Pacific Theater (WWII)
This talks about the pacific theater of conflict during WWII, which led up to the dropping of the atomic bomb.
Germany After WWI
Germany faced severe economic and political instability following World War I that created conditions for Hitler's rise to power: 1) Runaway inflation destroyed the economy as the government printed money to pay war debts; 2) No single political party could gain control amid over a dozen factions, allowing extremists like the Nazis to take advantage; 3) The humiliating Treaty of Versailles left Germans seeking a leader to restore national pride and rearm the country. When the Great Depression hit with mass unemployment, Hitler blamed the government and promised to return Germany to greatness, appealing to the desperate populace.
Hitler and Nazi Germany - nazi consolidation of power
The Nazis took power in Germany between 1933-1934 through a series of strategic moves. They gained popularity due to economic and political crises. In 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor and then exploited the Reichstag fire to pass laws eliminating opposition. The Enabling Act granted him dictatorial powers. He banned unions and other parties, and brought the churches under Nazi control. In the Night of the Long Knives he had SA leaders killed to consolidate power. Hindenburg's death allowed Hitler to merge the roles of Chancellor and President, achieving full control over Germany.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: HITLER BECOMING CHANCELLOR BY 1933
The document summarizes the rise of the Nazi party in Germany between 1930-1933, enabled by the economic crisis following the Wall Street crash. It describes how unemployment and economic hardship boosted support for the Nazis and Communists, with the Nazis receiving over 6 million votes in 1930, becoming the second largest party. Through tactics like gaining industrialist support, founding the SA and using mass propaganda, the Nazis saw their vote share increase further to 37% by 1932, though Hindenburg refused to appoint Hitler chancellor. Political instability followed until January 1933, when Hindenburg finally appointed Hitler chancellor with von Papen as vice-chancellor.
Wemar Germany - long term effects of the treaty of versailles
The long-term effects of the Treaty of Versailles on Germany and the Weimar Republic are debated among historians. Some argue that the treaty helped undermine the Weimar government by fueling nationalist sentiment and anger at Germany's leaders who signed it. This increased support for radical right-wing parties and contributed to the Nazis rising to power. However, others maintain that factors like the German electoral system, fears of communism, and the worldwide Great Depression were also to blame for the Weimar collapse, rather than just the treaty alone. There are arguments on both sides of whether and to what extent the harsh treaty caused Germany's political instability in the early 20th century.
HISTORY YEAR 10: NAZI IDEOLOGY
The document summarizes key aspects of Nazi ideology in Germany in the 1920s-1930s. It describes Hitler taking over the German Workers' Party and changing its name to the Nazi party. The party developed a 25-point program outlining Nazi beliefs, including that Germany should be led by a single Führer with total power, be economically self-sufficient, unite all German-speaking people, and view Jews and Communists as threats. It also promoted the ideas of Lebensraum and Aryan racial superiority. The Nazis appealed to different groups through propaganda posters targeting unemployed people, mothers, racists appealing to anti-Semitism, and the wealthy appealing to fears of Communism.

REVISION IGCSE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY: SPANISH CIVIL WAR.
Spanish Civil War, (1936–39), military revolt against the Republican government of Spain, supported by conservative elements within the country. When an initial military coup failed to win control of the entire country, a bloody civil war ensued, fought with great ferocity on both sides. The Nationalists, as the rebels were called, received aid from Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. The Republicans received aid from the Soviet Union as well as from the International Brigades, composed of volunteers from Europe and the United States.
Treaty of versailles
The Treaty of Versailles imposed terms on Germany after World War 1. It was signed on June 28, 1919 at Versailles Palace by Germany and the Allied powers. The key terms included Germany taking responsibility for starting the war, losing territory, demilitarization, and paying reparations. However, the treaty failed to achieve lasting peace and set the stage for World War 2 by isolating and punishing Germany severely.

However, the treaty failed to achieve lasting peace and set the stage for World War 2 by isolating and punishing Germany severely.
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.
Weimar Germany - The Spartacist Revolt
The Spartacist League, led by Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht, launched an uprising in January 1919 in Berlin to oppose the new German government led by Friedrich Ebert. Ebert feared a Bolshevik revolution would destabilize Germany and spark civil war. He ordered the army and Freikorps militia to suppress the uprising, resulting in the deaths of Luxemburg, Liebknecht, and 100 protesters. This marked the end of the German Revolution and divided left-wing groups in Germany, with the Communist Party never forgiving the Social Democrats for ordering the crackdown.

