    Primarily due to the harsh conditions of The Treaty of Versailles the German economy was reaching failure. The treaty reduced Germany’s territory by 14 percent and its population by 6.5 million citizens. It created for Germany large minorities outside its new borders and for the time being an unlimited reparations liability (Schwabe, 864). Germany entered a period of severe economic depression and widespread unemployment. After the loss of World War I, Germany was emotionally a battered and broken country. After the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, the German people could not help but feel betrayed and angry at the Treaty’s conditions. It was overall a difficult time for the people of Germany. The Germans’ most painful part of the treaty to accept was the fact that they were ultimately being blamed for the war and the responsibility of causing damage on the others involved. In other words, Germany had to take full responsibility for beginning World War I. The Germans resented the fact that the entire blame of the war was placed on their country. The treaty left many Germans angry, looking for someone to blame for the loss of the war and someone to lead…

    The Treaty of Versailles can lay a strong claim to being responsible for Germany’s turn to Nazism. According to Kunz ‘Above all, the Versailles treaty failed to create a brave new world order and it triggered “World War II”’1. At the end of the First World War Germany was defeated agreeing to unconditional surrender. Although many historian have debated the severity of the treaty and ‘As Andreas Hillgruber has observed, the treaty was “too weak to be a ‘Carthaginian’ peace”’2 and that ‘Germany “could have paid a good deal more if she had chosen to do so”’3. Regardless of the harshness of the treaty, it is undeniable that it left the German public felling bitter and resentful about the reprisals and in particular the ‘war-guilt’ clause, which arguably was unjust and…

    This was mainly due to the United States not wanting to join the League of Nations and because they had neither power nor an army to enforce their commands and laws to keep peace. In order to keep world peace, countries were forced to make appeasements with Germany such as giving up Austria and Sudetenland to them which led to the creation of the Munich pact and Anschluss. The League of Nations was also supposed to keep Mussolini at bay but failed to do that as well for similar reasons. The weakness of the League of Nations eventually led to the rise of other powerful dictators and…

    The Treaty of Versailles played a crucial role in Hitler’s rise to power. Signed on June 28, 1919, the treaty was used to punish Germany for the damages and war crimes Germany committed during WWI. In the treaty, Germany was forced to pay immense war reparations. The Germans saw Hitler as a leader whom could create a solution for their problems and a more unified country. Prussian nobleman, Arnold Freiherr von Vietinghoff- Reisch stated “Hitler for many of us was the savior from the economic and social disaster, the unifier of the German people, the man who was restoring the its honor abroad...”…

    During the 1930’s the world plunged in WW II due to many different reasons such as aggression, appeasement, and collective security. Even though the 1920’s began with a favorable outlook for peace, toward the end of the decade and throughout the 1930’s the clouds of war were forming. Dictators arose in countries that were dissatisfied with the results of WW I. These dictators will be Adolf Hitler, Emperor Hirohito, and Benito Mussolini. All of these leaders will wreak destruction on Europe and Asia and casualties will be in the ten millions. I will explain how this madness came about and what was the cause for this war.…
