At the end of the Second World War Britain was victorious but weak. Bombing campaigns had destroyed many homes and factories in Britain's cities. Britain was nearly bankrupt having had to spend so much money on the war. 384 000 British soldiers had died alongside 70 000 civilians. In 1945 the British public elected a new government that promised to help Britain to recover.