HISTORY IGCSE REVISION CARDS - 029. VILNA 1920
Polish troops seized the city of Vilna in 1920. Lithuania appealed to the League of Nations over Vilna, and the League told the Polish troops to leave. The League also tried to arrange a plebiscite to determine Vilna's future, which Poland initially agreed to but later changed its mind. Poland then refused to leave Vilna, despite the League's instructions, and Britain and France did not want to get involved in the dispute.

The document discusses several factors that contributed to the outbreak of World War 2 in 1939, including the flawed peace settlements after World War 1 that made Germany resentful, the weakness of the League of Nations in halting aggression by countries like Japan and Italy, the global Depression that empowered extreme right-wing leaders like Hitler, the adoption of aggressive foreign policies by some countries, Hitler's violations of the Treaty of Versailles and use of force, and the appeasement of Germany by Britain and France which emboldened further aggression by Hitler.

NAZI GERMANY: HITLER RISE TO POWER 1919-1933
This document provides biographical information about Adolf Hitler. It describes that he was born in Austria and wanted to be an artist but was rejected from art school. During WWI he fought for Germany and was inspired by nationalist ideas. After the war he joined the Nazi party which he transformed into a mass movement. The Nazi party gained popularity by blaming Jews and others for Germany's defeat in WWI and economic problems. Hitler led the failed Munich Putsch in 1923 but used the time in prison to write Mein Kampf outlining his ideology. The Nazis continued to grow in the late 1920s gaining more support as Germany struggled with high unemployment and inflation during the Great Depression.
CAMBRIDGE A2 HISTORY: THE MAIN INTERPRETATIONS OF THE COLD WAR AND A LITERATU...
The document discusses various interpretations of the origins of the Cold War between the United States and Soviet Union. It outlines the orthodox traditional interpretation which attributes responsibility to Soviet aggression, the revisionist interpretation which places more blame on American policies and imperialism, and the post-revisionist interpretation which concludes that both superpowers shared responsibility due to misunderstandings and pursuing their own interests. Historians discussed include Gaddis, Bailey, Feis, Kennan, Williams, LaFeber, Alperovitz, and Kolko.
Weimar Germany - were Germans reactions to the treaty justified?
The document discusses whether German opinions of the unfairness of the Treaty of Versailles were justified. It provides context on the German government strongly encouraging public hatred of the treaty's terms. While territory and military conditions were less punitive than what Germany previously imposed on Russia, the loss of land and reduced military damaged German pride. There is debate around whether the German government undermined defeat by portraying soldiers as victors, and if blaming all the war guilt on Germany dishonored soldiers. Historians have different views on whether Germans understandably saw themselves as victims due to being excluded from negotiations.
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.
The American Home Front (WWII)
World War II had a massive impact on the American home front. Women and minorities played a larger role in the workforce as men went off to war and consumer sacrifices were expected. The government instituted war mobilization measures like rationing of goods and price controls to direct resources towards the war effort. However, this also led to the unconstitutional internment of over 120,000 Japanese Americans in internment camps based on their ethnicity alone.
How Hitler Became Chancellor
Hitler became Chancellor of Germany in 1933 due to several converging factors: 1) the Nazi party gained popularity after the 1929 stock market crash exacerbated Germany's economic woes, 2) conservative politicians believed they could control Hitler and made deals that put him in power, 3) Hitler's oratory skills and use of propaganda through rallies appealed to Germans, and 4) paramilitary Brownshirts intimidated rivals through violence.
Sec 5N Hist (Elec) Chapter 11: End of Cold War
The document discusses the reasons for the end of the Cold War. It identifies long term factors like American economic and military superiority as well as the decline of communist ideology and failure of the Soviet economy. Short term factors included the ascension of Mikhail Gorbachev as Soviet leader and his reforms of glasnost (openness), perestroika (restructuring) and foreign policy which reduced tensions. Gorbachev's reforms revealed problems and lost control of the economy. Ultimately this led to the end of Soviet control over Eastern Europe and the fall of the Berlin Wall, increased cooperation between superpowers, and the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

