Hi prasun9
WW II is singular noun, but "their composition" needs a plural antecedent. Thus, "which" can't modifies "W.W.II".
"which" modifies plural noun - divisions. In this case, "which" does not need to modifies the preceding noun - W.W.II.
In addition, W.W.II does not have "substantial ethnic majorities".
Hope it helps.
