Germany began aggressively expanding its military in violation of the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler sought to gain "living space" or Lebensraum by taking land from countries he viewed as inferior. Germany aided Franco's nationalists in the Spanish Civil War to test its new military tactics. Germany later formed the Axis alliance with Italy and Japan to oppose communism. Despite condemning Germany's rearmament, the League of Nations took no action to stop it. Germany continued expanding by remilitarizing the Rhineland, annexing Austria, and taking the Sudetenland from Czechoslovakia with the appeasement policy of Britain and France proving ineffective at halting German aggression.

World war ii vocabulary
World War 2 began in 1939 after Germany invaded Poland, violating the Treaty of Versailles. Germany formed an alliance with the Soviet Union through the Hitler-Stalin Pact to divide Eastern Europe between them. The major Axis powers of Germany, Italy, and Japan fought against the Allied powers led by Britain, France, Poland, and later the United States. Germany developed new mobile warfare tactics known as Blitzkrieg combining air power, tanks, and motorized infantry that allowed quick victories over opponents.

Hitler justified Germany rearming its military and retaking the Rhineland by claiming that the Treaty of Versailles was too harsh on Germany and left it defenseless, and that the Rhineland rightfully belonged to Germany. He argued that Germany had the right to rebuild its military and retake the Rhineland to undo the unfair treatment of the Treaty of Versailles.
Europe erupts in war
1) Between 1935-1939, Germany and Italy aggressively expanded their territories through military force and intimidation, violating treaties from WWI. They aided Franco in the Spanish Civil War and invaded Ethiopia and Austria.
2) Britain and France pursued a policy of appeasement, hoping to satisfy Hitler's territorial demands and avoid war. They conceded the Sudetenland to Germany at the Munich Agreement in 1938.
3) In 1939, Germany invaded Poland, prompting Britain and France to declare war. After brief fighting, Germany quickly conquered Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France, trapping the Allied forces at Dunkirk.
4) With Western Europe under its control, Germany bombed Britain but

The document provides background information on Hitler's rise to power in Germany and his goals and strategies during World War 2. It summarizes that Hitler sought to abolish the Treaty of Versailles, improve the economy through military service, gain "living space" for Germany, and remove threats from Jews, Communists and other races. It describes the Nazi opposition to Communism and the German conquest of Norway. The document also explains Hitler's "lightning war" strategy and Germany's early victories against Poland, France and in the Battle of Britain during 1940.
Germany 2
The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany after World War 1. It forced Germany to accept war guilt, pay extensive reparations, lost territory and control over its military. Germany was also barred from the League of Nations initially. The German delegation strongly opposed the terms, calling it an execution rather than a negotiation. This fueled outrage in Germany and helped Hitler rise to power by promising to tear up the treaty. Many British also felt the treaty was too harsh, which allowed Hitler to remilitarize Germany.
The end of the war
American President Woodrow Wilson declared war on Germany in April 1917 after German submarines sank several US merchant ships. By summer 1918, the US was sending 10,000 soldiers per day to Europe. In early 1918, Germany launched a major offensive that advanced 60 kilometers towards Paris, but the Allies were able to hold them back. From August to November 1918, the Allies went on the offensive in battles like Amiens and the Somme, pushing the Germans back to their fortified Hindenburg Line. An armistice ending the war was signed on November 11, 1918.
The end of wwi and the treaty of versailles
The Versailles Treaty harshly punished Germany after WWI, including war reparations, loss of territory, demilitarization, and assigning sole blame for starting the war. Germany was required to pay $33 billion in reparations, surrender industrial and colonial assets, and limit its military, severely impacting its ability to generate income to pay the debt. These punitive terms sowed resentment in Germany and contributed to the rise of Hitler and start of WWII.

Several factors led to America adopting a policy of neutrality in the early 1930s. This included war debts from WWI, findings that arms manufacturers profited greatly from the war, and a rise in isolationism. The Neutrality Acts of the 1930s prohibited the sale of arms to countries at war and required warring nations to purchase supplies on a "cash and carry" basis. However, Hitler's aggression in Europe challenged this neutrality. He annexed Austria in 1938 and demanded territory from Czechoslovakia and Poland. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Britain and France declared war, beginning WWII.

