But wouldn't the eastern front in WWII not be in East Asia?
In WWI it makes sense to use the Eastern front when talking about the German/Austro-Hungarian - Russian front, but in WWII that's quite euro-centric.
- yorwba 8y agoWWI also had fighting in East Asia, e.g. Japan taking Qingdao and various Pacific islands from Germany.
- irishsultan 8y agoUnless I'm mistaken that's not really a front that was active for long, unlike the front between Germany/A-H and Russia.
