The Blitz was a bombing campaign by Nazi Germany against the United Kingdom during the Second World War. It lasted for eight months, from 7 September 1940 to 11 May 1941. The name is a shortened form of Blitzkrieg, a term used in the popular press to describe a German style of surprise attack used during the war.
