Germany, led by Hitler, began invading surrounding countries using the tactic of blitzkrieg ("lightning war") to quickly take their land, seeking lebensraum ("living space"). This eventually led to World War II when Germany attacked Poland in 1939. Germany allied with Italy and Japan to form the Axis Powers, opposed by the Allied forces of France, Great Britain, and later the United States. Hitler had also signed a non-aggression pact with Stalin but later betrayed this pact when Germany invaded the Soviet Union in 1941.

Appeasement
The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany after WWI, including war guilt, reparations, disarmament, and territorial losses. Germany resented these terms. The League of Nations failed to prevent German and Italian expansionism in the 1930s, including Germany remilitarizing the Rhineland, annexing Austria and Czechoslovakia, and Italy invading Ethiopia. Seeking to avoid war, Britain and France pursued a policy of appeasement by allowing these expansions. However, when Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Britain and France were obligated by treaty to declare war, beginning WWII.

This document discusses Neville Chamberlain's policy of appeasement in dealing with Hitler at the 1938 Munich Conference. It provides Chamberlain's speech to Parliament explaining his reasons for favoring appeasement, hoping it would allow a peaceful solution and avoid war over Czechoslovakia. However, Churchill and others warned that appeasement would not stop German aggression and would lose opportunities to limit Nazi power. Historians later argued the Munich Agreement was unnecessary as Czech defenses were strong and German generals may have removed Hitler if he pressed forward.

HISTORY IGCSE CONTENT - 20TH CENTURY OPTION - FAIRNESS OF THE TREATIES 1919-1...
Thomas Woodrow Wilson was the U.S. president during World War 1 who initially kept the U.S. out of the war but later led the country into it in 1917. He was an idealist who hoped to make the world "safe for democracy" and devised the Fourteen Points to form the basis for a just and lasting post-war peace. However, some of his ideas like national self-determination would be difficult to implement in the complex ethnic mix of Eastern Europe. He took a detached view as an American leader not directly invaded by the war and aimed for open diplomacy and arms reductions to reduce causes of future conflicts.
Riseofhitler ppt
Hitler turned the Chancellorship into a dictatorship through several key steps between 1933-1934:
1) After being appointed Chancellor in 1933, Hitler used the Reichstag fire to convince Hindenburg to sign the Enabling Act, granting Hitler emergency powers and allowing him to ban other political parties.
2) With other parties banned, Hitler established himself as the sole leader of Germany through the Night of the Long Knives in 1934, in which he had SA leader Ernst Rohm and other political rivals killed.
3) Upon Hindenburg's death later in 1934, Hitler combined the roles of Chancellor and President, taking the title of Führer and cementing his dictatorship over Germany.

Hitler's ideology of Lebensraum led to the occupation of Austria and invasion of Poland starting WWII. In 1939, the Hitler-Stalin pact agreed for Germany and the Soviet Union to not attack each other, though Hitler did not honor this. Britain and France appeased Hitler by allowing Germany to take the Sudetenland, but this failed to achieve peace. The major powers of WWII were Germany, Italy, and Japan as the Axis powers and the US, France, Britain, and Soviet Union as the Allied powers. Blitzkrieg referred to Germany's fast and mobile air and land attacks.

The US at the time remained isolationist and did not want to get involved in European conflicts.
Appeasement
Appeasement was a policy of giving in to aggressive demands of dictators like Hitler to avoid war. It was championed by Prime Minister Chamberlain but opposed by Churchill who argued it would fail to stop further aggression. Arguments for appeasement included that Britain was not prepared for war and wanted to buy time to rearm, while arguments against included that it emboldened dictators and abandoned allies like Czechoslovakia. Appeasement failed to stop German rearmament and Hitler's annexation of territories like Austria, the Sudetenland and eventually invasion of Poland.

Assignment 8
World War II began in 1939 after Germany invaded Poland in violation of the Hitler-Stalin pact that had divided Poland between the two countries. The war involved the Axis powers of Germany, Japan, and Italy against the Allied powers led by Britain, France, and later the Soviet Union and the United States. Key events leading to the war included Hitler's expansionist policies of Lebensraum and Anschluss, Britain and France's failed appeasement policy toward Germany, and tensions left over from World War I.
Causes of World War II
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.

Hitlers foreign policy
Hitler became Chancellor of Germany in 1933 and set out to overturn the Treaty of Versailles. He withdrew Germany from international disarmament talks and began secretly rebuilding the German military. Britain and France responded with appeasement policies, including the Anglo-German Naval Agreement of 1935. Hitler remilitarized the Rhineland in 1936 in violation of treaties but faced no opposition. He annexed Austria in 1938 and demanded control of the Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia later that year, threatening war. At the Munich Conference in 1938, Britain and France agreed to Hitler's demands in the hope of achieving "peace for our time," abandoning Czechoslovakia.

In September 1939, Germany invaded Poland, marking the official start of World War 2, after Britain and France had declared war on Germany.
Outbreak of WWII in Europe
The three key factors that led to the outbreak of World War II in Europe were the policy of appeasement, the weakness of the League of Nations, and Hitler's expansionist foreign policy. The policy of appeasement involved Britain and France making concessions to Hitler in an attempt to avoid war. However, this only emboldened Hitler and failed to stop his aggression. The League of Nations was unable to enforce disarmament or impose effective sanctions, showing that countries could act without consequences. This was seen in Italy's invasion of Abyssinia. Finally, Hitler pursued an increasingly aggressive expansionist foreign policy through the remilitarization of the Rhineland, annexation of Austria and Czechoslovakia, and invasion of Poland
