This is a nice start. It's not clear to me though what this article is about. Are you planning to insert it into the GDP article or a WWII article? I don't understand the focus on empires. The United States is not an empire. Nor is Italy or France. I also don't understand the inclusion of eastern European countries like Albania. A little more clarity would be helpful. In its current form, you've just included a table with data on GDP in some of the countries that fought during WWII. The data are interesting and could help tell an interesting story. But what's the story about? Mcassell04 (talk) 16:19, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello, overall this is a great start, and I love how you guys included a graph with accumulative data to determine how GDP rises and fall over the course of World War Two. Just an idea, maybe it would be useful to include how this ties into The Great Depression, because it happened around the same time period and how the economy's GDP ties into it.

Very interesting article, the chart is very helpful to show the changes in GDP during the War. I would suggest incorporating the industries that help contribute to GDP. Also consider incorporating the government policy when it came to spending, how much was consumption, net exports, and investment. I think that it could help complete the article in a big way. Overall, great job! (Madeleine Lane).


All together I think it is a strong topic, I never thought of the United States GDP during WWII until I read your article. If I could give any advice I would say to watch your filler words. Especially in the introduction, it could just be me but I do not think it flows as well as it should.

As far as the graph goes I really like it and I think it is a great aspect to have considering most individuals are visual learners. It gives the article a great vibe that every learner can look at it and understand and comprehend what the authors are trying to get across. Hengle (talk) 00:28, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Hannah EngleReply
