Lesson 1 of 4: The Rise of Hitler - Circumstances in Germany
In this lesson, we studied how the circumstances in Germany contributed to Hitler's rise to power. First, we made connections between what we studied in Chapter 1 (Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations) and the start of Chapter 3. Then, we looked at the three major issues in Germany: the weakness of the Weimar Government, the problem of hyperinflation, and the severe impact of the Great Depression.

How did treaty of Versailles establish peace?lunata1
Title: The Treaty of Versailles: A Controversial Quest for Peace
Introduction:
The Treaty of Versailles, signed on June 28, 1919, marked the end of World War I and aimed to establish a lasting peace among the nations involved. Crafted during a tumultuous period in history, the treaty remains one of the most debated and criticized international agreements. While some argue that the Treaty of Versailles successfully laid the groundwork for peace, others contend that it sowed the seeds of future conflicts. This comprehensive analysis will delve into the various aspects of the treaty, examining its intentions, provisions, and consequences to understand how it sought to establish peace in the aftermath of the Great War.
I. The Historical Context:
To comprehend the motivations behind the Treaty of Versailles, it is crucial to examine the historical context leading up to its creation. The devastating effects of World War I, which lasted from 1914 to 1918, left Europe in ruins and claimed millions of lives. The Allies, including France, the United Kingdom, and the United States, emerged victorious, while Germany and its allies faced defeat. The treaty negotiations took place at the Palace of Versailles, reflecting a symbolic choice as the French monarchy had historically been associated with the centralization of power.
II. Objectives and Principles:
A. League of Nations:
One of the central tenets of the Treaty of Versailles was the establishment of the League of Nations, an international organization envisioned to prevent future conflicts through diplomatic means. Inspired by President Woodrow Wilson's idea of collective security, the League aimed to provide a forum for nations to resolve disputes peacefully. Proponents believed that the League would serve as a crucial mechanism for maintaining global peace by fostering cooperation and dialogue among nations.
B. Territorial Adjustments:
To address the territorial consequences of the war, the treaty imposed significant changes on the map of Europe. The disintegration of empires and the redrawing of borders were intended to address the root causes of the conflict. Key territorial adjustments included the creation of new nations such as Poland and Czechoslovakia, as well as the demilitarization of the Rhineland to serve as a buffer zone between Germany and France. These territorial changes were intended to prevent future disputes and create a more stable geopolitical landscape.
III. Military and Economic Provisions:
A. Disarmament:
The Treaty of Versailles included stringent military provisions aimed at preventing Germany from rearming and posing a threat to its neighbors. These provisions included limitations on the size and capabilities of the German military, as well as the prohibition of certain types of weaponry. The Allies believed that by disarming Germany, they could diminish the likelihood of future conflicts and ensure a more peaceful Europe.
B. Reparations:

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

of
Wo r l d
Wa r
I
• Cult of offensive swept through Europe before the war.
• Cult of the offensive refers to a strategic military dilemma, where leaders
believe that offensive advantages are so great that a defending force would
have no hope of repelling the attack; consequently, all states choose to
attack.
• General Alfred von Schlieffen, author of the 1914 German war plan, declared
that “Attack is the best defence.” The German Schlieffen Plan is a notable
example of the cult of the offensive
• It was not only Germany who followed the cult of the offensive; the French
army, among others, was also driven very strongly by this doctrine, where its
supporters included Ferdinand Foch, Joseph Joffre and Loyzeaux de
Grandmaison.
• Other European states, like England, Belgium and Russia displayed milder
symptoms of the same virus.
7. C a u s es
of
Wo r l d
Wa r
I
• Germany followed an expansionist policy. Germans believed that
expansion could solve their insecurity.
• Insecurity- German expansionists complained that German borders were
constricted and indefensible picturing a Germany which is badly protected
by its unfavourable geographical frontiers. Expansion was the suggested
remedy.
• Security was not Germany’s only concern; German elites endorsed
imperialism often using security arguments.
• Spokesmen for the German military establishment exaggerated the threat
to Germany.
• Members of the German elite sometimes privately acknowledged that
Germany was under less threat than the public was being told.

United States
US enters the war on April 6, 1917 – How ?
Before 1917
• For the first 3 years US was technically neutral in the war.
• American banks were pumping money for Britain to wage war.
• US ammo Companies were producing riffles, artillery ammunition etc for allies.
• England was a major trading partner of the United States
• 1916 : US President Wilson gets re-elected on anti-war sentiments.
• Britain wanted America to join the war and support them – established a secret
propaganda to manipulate American news coverage.
By 1917, despite the propaganda, the finance & military support that US was giving
to its allies, Britain was on the verge of Bankruptcy along with the allies.
Secretly, US President Wilson was planning America’s entry into the war because of
many reasons:
11. Sinking
of
Lusitania
While many British passenger ships had been called into duty for the
war effort, Lusitania remained on her traditional route between
Liverpool and New York. The German Embassy in Washington had
issued this warning on 22 April 1915.
NOTICE!
TRAVELLERS intending to embark on the Atlantic voyage are
reminded that a state of war exists between Germany and her allies
and Great Britain and her allies; that the zone of war includes the
waters adjacent to the British Isles; that, in accordance with formal
notice given by the Imperial German Government, vessels flying the
flag of Great Britain, or any of her allies, are liable to destruction in
those waters and that travellers sailing in the war zone on the ships
of Great Britain or her allies do so at their own risk.