Military
The document discusses Nazi Germany's military policies under Hitler between 1933-1939. It describes how Hitler sought to restore Germany's national pride by strengthening the military in violation of the Treaty of Versailles. The Nazis introduced policies such as conscription, increasing the army and navy, developing weapons like tanks, and rearming the Rhineland. They also created the Luftwaffe air force secretly. While these policies made Germany stronger militarily and pleased nationalists, they angered others and ultimately led to war which destroyed the Nazi regime.
The road to wwii
The document summarizes major events from 1919-1941 that led up to World War 2, including the Treaty of Versailles which imposed harsh terms on Germany after WWI, Japan's increasing aggression in Asia, Germany's rearmament and annexation of territories under Hitler, and failed peace efforts such as the League of Nations and appeasement at the Munich Conference. The US initially took a neutral stance but grew closer to Britain through destroyers-for-bases deals and the Lend-Lease Act in preparation for potential entry into the war.

Unit 8 Vocab
This document defines key vocabulary terms from World War II, including Lebensraum, Anschluss, appeasement, the Axis and Allied powers, and Blitzkrieg. It explains that Lebensraum refers to living space, Anschluss was Germany's annexation of Austria in 1938, and appeasement involved giving in to aggression to prevent further conflict. The document also lists the main Axis powers of Germany, Italy, Japan, Romania, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia as well as the initial Allied powers of France, Poland and the UK. Finally, it defines Blitzkrieg as a fast-paced military offense combining tanks, engineers and air power.
Outbreakof war
Britain signed an agreement in March 1939 promising to protect Poland from aggression, but Hitler began demanding territory from Poland. Germany staged a false attack on its own radio station as a pretext for invasion. On September 1, 1939, Germany invaded Poland, and two days later Britain declared war on Germany to uphold its promise to Poland. Winston Churchill was included in the new British war cabinet as First Lord of the Admiralty, the same position he held at the start of World War I.
Start Of WW II
The document discusses Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany's aggression leading up to World War II. It describes Hitler's rise to power in Germany and annexation of Austria and Czechoslovakia. It then covers Germany's invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, which marked the beginning of World War II, as well as Germany's quick defeat of France and other countries using its "Blitzkrieg" tactics in 1940, leaving Britain as the only remaining opponent facing Nazi Germany in Europe.
Lesson 9
The document discusses four main theories for why international peace collapsed in 1939 leading to World War 2: 1) failure of the Treaty of Versailles and League of Nations, 2) Hitler's aggressive foreign policy, 3) the policy of appeasement, and 4) an investigation into which one is most responsible. It then goes on to discuss the terms of the Treaty of Versailles and how it may have led to WWII 20 years later through imposing harsh terms on Germany after WWI.
Week Eleven Lecture
The document summarizes the rise of Nazism in Germany in the 1930s and 1940s. It describes how the Nazis came to power in 1932, disbanded parliament, and gave Hitler dictatorial powers. Hitler then outlawed other political parties and persecuted Jews, Gypsies, and leftists. Germany began militarizing again in violation of the Treaty of Versailles and expanded territorially through annexation. The US initially demilitarized after WWI but began rearming in the late 1930s in response to the growing Axis powers and threats to democracy. FDR delivered a 1941 speech pledging to support democratic countries and make America an "arsenal for democracy."
CAMBRIDGE IGCSE HISTORY REVISION 1 - TREATY OF VERSAILLES
The Treaty of Versailles established terms of peace after World War 1. Georges Clemenceau of France wanted harsh punishment of Germany, while Woodrow Wilson of the US advocated for his 14 Points and League of Nations. David Lloyd George of Britain sought compromise. Key terms included Germany accepting war guilt, severe military restrictions, reparations, and land losses. The treaty established principles that other treaties with Austria, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Turkey followed. It was seen as unfair by Germans but achieved some successes in self-determination like establishing new states, though it also had failures and problems that contributed to future tensions.
Why had international peace collapsed by 1939
By 1939, international peace had collapsed due to Hitler's aggressive actions to expand German territory and defeat communism, as outlined in Mein Kampf. Hitler remilitarized Germany in violation of the Treaty of Versailles starting in 1933. He withdrew from the League of Nations in 1933 and staged a massive arms display in 1935. Hitler continued to consolidate power by annexing Austria in 1938 and demanding the Sudetenland from Czechoslovakia later that year. Britain and France failed to oppose Hitler's moves militarily, emboldening Germany and leading to the invasion of Poland and the start of World War II in 1939.
The Fourteen Points and The Treaty of Versailles
1. The document outlines President Woodrow Wilson's 14 Points, which proposed terms for ending World War 1 including territorial adjustments, reparations, and the creation of a League of Nations to maintain peace.
2. The Treaty of Versailles imposed significant requirements on Germany, including territorial losses, demilitarization, reparations payments, and a clause assigning full blame for the war to Germany.
3. The treaty redrew borders in Europe, limited Germany's military, and established the League of Nations but excluded Germany and Austria from participation.

