Winter War – 1939-1940

This was a war between the Soviet Union and Finland. It began with a Soviet invasion of Finland on 30 November 1939, three months after the outbreak of World War II, and ended three and a half months later with the Moscow Peace Treaty on 13 March 1940. Despite superior military strength, especially in tanks and aircraft, the Soviet Union suffered severe losses and initially made little headway.

This is a one-off video by Kings and Generals. Among their many videos, we selected the ones on major wars and grouped them here.


Our goal in presenting these videos on this website is to select the best ones and arrange them in an orderly presentation. Here’s more videos on History Moments by Kings and Generals.
