AP Success - AP World History: Yalta Conference and a Liberated Europe
The Yalta Conference took place in February 1945, during World War II, and was attended by the leaders of the United States, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union.
The establishment of order in Europe and the rebuilding of national economic life must be achieved by processes which will enable the liberated peoples to destroy the last vestiges of nazism and fascism and to create democratic institutions of their own choice. This is a principle of the Atlantic Charter - the right of all people to choose the form of government under which they will live. . .