Causes of wwi
The immediate cause of WWI was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist. However, several underlying long-term factors contributed to the outbreak of war, including a web of alliances that drew more countries into the conflict, imperialism and competition for colonies, the arms race and militarism of European powers, and rising nationalism within and among countries that increased tensions.

Section 2 notes
The document provides a detailed timeline of key events leading up to World War 2 in Europe, beginning with Hitler becoming Chancellor of Germany in January 1933 and continuing until Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941. It describes how Hitler rapidly expanded German territory through rearmament, remilitarization of the Rhineland, and annexation of Austria and Czechoslovakia in violation of the Treaty of Versailles. In August 1939, Germany and the Soviet Union surprisingly signed a non-aggression pact to allow Germany to invade Poland unopposed. Germany then swiftly defeated Western European nations through the tactic of blitzkrieg to occupy France, Netherlands, and much of Western Europe by June 1940.
Task 8.5 Sequence World War I
The document summarizes major events from 1914 to 1918 during World War 1. It describes the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand which sparked the war. Key battles and events on the Western and Eastern fronts are mentioned, including the use of chemical weapons at Ypres in 1915 and the long, costly battles of Verdun and the Somme in 1916. American entry into the war in 1917 and Germany's resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare are noted. The document concludes with the Allied counteroffensives in 1918 and the signing of the Armistice on November 11, 1918, ending the war.

Europe Goes to War
Relations between Britain and Germany deteriorated after the Munich Conference as Hitler continued his military expansion. Germany invaded Poland in September 1939 using lightning-fast "blitzkrieg" tactics to defeat Poland within a month. France adopted a policy of collaboration with Germany after its defeat in June 1940. Germany then targeted Britain but was unable to invade due to the English Channel and powerful British navy, instead launching an aerial assault known as the Battle of Britain. Though outnumbered, the British Royal Air Force held off the German Luftwaffe in a major victory.
Post-WWI European Security
Several treaties were signed in the 1920s to promote peace and stability in Europe after World War 1. The Locarno Pact of 1925 established security in Western Europe by guaranteeing borders and demilitarizing the Rhineland. The Kellogg-Briand Pact of 1928 had 15 nations renounce war as a means of resolving disputes. While countries agreed on disarmament in principle, mistrust prevented meaningful reductions as nations still saw war as a tool of diplomacy. Conferences in Washington, London, and Geneva made some naval and arms limitations but ultimately failed to achieve general disarmament due to rising tensions.
The rise of naziam
After WWII, Germany faced many challenges including losing territory and resources, millions of deaths and injuries, and destroyed industry and infrastructure. The Treaty of Versailles further hampered recovery by imposing heavy reparations and restricting the military. This led to economic struggles as inflation rose and jobs and goods became scarce. Adolf Hitler gained popularity by promising to address these issues and blaming Jews and the treaty for Germany's problems. He rose to power as Chancellor in 1933 and quickly established a dictatorship, rebuilding the military while restricting civil liberties.

World War II Causes
World War 2 was caused by rising nationalism, imperialism, and militarism in Germany, Italy, and Japan in the 1930s. These fascist regimes were led by dictators like Hitler, Mussolini, and Tojo who took control of their nations, built up their militaries, and sought to expand their territories, ignoring international treaties. They took advantage of economic troubles to promise national renewal through aggression. The Western democracies failed to effectively counter the aggression and Germany, Italy, and Japan became emboldened, ultimately leading to World War 2.

Great depression and solutions
The Great Depression was caused by farmers and factory workers losing money due to increased competition from European farms and a tariff on imported goods that led other countries to retaliate. There was also too much buying on credit in the 1920s and people borrowing money to invest in stocks, which then crashed. President Hoover tried to lend money to banks and businesses to stimulate the economy but did not help the unemployed. President Roosevelt created the New Deal, passing laws to regulate Wall Street and banking and creating programs to insure bank deposits, provide social security, and employ people in public works projects.
World War II Power Point
World War II was the largest war in human history, involving countries around the globe from 1939 to 1945. Over 70 million people were killed by the end of the war. The war was sparked by the aftermath of World War I and rise of totalitarian regimes in Germany, Italy, and Japan led by Hitler, Mussolini, and Tojo seeking to expand their territories. The war began when Germany invaded Poland in 1939 and soon involved most major world powers aligned into two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis powers.

