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.

Churchill said many times that WW2 was an ‘unnecessary war’. He was thinking only of the Europe and not the WW2 in the Pacific. Hegemony, imperialism and nationalism had a lot of to do with it, but historian can never be satisfied with these labels. Unlike the sociologists, military strategists, the economists and psychologists, historians cannot be satisfied with generalisations. These are not specific enough for the historians. Historians like to dig into their subject in details and look into the specifics, motives and the events. Because their explanation is in such detail level, inevitably there are many shades of opinions and different views. Then they debate amongst themselves and hopeful come to some kind of conclusion as to what actually happened. But this is too complicated for politicains. They like simple explanation. Politicians pick and choose facts and events to build their case according to their political colours.
This is what is happening to the history of the Second World War. It is been revised, distorted and even denied. In authoritarian society, books are banned, views are censored and people are kept ignorance of the events. In a more open nations, this could lead to denial of holocausts and atrocities. Myths and invention can always manufactured to justify their ideology. As J H Plumb said in ‘The Death of the Past’, the role of the historian was to “dissolve those simple structural generalisations by which our forefathers interpreted the purpose of life in historical terms” and to challenge the use of the past as an instrument of political or social repression. In the words of British historian Eric Hobsbawn “We (historian) have a responsibility to historical facts in general, and for criticizing the politico-ideological abuse of history in particular.” No nation is greater or smaller because of their past, it is what they are doing today that matters.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Germany's future, Hitler declared,
entirely depended on meeting its need
for more Lebensraum -living space;
the German nation had a right to a
larger share of land. The question was
where the space could be acquired "at
the lowest cost." The answer lay not
in overseas colonies but in Europe
itself, "in immediate proximity to the
Reich."

Hitler intended to expand Eastwards
towards Poland and Russia. Russians
and Poles were Slavs – Hitler believed
them to be inferior and so Germany
was entitled to take their land.

9. Step One – Austria
1934
Failed attempt at
Austrian Anschluss
Hitler persuaded Austrian Nazis to
stir up trouble in Austria
They took over the Chancery and
shot Chancellor Dollfuss dead
Hitler offered to send German
troops in ‘to keep peace’
Mussolini of Italy did not like Hitler at this stage
Sent Italian troops up to the border with Austria – clear threat to fight
if Hitler moved German troops in
Hitler had not built up German Army enough to take on Italy yet – he
backed down
abhishek
10. Step Two
Re-armament
As soon as he came to power, Hitler began
breaking the Treaty of Versailles by re-arming
Germany
He began in secret –
e.g. setting up the
‘German Gliding Club’
to train pilots.
Also in 1935 he introduced
CONSCRIPTION,
increased spending on arms
and said the
German Army would
increase to 500,000 men.
In 1935 Germany signed
Anglo-German naval agreement.
German navy limited to
35% of British.

12. Step Three
The Saar Plebiscite in 1935
Saar coalfields had been under League of Nations control since Treaty of
Versailles
Treaty of Versailles said after 15 years Saarlanders could decide by
plebiscite whether to join Germany
Massive majority (90%) voted to go back to Germany
abhishek
13. Step Four
Remilitarisation of the Rhineland
The Treaty of Versailles forbade Germany to have any troops or
fortifications in the Rhineland area, bordering France.
On March 7th 1936 Hitler took a huge gamble and ordered German
troops to march into the Rhineland. This directly broke the terms
of the Treaty of Versailles.
They had secret sealed orders to retreat if Britain or France
objected.
Hitler had ordered his generals, commanding 22,000 men, to
retreat if France showed any signs of retaliation. This did not
occur. German soldiers and armed policemen marched straight into
abhishek
the Rhineland.
14. Reasons and Reactions
France and Russia had made
a treaty to protect each other from
Germany. Hitler said that he
should be allowed to place
troops on his own frontier.
abhishek
France was going through an internal
political crisis at the time and there
was no political leadership to
concentrate against Nazi Germany.
Britain generally supported the view
that Nazi Germany was only
going into her own "backyard" and
that this section of Versailles did not
need to be enforced in the mid-1930’s.
It was believed that Germany was
behaving in a reasonable and
understandable manner.
15. Step Five
Anschluss with Austria (1938)
Hitler had now allied with Mussolini, after Mussolini was angered by
League of Nations sanctions on Italy after the invasion of Abyssinia
Hitler told Austrian Nazis to stir up trouble in Vienna again
Then he put pressure on chancellor Schuschnigg to invite German troops
in to keep peace
Schuschnigg gambled & called for a plebiscite, hoping Austrians would say
no, and make it impossible for Hitler to invade.
Hitler did not wait, moved his troops to the border of Austria and threatened
to invade if Schuschnigg did not resign.. Schuschnigg forcibly resigned and a
Nazi supporter replaced him. Hitler’s troops marched into Austria four days
before the plebiscite, and used German troops to ‘supervise’ the voting. Not
surprisingly he got a 99.75% vote in favour of Austria joining Germany.
abhishek
16. Reasons and Reactions
France and Britain refused to help Austria.
The British prime Minister Neville
Chamberlain felt the Treaty of Versailles
was wrong and that Austria
and Germany should be united. This
was justified by the fact that they
were both German speaking nations.
There were lots of German people
living in Austria and Hitler said the Hitler was now even more convinced that
Britain and France would not

