The Treaty of Versailles was the most important of the peace treaties that brought World War I to an end. The Treaty ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. It was signed on 28 June 1919 in Versailles, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The other Central Powers on the German side of World War I signed separate treaties. Although the armistice, signed on 11 November 1918, ended the actual fighting, it took six months of Allied negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. The treaty was registered by the Secretariat of the League of Nations on 21 October 1919.
The document provides an overview of the Treaty of Versailles, including the learning objectives and key points:
- The Big Three (Clemenceau of France, Lloyd George of Britain, and Wilson of the US) met at Versailles in 1919 to discuss a peace treaty with Germany. Their goals differed - France wanted to severely weaken Germany, Britain wanted a punished but not destroyed Germany, and Wilson wanted a fair treaty and League of Nations.
- The key terms imposed on Germany by the Treaty included loss of land, limits on military, reparations payments, and assigning sole responsibility for WWI. Germany was also required to join the League of Nations.
- There is debate around whether the Treaty was fair

1) The document summarizes key events of World War II from 1939 to 1945, including Germany's invasion of Poland in September 1939, Britain and France declaring war on Germany, Germany's invasion of Western Europe in 1940, Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, and the United States entering the war after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
2) It discusses major battles like Stalingrad in 1942-1943 and conferences between Allied leaders that helped coordinate the war effort against Germany and plan for the postwar period, such as the Atlantic Charter and Yalta Conference.
3) It concludes with Germany's unconditional surrender in May 1945 after Hitler's suicide and the Soviet Union and United States
The document outlines several key causes that led to the start of World War 2 in Europe, including the harsh Treaty of Versailles that left Germany humiliated after WWI. This led to the rise of fascism under Hitler and the Nazi party in Germany. Hitler aggressively expanded German territory by remilitarizing the Rhineland and annexing Austria and Czechoslovakia through appeasement by Britain and France. The Great Depression created economic hardship and unstable governments. Japan also increasingly expanded its empire into China. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Britain and France declared war on Germany, marking the start of World War 2.
The document provides background on the Italian Campaign from 1943-1945. Over 100,000 Canadians served in Italy during this period. The Allies invaded Sicily in July 1943 with over half a million troops in an amphibious assault. Canadians fought through difficult terrain and conditions to push German forces back. The fall of Mussolini in September 1943 led Italy to surrender, but Germany continued defending the country. Key battles for the Canadians included the fierce street fighting in Ortona in December 1943 and the campaign until the Allies liberated Rome in June 1944. Fighting in Italy continued until May 1945 and resulted in over 6,000 Canadian deaths and 25,000 wounded.
The immediate causes of World War II were Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany in 1933 and his subsequent violations of the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler invaded Poland on September 1, 1939 without a declaration of war, prompting Britain and France to declare war on Germany. Germany used the innovative "blitzkrieg" tactic of lightning-fast combined arms attacks to quickly defeat Poland, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium, and force France to surrender in 1940. The British rescued 338,000 Allied troops from encirclement at Dunkirk in May-June 1940 in what was considered a "miracle." On June 22, 1940, France signed an armistice with Germany dividing the country into German-occupied and Vich

The document provides an overview of the long term causes that led to the outbreak of World War 2 in Europe in 1939. It discusses the Treaty of Versailles, the failure of the League of Nations to enforce the treaty and prevent German rearmament, the policy of appeasement towards Hitler's actions, and Hitler's military expansion starting with remilitarization of the Rhineland in 1936.