Soviet-Nazis WWII
The document summarizes key events of the Russo-German War from 1941 to 1945. It describes Operation Barbarossa in June 1941, where 3 million German soldiers invaded the Soviet Union, making large gains initially. However, the brutal Russian winter of 1941-1942 caused heavy German losses. The Battle of Stalingrad from 1942-1943 marked a major turning point, where the entire German 6th Army was surrounded and captured by Soviet forces. For the next two years the Germans were pushed back by Soviet counteroffensives, until Russian forces entered Germany itself by 1945 seeking revenge.
Germany in wwii
Germany suffered greatly from the terms of the Treaty of Versailles after WWI. This contributed to economic struggles and nationalist sentiment that Hitler was able to exploit in his rise to power. After becoming Chancellor, Hitler rapidly expanded German territory and built alliances. However, Germany invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, which led to its overextension. The Holocaust under Hitler resulted in the genocide of approximately 6 million European Jews and millions of others deemed inferior. Germany's defeat in 1945 marked the end of Hitler's rule and WWII in Europe.

Church invitation 101
This series is designed to provoke interest and encourage analysis on the methodologies we deploy when inviting (potential) church members to assist in their (new or continuous) growth as believers in Christ. While this series is introductory, it can serve as a refresher for long-time Christian believers. The material can also help non-members understand why Christians believe church is an essential component of a believer’s journey. And if nothing else…. It’ll help us understand why inviting people to church can feel so dang hard! .. And hopefully overcome this feeling.
World War 2 presentation
World War 2 was a global war fought from 1939 to 1945 involving nearly every country. It began when Nazi Germany invaded Poland in 1939, leading Britain and France to declare war on Germany. The two opposing alliances were the Axis powers of Germany, Italy, Japan and others against the Allied powers including the US, Britain, France, USSR and others. Major battles included Stalingrad, Berlin and Britain. Germany surrendered in 1945, while Japan surrendered after the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The outcomes included Germany's division and Europe's political division between Western free countries and Eastern communist nations.
Front cover
The document describes the process taken to design a magazine front cover in Photoshop. First, a grey/black brush was used to create a shadowy background. An image was cropped and placed on the cover. A masthead with the magazine name "42" in a large font size and "Independent" below in a smaller size was created using contrasting red and black colors. Coverlines were added around the page in Helvetica font in black and white. A yellow flash shape was made and text was added. Finally, a barcode image was resized and placed, and the price and website were added in font to complete the cover design.
WWII Overview
The document provides an overview of World War II, including key players and major events. Some of the major players in the Axis powers were Adolf Hitler of Germany, Benito Mussolini of Italy, and Hideki Tojo of Japan. Key Allied powers included Winston Churchill of Britain, Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman of the United States, and Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union. Major events of the war included Germany's invasion of Poland in 1939, marking the official start of World War II, as well as Germany's defeat at Stalingrad in 1942 and the Allied invasion of Normandy in 1944. The war ended in 1945 following the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki and Japan's surrender.