with Germany.
Austria was economically weak
and Hitler promised to solve
this problem.

18. Step Six
Spanish Civil War 1936-39
In 1936 civil war broke out in Spain between the right wing
Nationalists and the left wing Republicans
The world promised not to intervene, but Hitler decided to
send help to the nationalists
He did this so that he could train his men in his new
techniques, especially using Blitzkrieg.
German troops, aircraft and military advisors helped General
Franco to win this war.

1937
Was a turning point for Britain and France

made many consider Appeasement
19. Step Seven
Sudentenland 1938
The Sudetenland contained 2 million German speakers
They had NEVER been part of Germany (Austrian before 1919)
Hitler demanded ‘selfgovernment’ for the
Sudeten Germans
The Czechs were outraged…
Chamberlain flew to
Germany twice &
agreed
Then Mussolini called a
conference at Munich
Hitler then
demanded that the
Sudetenland be
given to Germany
The Czechs were not invited!
Chamberlain hesitated…
Britain, France, Italy & Germany agreed to
give the Sudetenland to Germany
abhishek
20. Sudetenland Continued – The ‘Peace of Paper’
At Munich, Chamberlain and Hitler signed a separate treaty. It
promised that Britain and Germany would never go to war with
each other again…
abhishek
21. Step Eight – Czechoslovakia
March 1939
Hitler promised at Munich that he did not want any more land
In March 1939 Germany invaded the rest of Czechoslovakia
Czechoslovakia was an independent state, it had no German minority
They guarantee to defend Poland if it is attacked
He thinks GB & France are letting Hitler move east to attack him!
Decides to buy time to re-build shattered Red Army…
abhishek
22. Step Nine – Nazi-Soviet Pact
August 1939
I can’t invade Poland if
Britain & France attack
me in the West AND the
USSR attacks me from
the East
I can’t fight Germany
yet – I’ve just purged
my Red Army! And
Britain & France
won’t help ME!
So…
They signed the Nazi-Soviet Pact
They promised not to attack each other
In secret they promised to divide Poland between them

26. For all the role of science, mathematics, and new inventions in earlier wars, no war had
as profound an effect on the technologies of our current lives than World War II (193945). And no war was as profoundly affected by science, math, and technology than WWII.
We can point to numerous new inventions and scientific principles that emerged during
the war. These include advances in rocketry, pioneered by Nazi Germany. The V-1 or
“buzz bomb” was an automatic aircraft (today known as a “cruise missile”) and the V-2
was a “ballistic missile” that flew into space before falling down on its target (both were
rained on London during 1944-45, killing thousands of civilians). The “rocket team” that
developed these weapons for Germany were brought to the United States after World
War II, settled in Huntsville, Alabama, under their leader Wernher von Braun, and then
helped to build the rockets that sent American astronauts into space and to the moon.
Electronic computers were developed by the British for breaking the Nazi “Enigma”
codes, and by the Americans for calculating ballistics and other battlefield equations.
Numerous small “computers”—from hand-held calculating tables made out of cardboard,
to mechanical trajectory calculators, to some of the earliest electronic digital computers,
could be found in everything from soldiers’ pockets to large command and control
centers. Early control centers aboard ships and aircraft pioneered the networked,
interactive computing that is so central to our lives today.
