On today’s episode we are talking about the War before the War, or the period of WWII when war had often not officially commenced but was arguably already underway. First The History Guy will talk about the Undeclared War, and incidents between the US and Germany before Pearl Harbor. Then he will talk about the occupation of Iceland - an officially neutral country that the United Kingdom occupied in a move to prevent Germany from securing the strategically vital island. Finally the History Guy will tell the story of several incidents of the “Phoney War,” the period between Hitler’s invasion of Poland and the commencement of actual hostilities on the Western Front.

This is original content based on research by The History Guy. Images in the Public Domain are carefully selected and provide illustration. As very few images of the actual event are available in the Public Domain, images of similar objects and events are used for illustration.


All events are portrayed in historical context and for educational purposes. No images or content are primarily intended to shock and disgust. Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Non censuram.
