Travel back in time to World War 2 to experience life in Germany and the impact the war had on so many people at that time, including a young girl named Anne Frank.
The war began when the UK and France declared war on Germany. This was after German troops led by Adolf Hitler had invaded Poland on 1 September 1939 to claim land there as their own.
