Hitler started world war two because the treaty of versaille made germany pay money to other countries that fought in world war one. Remember capitalization! World war two was started by Hitler invading Poland and Britain along with France, which declared war on them. “Within a month, Poland was defeated by a combination of of German and Soviet forces…” Germany, France, and Britain kept going at it until the United States was sucked into it and still kept going at it until the horrific bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They all surrendered because they agreed to never use nuclear weapons again.…

The Treaty of Versailles is the main reason for WWII. The harsh war reparations forced on Germany after WWI on top of inflation caused economic hardship worse than the Great Depression in America. The fact that the treaty also forced Germany to decrease their military and give up land upset and broke up Germany. Now to add insult to injury, the Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to accept all responsibility for the war, even though they were not the only country at blame. The Treaty of Versailles sought to punish Germany for WWI and in doing this they set the stage for WWII. The terrible conditions in Germany after WWI because of the treaty left the German people miserable due to the extreme poverty. Unhappy as they were and with a weak republic government Germany looked to a stronger more capable leader, Adolf Hitler.…
The main causes of World War II were nationalistic tensions, unresolved issues, and resentments resulting from the World War I and the interwar period in Europe, plus the effects of the Great Depression in the 1930s.The culmination of events that led to the outbreak of war are generally understood to be the 1939 invasion of Poland by Germany and Soviet Russia and the 1937 invasion of the Republic of China by the Empire of Japan. These military aggressions were the result of decisions made by the authoritarian ruling Nazi elite in Germany and by the leadership of the Kwantung Army in Japan. World War II started after these aggressive actions were met with an official declaration of war and/or armed resistance.…
There are several reasons why World War II began, but one specific cause of the war was politics. After World War I , Germany was placed in a state of depression because of the Treaty of Versailles. They were forced to pay reparations for the war. As a cause, the country had extreme poverty and a weak government. That’s when Adolf Hitler emerges and promised the people of Germany that he’ll lead them out of depression. Hitler was later announced ruler of Germany; he took abuse of his power and declared himself dictator of Germany. Everything went downhill from there.…

The United States was lending money to some countries in Europe to help them In the war, but with the depression they stopped.

World War 2 itself caused redrawing of boundaries and change of political powers. Also had not only been a war in Europe but now included many other countries. Some events that had caused world war 2 would be the U.S. stock market crash, Japan invading Manchuria, Treaty of Versailles, Hitler becoming Chancellor of Germany, German invasion of Poland, Pearl Harbor Attack, and German occupation of the Rhineland. The U.S. stock market crash had led the industrial world and America to fall into the Great Depression. It impacted many countries that would depend on them and their people.…
Throughout history, there has always been conflicts that started within a country, spread to be between two countries and later escalated to become a worldwide problem. There has only been two conflicts throughout time that has escalated to become such a worldwide issue that it has turned into a world war.

It started with discrimination, and then alienation, before persecution and murder occurred.…
Mass murder, a fight between good and evil, a war over resources, countries call to justice; these are usually the words we hear when we consider when we think of September 1st, 1939 and what became known as the tragic Second Great War or World War 2. The war officially started when Germany, under the influence of Adolf Hitler, introduced rapid militarization and a grasp for important resources seized control of Poland. Just two days after the fateful attack, Britain and France declared war on the Third Reich. Now as Britain was off to war, Canada soon followed feeling patriotic towards their once Motherland. As Canada went off to war, there were 2 groups that stood out in the debate for “Canada’s Call for Justice”. These two…
There were numerous aspects that resulted in the decision of having the First World War.

I strongly believe that the cause that had the most significant effect on the outbreak of the World War was the development of alliances across the world.…
There were many social, political, and economic causes of WWII. A political cause was the treaty of Versailles. The treaty of Versailles was when we forced Germany to take the blame for WWI. If they didn’t sign the treaty, Germany would face invasion. As Germany did not start WWI, they felt it was unfair. An economic cause of WWII was the Great Depression. The Great Depression happened world wide. The Great Depression started with the stock market crash. The stock market crash was when people started losing their jobs, homes and money. A social cause of WWII was anti-semitism. Anti-semitism was when there was hatred against Jewish people. Hitler blamed the Jews for all of Germanys problems which triggered WWII.…
The Treaty of Versailles was not the main cause of World War II; although, it did hasten the conflict. This is a result of the provisions caused by German expansion, economic downfall and hyperinflation and the vulnerability of the German people that later led to Hitler and the Fascist party being…
