France suffered tremendous losses in WWI with over 1.6 million deaths. In the interwar period, France prioritized rebuilding and weakening Germany through occupation of the Ruhr Valley and demanding reparations. However, economic instability and the rise of extremism weakened the French government. By 1939, France was unprepared for another war despite efforts to rearm, remaining politically divided in the late 1930s.
The document discusses several key events that led to the start of World War II:
1) Germany's invasion of neighboring countries like Poland and Czechoslovakia violated the Treaty of Versailles and emboldened Hitler, while Britain and France's policy of appeasement failed to stop German aggression.
2) Japan's invasion of Manchuria in 1931 showed the League of Nations' inability to enforce its authority and emboldened other aggressive nations like Italy and Germany.
3) The global economic crisis of the Great Depression destabilized Europe and increased nationalism, militarism, and support for dictators like Hitler and Mussolini who scapegoated minorities and promised to return countries to greatness.
Obstacles to german unification austria strengthmrmarr
Until 1848, Austria dominated the German Confederation and opposed German unification as it threatened its multi-ethnic empire. Austria was also wary of Prussian dominance over a unified Germany given their religious differences and Prussia's exclusion of Austria from the Zollverein trade agreement. The 1848 revolutions weakened Austria's position and while it initially chaired unification attempts, once order was restored Austria withdrew support to defeat unification, though other states also opposed a fully united Germany for their own interests.

Georges Clemenceau was the French prime minister during the Versailles peace negotiations after World War 1. He was nicknamed "Le Tigre" or "Tiger" due to his uncompromising "pitbull" style of diplomacy. Clemenceau wanted Germany severely punished and weakened to prevent future invasions of France, taking a harsher position than the other Allied leaders Lloyd George and Wilson. However, even the punitive Treaty of Versailles did not satisfy Clemenceau, as he felt Germany might still pose a threat.
