                    [Summary] => The term blackout started in Great Britain during World War II. From the outbreak of the war against Germany on September 3, 1939 until April 23, 1945, it was obligatory throughout Britain to cover all windows and skylights before dark so that no light would show outside. Even moving vehicles travelled at night with very dim lights. This was to prevent enemy planes from spotting the city and its targets. The term was introduced in the Philippines when the Japanese first bombed Manila and other places along with Pearl Harbor.
