HistoryGuy. Control of the Atlantic Ocean was essential to Great Britain's success in World War II because D. Britain was an island nation dependent "on shipping for the supplies it needed." Without access to Atlantic shipping lanes, Britain would have starved and been without war supplies from the Americans. (hope this helps )

Britain was an island nation dependent on shipping for the supplies it needed.

Authority of the Atlantic Ocean was imperative to Great Britain’s victory in World War II because Britain was an isle country subordinate on transportation for the supplies it demanded. Without admittance to Atlantic freight passages, Britain would have perished and been externally out of war supplies from the Westerners.