Causes of the Cold War - ideological differences
The Cold War started due to ideological differences between the capitalist United States and communist Soviet Union. The US believed in individual freedoms and free markets while the USSR promoted atheism and a command economy. Both sides wanted to spread their influence globally and feared the other, causing tensions. The US sought to contain communism through actions like the Marshall Plan and military alliances. However, some historians argue the rivalry was exaggerated as the two countries had been allies in WWII, and neither believed the other could survive long-term.
Wemar Germany - challenges from the left
This page examines the different challenges that the Weimar Republic faced from left-wing groups between 1919 and 1923.
The Beginning of The Second World War
World War II began when Germany invaded Poland in 1939. This caused France and Britain to declare war on Germany. Germany then conquered much of Western Europe. In 1941, Germany broke its non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union by invading. The US entered the war after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. Over the next several years, the Allied powers including the US, Britain, and Soviet Union fought against Germany and Japan. Germany surrendered in 1945 after the US dropped atomic bombs on Japan, bringing World War II to an end after over 7 years of global conflict.
HISTORY IGCSE REVISION CARDS - 009. THE WEIMAR CONSTITUTION DOOMED THE REPUBL...
The Weimar Constitution introduced proportional representation which led to many elected parties, making it difficult for any single party to maintain control and resulting in frequent changes in government and weak coalitions. This made it hard for governments to agree on actions during difficult times like the Depression. However, the Weimar Republic was not doomed from the start, as it survived early economic crises with international aid but ultimately failed when the Great Depression hit and international support was withdrawn.

Hitler's Germany - Impact of Hitler's Rule
These slides summarise the impact of Hitler's rule over Germany. Just like Stalin's Soviet Union, Hitler's Germany was impacted in 3 areas - political, social and economic.
Biography of nikita khrushchev
Nikita Khrushchev was a Soviet leader born in 1894 in Russia and died in 1971 in Moscow. Some of his achievements include relaxing censorship and launching the Soviet Union's first satellite. He came from a working class background and joined the Communist party, fighting against the Whites in the Ukrainian Civil War. As Soviet leader, he came into conflict with Stalin over agricultural policies. During the Cold War, he placed nuclear missiles in Cuba which led to the Cuban Missile Crisis and damaged his political standing, leading to his removal from power in 1964.

Hitler annexed Austria and invaded other countries, seeking to expand Germany's territory. This led to World War 2 when Britain and France declared war on Germany after it invaded Poland in 1939. The war involved many countries and resulted in over 70 million deaths before ending with Germany's defeat in 1945.
Hitler's nazism led to World War 2
The document provides an overview of Adolf Hitler and World War 2. It discusses that Hitler was the leader of Nazi Germany from 1934 to 1945 and led Germany's participation in World War 2. The war began in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland and eventually involved many countries around the world over the course of six years. Hitler pursued fascist and expansionist policies that violated the Treaty of Versailles, seeking to build greater Germany through annexing neighboring lands and pursuing racial ideology and anti-Semitism. This ultimately led to the Holocaust and World War 2, ending with Germany's defeat in 1945 and Hitler's suicide.
Axis
World War II saw over 50 million deaths globally. The Axis powers of Italy, Germany, Japan and Russia each had totalitarian regimes led by dictators seeking to expand their nations' power. Italy's Mussolini rose amid economic issues after WWI. Germany's Hitler gained control as the Nazi party amid unemployment and poverty following WWI. Stalin industrialized the Soviet Union through brutal five-year plans. Japan's Tojo and Kita attacked neighboring nations amid their own depression. Had the Axis won, many nations may have become subject to domination by these oppressive, militaristic regimes.
Facism and nazism
Nazism promoted the idea that the Aryan race was superior and sought to expand its territory, displacing inferior races. It rejected class struggle and promoted national unity under the totalitarian state. The Nazis took control of Germany in 1933 after the Reichstag fire, suspending civil liberties and banning other parties. In 1934, Hitler consolidated power by purging the SA leadership in the Night of the Long Knives. By his death in 1945 in the Battle of Berlin, Hitler had established a fascist dictatorship in Germany but refused to surrender even as the country collapsed.