Road To Wwii
The document summarizes the key events leading up to World War 2, including Hitler's rise to power in Germany and his aims of expanding German territory, abolishing the Treaty of Versailles, and destroying Communism. It then outlines Hitler's "steps to war" through remilitarization of Germany, annexation of Austria and the Sudetenland, and invasion of Poland, despite the policy of appeasement by Britain and France. War broke out in Europe in 1939 when Britain and France declared war on Germany after it invaded Poland.
World War Ii Part 1
1. Hitler made several major military blunders that helped the Allies, including underestimating the strength of the Soviet Union and attacking it, and being fooled by the Allies about the location of the D-Day invasion.
2. In 1940, Germany quickly invaded and defeated Poland, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France. They surprised the French by going around the fortified Maginot Line.
3. In June 1941, after delays from problems in the Balkans, Hitler invaded the Soviet Union and advanced quickly at first. However, the early winter of 1941 and fierce Russian resistance halted the German advance just outside Moscow.
World at War
The document provides an overview of key events and developments in World War II in Europe and the Pacific theaters from 1942 to 1945. It discusses major battles like Stalingrad and D-Day, as well as Germany's policy towards Jewish people which led to the Holocaust. It also covers the U.S. decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, leading to Japan's surrender and the end of the war.
World War 2
The document summarizes key events leading up to and during World War II. It discusses how European powers were rearming in the 1930s in violation of treaties. World War II officially began in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland. The US initially tried to remain neutral but provided material support to Britain through Lend-Lease. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 drew the US fully into the war. The US mobilized its economy and citizens for war, though interned Japanese Americans. By 1945, Allied strategies including invasions of North Africa and Europe and atomic bombs on Japan ended the war.
World war ii
World War II began in 1935 as Germany and Japan aggressively expanded their territories in violation of treaties from World War I. Adolf Hitler instituted a military buildup in Germany and remilitarized the Rhineland, alarming other European nations. Germany then annexed Austria and parts of Czechoslovakia, showing that the policy of appeasement was emboldening German aggression. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Britain and France declared war, marking the start of World War II in Europe. Japan also aggressively expanded in Asia, invading Manchuria in 1931 and engaging in a full-scale war with China from 1937. In 1941, Japan launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, bringing the United States into the war against Germany and Japan. Over
The worldwar II
Hitler rose to power in Germany in 1933 and sought to undo the Treaty of Versailles, expand German territory, and destroy communism. Over the next several years, he took incremental steps to rearm Germany and annex neighboring lands, including remilitarizing the Rhineland in 1936, annexing Austria in 1938, and taking the Sudetenland from Czechoslovakia later that year. In 1939, Hitler signed a non-aggression pact with Stalin and invaded Poland, prompting Britain and France to declare war on Germany, plunging Europe into World War II.
Europe after Hitler’s Advance
Winston Churchill gave a famous speech on May 13, 1940 outlining Britain's policy of total victory against Nazi Germany "at all costs". After Germany's swift defeat of France, Britain stood alone against Hitler. The Battle of Britain in 1940 was Hitler's first major defeat as the Royal Air Force prevented Germany from gaining air superiority needed to invade. The US took steps to support Britain through destroyers-for-bases deal and passing the Lend-Lease Act in 1941 to provide military aid. Japan's expansionism threatened US and British interests in the Pacific, leading to increased tensions and an eventual Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 that drew the US into World War II.
WORLD WAR TWO CAUSES AND EFFECTS..WHAT WE LOST WHAT WE FOUND
World War II was a global conflict between the Axis powers (Germany, Italy, and Japan) and the Allies (France, Britain, the US, Soviet Union, and China) from 1939-1945. Some key events included Germany's invasion of Poland starting the war, Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union which led to its downfall, and the D-Day invasion of Normandy and bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki which contributed to the Axis powers' defeat. The war caused widespread death and destruction and led to the establishment of the United Nations to help prevent future conflicts.
Causes ww2
The document discusses several factors that contributed to the start of World War 2:
1. The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany after WWI, including war guilt, reparations, and disarmament. This fueled German resentment.
2. Hitler took advantage of German dissatisfaction to rise to power in 1933. He began secretly rearming Germany and remilitarizing the Rhineland in violation of the Treaty.
3. Britain and France pursued a policy of appeasement by allowing Germany to annex Austria and parts of Czechoslovakia in 1938 in exchange for promises of no further territorial demands. However, Hitler did not keep his promises.
4. The League of Nations proved ineffective
WWII
1) WWII began in Europe in 1939 as Germany invaded Poland under Hitler and in Asia as Japan expanded its empire.
2) The US initially remained neutral but increasingly aided Britain and the Soviet Union through Lend-Lease and embargoes against Japan before entering the war after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
3) The US fought major campaigns in the Pacific, North Africa, Italy, and Western Europe, where the Allied invasion on D-Day in 1944 opened a second front against Germany.
4) Germany surrendered in 1945 after the Allied invasion of Germany and the fall of Berlin to the Soviets, but fighting against Japan continued until the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki and
WWII
The document provides a detailed overview of the political and military events leading up to and during World War II. It describes the rise of dictators like Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito in Europe and Asia in the 1930s. As nationalist and militarist governments took power, they increasingly violated international treaties and invaded neighboring countries. While Western democracies attempted appeasement, war broke out in 1939 with Germany's invasion of Poland. The document then outlines the major military campaigns and turning points of the war in Europe and the Pacific theater between 1939-1945.
World war ii power point
World War II was a global war lasting from 1939-1945. It involved most of the world's nations who split into two military alliances: the Allies and the Axis powers.