1917 – War Declared !
•In January 1917, Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare.
•The German Foreign minister, in the Zimmermann Telegram, told revolutiontorn Mexico that U.S. entry was likely once unrestricted submarine warfare
began, and invited Mexico to join the war as Germany's ally against the
United States.
•British intelligence intercepted the telegram and passed the information on
to Washington.
•Wilson released the Zimmerman note to the public and Americans saw it as
a cause for war and thus, the war was declared on 6th April 1917
•During the war, the US mobilized over 4,000,000 military personnel and
suffered 110,000 deaths
13. WW1
&
the
United States
"The total cost of World War I to
the United States of America
was approximately $32 billion,
or 52 percent of gross national
product at the time.“
There were two effects the war had on US economy:
1. Short Term :
US & the roaring 20’s – the US economy witnessed an economic boom
due to their involvement in WWI.
(From 1915 the US made tons of loans to the UK)
Between 1914 and 1918, some 3 million people were added to the military and half a
million to the government.
Overall, unemployment declined from 7.9 percent to 1.4 percent in this period
2.
Long Term :
The Treaty of Versailles led to a system where the US was cashing in its wartime
loans to the UK, which in turn was using the wartime reparations it received from
Germany to pay off the US.
This system collapsed when the Germany economy succumbed to hyperinflation and
died.

• Treaty of Versailles
• League of nations
• Downfall of Monarchies
• Bolshevik rise to power in Russia in 1917 and the triumph of fascism

• Russia withdrew from the War by signing the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk .
• The 1918 influenza pandemic
15. Tr e a t y
of
Ve r s a i l l e s
In 1919, Lloyd George of England, Orlando
of Italy, Clemenceau of France and
Woodrow Wilson from the US met to discuss
how Germany was to be made to pay for the
damage world war one had caused.
Wilson had devised a 14 point plan that he believed would bring stability to Europe.
Open Diplomacy - There should be no secret treaties between powers
Freedom of Navigation - Seas should be free in both peace and war
Free Trade - The barriers to trade between countries such as custom duties should be removed
Multilateral Disarmament - All countries should reduce their armed forces to the lowest
possible levels
Colonies - People in European colonies should have a say in their future
Russia - Russia should be allowed to operate whatever government it wanted and that
government should be accepted, supported and welcomed.
Belgium - Belgium should be evacuated and restored to the situation before the war.
France - should have Alsace-Lorraine and any lands taken away during the war restored.
Italy - The Italian border should be readjusted according to nationality
National Self -Determination - The national groups in Europe should, wherever possible, be
given their independence.
Romania, Montenegro and Serbia - Should be evacuated and Serbia should have an outlet to
the sea
Turkey - The people of Turkey should have a say in their future
Poland - Poland should become an independent state with an outlet to the sea.
League of Nations - An assembly of all nations should be formed to protect world peace in the
future.
16. Tr e a t y
of
Ve r s a i l l e s
By the time World War I ended in the defeat of the
Central Powers in November 1918, more than 9 million
soldiers had been killed and 21 million more wounded.
The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, determined
post-war borders from Europe to the Middle
East, established the League of Nations as an
international peace organization and punished
Germany for its aggression with reparations and the
loss of territory.
The German people were very unhappy about the
treaty and thought that it was too harsh. Germany
could not afford to pay the money and during the
1920s the people in Germany were very poor.
This map shows the areas that
Germany lost following the Treaty
of Versailles
Tragically, the instability caused by World War I would help make possible the rise
of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and would, only two decades later, lead to a second
devastating international conflict – World War II
The war left a legacy of bitterness that contributed to World War II twenty-one years later.

30. In the sphere of leaflet
propaganda the enemy has
defeated us. Shooting poison darts
from a secure hiding place was
never a German art. We
realized, however, that this
struggle is a life and death
matter, and that one has to fight
the enemy with his own weapons.
Yet the spirit of the enemy leaflets
skulks around and refuses to be
killed...The enemy has defeated us
not as man against man in the field
of battle, bayonet against bayonet.
No, bad contents in poor printing
on poor paper has made our arm
lame.
32. The leaflet goes on to use a twisted logic to explain that
those people who refuse to fight and surrender are
heroes, while those who stand and die for a cause are
cowards.
33. Leaflets aimed at Sikhs in the British-Indian
army. Language is Urdu, script is Devanagiri
34. Look here you fellows – I
don’t want to tell you fairy
tales and I don’t want to try
and change your opinion
against your country – I know
you chaps stick to your
country and I admire you for
it – What I am going to tell
you are facts and nothing but
facts. Do you fellows realize
what America’s so called help
means to England? It means
ENGLAND’S
FINANCIAL
RUIN…
35. Life,
Liberty
and
happiness.
So
long
as
the
administration
is
determined to keep the
war going there is only
one way for you to get out
of this miserable fix and
that is for you to stop
fighting. You can do this
honorably. As a freeborn
American citizen, you have
the right to life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness.
The American Constitution
guarantees you these
rights. Exercise them!..."
36. THINK IT OVER!
You have had music to march
to, flags waving to cheer you
on and words of praise and
you have left behind you all
that is dear to you to come to
France to fight the Germans.
Until the English wanted you
for cannon food you never
knew that the Germans were
your enemies, but no sooner
did England realize that she
couldn’t beat the Germans
even with the help of nearly all
the rest of the savage and
civilized world that she
persuaded you that the
Germans were ‘Huns’ and your
deadly foes…"
37. What are we fighting for? The
German note: The German
Government requests the
President of the United States
of America to take in hand the
restoration of peace, acquaint
all belligerent States with this
request, and invite them to
send plenipotentiaries for the
purpose
of
opening
negotiations. It accepts the
programme set forth by the
President of the United States
in his message to Congress on
Jan 8, 1918……
38. The German People Offers
Peace. The new German
democratic government
has this programme: ‘The
will of the people is the
highest law.’ The German
people wants quickly to
end the slaughter. The
new German popular
government therefore has
offered an Armistice…
