What was blitzkrieg and kamikaze?

Blitzkrieg, meaning "lightning war" in German, was a military tactic used by the Nazis during World War II that emphasized rapid and coordinated attacks by air and ground forces to quickly overwhelm the enemy. This strategy relied on speed, surprise, and the effective use of tanks and aircraft. On the other hand, kamikaze refers to the Japanese suicide pilots who flew aircraft loaded with explosives into enemy ships during the war, aiming to cause maximum damage at the cost of their own lives. Both tactics exemplified the extreme measures taken by their respective nations during the conflict.