The war ended with the defeat of the Axis powers and the establishment of the United Nations to promote international cooperation and prevent future conflicts.
Road to war student booklet
This document provides an overview of key events leading up to World War II. It lists Hitler's three foreign policy aims of abolishing the Treaty of Versailles, expanding German territory, and defeating Communism. It then outlines six steps Hitler took to advance towards war, including rearmament, remilitarizing the Rhineland, and annexing Austria and Czechoslovakia. The document also discusses appeasement by Britain and France in response to Hitler's actions and growing German aggression. Chamberlain hoped appeasement would avoid war but it failed to stop Hitler's drive for further conquest.
Ch 21.3
1) After Germany's quick victories, it occupied northern France and established the Vichy government in southern France led by Marshal Petain.
2) Vichy France collaborated with Germany but had some autonomy, while occupied France was under direct German military control.
3) Resistance groups like the Maquis fought against the German occupation through sabotage in occupied France.
Chapter 14 section 4 power point
The document summarizes key events in 1917-1918 during World War 1 and the peace settlements that followed. In 1917, Allied offensives had been defeated while the US entered the war, boosting the Allies. Germany attacked France in 1918 but was stopped. With American troops arriving, the Allies advanced as Germany sought an armistice. In 1919, the Paris Peace Conference established the Treaty of Versailles and League of Nations over German objections to the treaty's harsh terms. The conference redrew borders in Europe and divided former Ottoman lands, laying seeds for future conflicts.
18 World War II.ppt
World War II began in 1939 after Germany invaded Poland. Key events included the rise of dictators like Hitler in Germany and Mussolini in Italy, Germany's invasion of numerous countries in Europe, Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor that brought the US into the war, and the US dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 that led to Japan's surrender, ending the war. The war resulted in over 60 million deaths worldwide and changed the global political landscape, with the US and Soviet Union emerging as superpowers. It also saw the liberation of Nazi concentration camps and the revelation of the Holocaust.
THE ROAD TO WAR 1939 - HITLER'S FOREIGN POLICY AIMS
THE ROAD TO WAR 1939 - HITLER'S FOREIGN POLICY AIMS. Adolf Hitler was appointed chancellor of Germany in 1933 following a series of electoral victories by the Nazi Party. He ruled absolutely until his death by suicide in April 1945. Adolf Hitler came to power with the goal of establishing a new racial order in Europe dominated by the German “master race.” This goal drove Nazi foreign policy, which aimed to: throw off the restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles; incorporate territories with ethnic German populations into the Reich; acquire a vast new empire in Eastern Europe; form alliances; and, during the war, persuade other states to participate in the “final solution.”
Make Germany Pay!
The document summarizes the key terms of the Treaty of Versailles imposed on Germany after World War 1. France wanted revenge on Germany and its complete disarmament. The US wanted peace and reduced arms while Britain wanted a stable Germany. Germany was forced to agree to territorial losses including colonies, a reduced military of 100,000 troops with no heavy weapons, paying reparations of 32 billion pounds, and accepting sole blame for WWI.
Chapter 6
The document discusses the events leading up to World War 2 in Europe. It explains that after WWI, the Treaty of Versailles and League of Nations aimed to maintain peace but failed to stop German and Italian aggression in the 1930s. Germany rearming under Hitler threatened peace as he annexed Austria and Czechoslovakia through appeasement. Weakness of the League and appeasement encouraged further aggression until Britain changed its policy, paving the way for WWII.
European Theater (WWII)
The document summarizes key events in the European theater of World War 2. It describes the rise of fascism in Europe in the 1930s under Hitler in Germany and Mussolini in Italy. It then outlines Germany's aggression and violations of treaties, the failed appeasement policy of Britain and France, and Germany's invasion of Poland which started WWII. The summary also briefly discusses the early war period including the Phony War and Germany's swift conquest of Western European nations.

The presidency of barack obama
The document summarizes key events from Barack Obama's two terms as president from 2008 to 2016. In his first term, Obama took office during the Great Recession and approved bailouts that saved jobs but increased the national debt. He passed the Affordable Care Act and supported gay marriage. Osama bin Laden was killed during this term. In his second term, Obama saw job growth and increased exports while establishing climate regulations. He also brokered the Iran nuclear deal and normalized relations with Cuba.
Since the year 2000
Since 2000, there have been significant social, technological, economic, and environmental changes. Key advances include the widespread adoption of GPS, hybrid vehicles, text messaging, and iPods. Socially, book clubs, celebrity culture on social media like Facebook, and tattoos have become more common. Economically, China has risen as a global economic power while manufacturing jobs have left the US. The lack of financial regulations contributed to the Great Recession. Environmentally, 9 of the 10 warmest years on record were since 2000, recycling is ubiquitous, polar ice caps are melting, and sustainability has become important.
Events of the Bush administration
George W. Bush was elected president in 2000 by a narrow margin after the Supreme Court halted a recount in Florida. His presidency saw the creation of No Child Left Behind, the capture of Saddam Hussein in Iraq, and the passage of tax cuts and a bank bailout package in response to the Great Recession that began in 2008. Major events also included withdrawing from the Kyoto Protocol, the space shuttle Columbia disaster, and vetoes of stem cell research bills.
Election of 2000
This document lists major events that occurred during George W.

