From the Paper:

"The Second World War began with only one objective in mind: world domination. With Germany, Italy and Japan having incurred massive losses in the First World War, they sought revenge and redemption. It is rightly said that, "The Second World War was a war of ambitions and denials." the ambitions obviously belonged to the three precipitators while the denial was also encountered by them. They were denied their over ambitious goals with the help of Allies, namely Britain, France and the US."
