-known that the Poles broke it but Turings team made it possible to decode them in almost real time as the Germans changed the code frequently so Turing's work was crucial.

German here. 62/ 65... I'm not into the the Amercan battles of 1918, cause they are not interesstin'. I'm not sure, how exact the check is about deadly wounds in WWI and I disagree, about Yalta! Why? The Potsdam conference, put the final seal on the end. 2 of the 3 leaders from Yalta were not in service anymore. So, imo, this in Potsdam was the decision, about Europe. To devide Germany, was about to devide Europe...

It is a pity that it seems to be such a surprise though they did the initial pioneer work - Turing and his team later developed methods to decode them in almost real time as the Germans changed the code all the time so their work was vital.

For question 39, the correct answer, per several sources including Britannica, is either the Nonaggression Pact or the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. It has been called several other names as well. To my mind, though commonly called the Molotov-Ribbontrop Pact, this is less correct as those were the names of the actors who negotiated it but technically it was not called that.

Spoiler alert for Question 32 - so don't read further if you haven't reached that question, but it brought to mind something I read forty years ago when I was obsessed with learning what I could about the Great War. Georges Clemenceau, PM of France after WW1, famously remarked, after receiving Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points for Peace, "Le bon Dieu s'est contenté de dix!" ("The good Lord made do with Ten!").