Foreign issues for the clinton administration
This document summarizes several international conflicts and events involving the U.S. from the 1990s-2000s. It discusses ethnic violence and genocide in Somalia, Rwanda, Serbia and Kosovo where hundreds of thousands of people were killed. It also outlines American interventions including peacekeeping missions that ended in casualties, as well as responses to terrorist attacks including the first World Trade Center bombing and USS Cole bombing carried out by radical Muslim groups. No clear policy for dealing with rising Muslim extremism had been developed.
Domestic issues for the clinton administration
The document outlines several domestic challenges faced by the Clinton administration, including the emergence of the internet and related legislation like the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and Communications Decency Act. It also discusses domestic terrorism such as the Oklahoma City bombing by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols in 1995 and the Columbine school shooting. Congress responded to the Oklahoma City bombing by passing the Anti-Terrorism Act of 1996, similar to the Patriot Act passed after 9/11. Clinton faced political scandals such as Whitewater, sexual harassment accusations from Paula Jones, and impeachment for perjury and obstruction of justice regarding his relationship with Monica Lewinsky.
Clinton 1996 election
In the 1996 election, Bill Clinton was re-elected as president, defeating Republican Bob Dole and Reform candidate Ross Perot. During Clinton's first term he appointed his wife Hillary to head a task force to create a universal healthcare plan, but it was never brought to a vote due to opposition. Clinton worked with a Republican congress to cut spending and lower taxes, resulting in the first balanced budget in 24 years. He also signed welfare reform legislation and oversaw the implementation of NAFTA on January 1, 1994, which both had positive and negative economic effects.
Bill clinton election of 1992
Bill Clinton won the 1992 presidential election as the Democratic nominee, running on a platform of middle-class tax cuts and national healthcare reform. He relied heavily on his wife Hillary Rodham Clinton during the campaign. Clinton positioned himself as a defender of the middle class against incumbent President George H. W. Bush and independent candidate Ross Perot. However, after taking office in 1993, Clinton found it difficult to enact his agenda due to resistance from a Republican-controlled Congress following the 1994 midterm elections.
Reagan and bush
Reaganomics focused on cutting federal spending, reducing taxes, and increasing defense spending. Federal budget cuts targeted programs like food stamps, welfare, Medicaid, and student loans. Tax cuts relied on supply-side economics to stimulate the economy by cutting taxes and increasing business investment and job creation. Defense spending increased substantially through initiatives like the Strategic Defense Initiative. Deregulation of industries like airlines and trucking aimed to lower business and consumer costs. Foreign policy saw the collapse of the Soviet Union and end of the Cold War, as well as US interventions in Central America and the Caribbean.
The big 80s part 1
The conservative movement built in the 1980s as people joined the "New Right" to oppose abortion, the removal of prayer in schools, affirmative action, busing, and welfare programs, while supporting traditional family values and individual responsibility. Ronald Reagan appealed to businesspeople wanting deregulation, southerners wanting smaller government, westerners wanting less federal land control, and Democrats believing their party had become too liberal. Reagan defeated Jimmy Carter in 1980 by promising smaller government, lower taxes, and traditional values as people were frustrated by the hostage crisis, high inflation, and poor economy under Carter.
Ford and carter
Gerald Ford became president after Nixon's resignation and struggled with stagflation as inflation and unemployment rose. His attempts to cut spending and raise interest rates caused a recession. Ford also failed to get support from Congress and lost Vietnam. In the 1976 election, Jimmy Carter was elected as an outsider who promised to restore integrity, but struggled with a weak economy as inflation increased due to rising oil prices set by OPEC. Carter achieved the Camp David Accords but his presidency was hurt by the Iran hostage crisis and a failed rescue mission.
Problems for the nixon administration
The Nixon administration faced several major problems including stagflation, which resisted traditional economic solutions and led to shortages. Vice President Spiro Agnew resigned due to tax evasion and bribery charges, requiring Nixon to appoint Gerald Ford as the new vice president. The Watergate scandal emerged involving a break-in at the Democratic headquarters and Nixon's attempted cover-up, leading to his resignation in 1974 as impeachment loomed. Upon taking office, President Ford granted Nixon a controversial pardon that was unpopular but aimed to unify the nation.
Early 70s nixon for virtual
