    World War II is considered to have started on September 1, 1939 when Germany invaded Poland. Different fronts of the war were finalised at various times during 1945, with the last conflict terminated when the Japanese signed formal surrender documents on September 2, 1945.

    World War 2 officially started in 1939, but only technology ended after the Berlin Wall was talking down in 1989 when East and West Germany were reunified.

    As a result of the Cold War, there was no 'final settlement' or peace treaty between the four occupation powers and Germany as a whole till 1990, but _nobody_ claims that the war lasted till 1990.