The document summarizes key events in the Vietnam War in the 1970s and Nixon's presidency. It describes how public support for the war waned as the human costs mounted. Nixon became president in 1968 promising to end the war with "peace with honor" but prolonged it for several more years through bombing of Cambodia and Laos. His policies of Vietnamization gradually removed US troops but Congress revoked support for the war. Protests against the war grew more intense, exemplified by the shooting of student protestors at Kent State. The Pentagon Papers revealed the US never had a plan to end the war. Nixon appealed to the "silent majority" but the legacy of Vietnam included reforms like the War Powers Act limiting presidential war powers.
The vietnam war draws to a close
The document summarizes key events in the Cold War and Vietnam War era from the 1950s to the 1970s. It discusses the Eisenhower Doctrine's goal of containing communism, Soviet advancements like Sputnik that worried Americans, Cold War crises like U2 spy plane incidents and the Cuban Missile Crisis, US escalation in Vietnam to stop communism, protests against the war at home, and the 1973 Paris Peace Accords that ended US involvement as Vietnam reunified under communism.
Us involvement in vietnam
The US became involved in Vietnam for several reasons: to contain communism according to the Cold War policy, the Domino Theory that communism would spread in Asia if one country fell, and the French withdrawal from their colony of Vietnam. The Gulf of Tonkin resolution allowed the president to send troops without congressional approval. The US supported the anti-communist leader Diem in South Vietnam but later helped remove him. Despite initial advisors, the US increasingly committed troops under Kennedy and Johnson but failed to win, contributing to Johnson not seeking re-election. Nixon took office promising to end the war through "Vietnamization" while using tactics like Agent Orange and napalm bombings. Growing protests at home resulted from the Tet Offensive showing
The Cuban Missile Crisis
The Soviet Union placed nuclear missiles in Cuba in 1962, just 90 miles from the United States, alarming President Kennedy and many Americans. Kennedy demanded the missiles' removal and established a blockade around Cuba. A compromise was eventually reached where the Soviets agreed to remove the Cuban missiles in exchange for the US removing missiles from Turkey. The Cuban Missile Crisis brought the US and Soviet Union dangerously close to nuclear war.
Equal rights amendment
The document summarizes the history and goals of the Equal Rights Amendment proposed in the United States. The Equal Rights Amendment aimed to guarantee equal rights under law regardless of sex. It was first proposed in 1923 but gained momentum in the 1960s-1970s led by the National Organization for Women. It passed Congress in 1972 but failed to gain ratification by 38 states by the 1982 deadline due to opposition groups claiming it would eliminate traditional gender roles and legalize gay marriage. While not ratified, numerous court cases have since helped promote greater gender equality.
The Civil Rights Movements
This document outlines the history of the civil rights movement in the United States from the 1950s through the 1960s. It discusses key events and figures, including Brown v. Board of Education, the Montgomery Bus Boycott led by MLK, the formation of civil rights organizations like SNCC and CORE, nonviolent protests such as sit-ins and freedom rides, the march on Washington and MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech, and the assassinations of MLK and Malcom X. It also summarizes landmark civil rights legislation passed during this period, including the Civil Rights Acts of 1957, 1964, and 1968 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
Totalitarianism takes over europe
Totalitarianism took over Europe in the 1930s and 1940s. Totalitarian governments controlled all aspects of society including where people worked, what was produced, how people dressed, their beliefs, actions, likes and dislikes. People who violated the government's rules faced punishment such as jail or death. European countries turned to totalitarianism due to economic problems during the Great Depression and a lack of democratic tradition, as countries like Italy, Germany and the USSR had been ruled by kings for most of their history. Totalitarian dictators like Stalin, Mussolini and Hitler rose to power by promising to restore national pride and economic stability while blaming issues on enemies of the state.
International women’s day
International Women's Day was first celebrated on March 11, 1911 to bring attention to women's issues in the workplace like lower pay than men for the same work and attempts by women to unionize being suppressed. It was later moved to March 8th in 1913 to commemorate female garment workers protesting low pay and unsafe conditions in 1857. While their protest was broken up by police, it helped lead to the formation of a female garment workers union. In 1986, the entire month of March was proclaimed National Women's Month to increase awareness of women's issues and roles throughout history. The same problems of pay inequality, harassment and discrimination that women first protested over a century ago remain ongoing issues today.

Session One: 'Setting Expectations: a DEIA Primer,' was held June 6, 2024.A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
