Outcome: Causes of World War II

Causes of World War II Underlying Causes of World War II Nationalism (Review from WWI): Extreme pride in one’s nationality or country Imperialism (Review from WWI): Taking of land/property Militarism (Review from WWI): Building weapons or a strong military

Causes of World War II Underlying Causes of World War II Fascism: a political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

Causes of World War II Totalitarian Dictatorships: Leaders who control all aspects of society Each dictator took advantage of economic problems by: Promising simple solutions to their nation’s problems Rebuilding national pride (often using propaganda) Providing scapegoats (targets for anger & blame) Absorbing power, taking away individual rights, and crushing opposition (1 party; 1 ruler)

Adolf Hitler in Germany

Causes of World War II Fascist Germany Dictator: Adolf Hitler (Der Fuhrer or The leader) Nazism is German Fascism Goals: Nationalism: Wanted to rebuild Germany Preached Vengeance against (4 hates) Democracies (a weak & undisciplined form of gov’t) Communism (a threat to Nazi growth) November Criminals who signed the WWI Armistice Jews (the source of all evil & problems in Germany)

Causes of World War II Fascist Germany Imperialism: A desire to unite all people of German ancestry (Blood & language) “Lebensraum” (a desire for more living space) needed to build his empire he called The Third Reich Militarism: Defied the Treaty of Versailles & rebuild the army Created the “Nazi War Machine” Built #1 military in the world

Benito Mussolini of Italy

Causes of World War II Fascist Italy Dictator: Benito Mussolini (Il Duce = The Leader) Goals: Nationalism: Wished to rebuild the ancient Holy Roman Empire Imperialism: Felt betrayed by the Allies at the Treaty of Versailles Conference due to a promise of land for joining the Allies that was not kept Wanted to control lands around the Mediterranean Sea; “Mare Nostrum” = Our Sea Militarism: Formed the Rome-Berlin Axis (alliance) with Germany in 1936

Hideki Tojo & Emperor Hirohito

Causes of World War II Japan Dictators: Goals Hideki Tojo: Military Leader & Prime Minister Emperor Hirohito: Political & Spiritual figurehead Goals Nationalism: Japan wanted to be #1 in Asia Goal: Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere: name for power in Asia Imperialism: To be #1 in Asia, they needed oil and raw materials Wanted China’s land (and others) to obtain oil and raw materials Militarism: Built up the strongest military regime in Asia Soldier’s motto: “Death before Dishonor”

Causes of World War II Others Spain: Franco’s fascists won the Spanish Civil War Soviet Union: Joseph Stalin took control of the communist nation Germany, Italy, & Japan became known as the Axis Powers once the war began. AKA the Bad Guys!

Francisco Franco of Spain

Joseph Stalin in The Soviet Union

Causes of World War II Poor Decisions were made by the powerful democracies France & Great Britain adopted a policy of appeasement The League of Nations would prove ineffective; lacked a military U.S.: Isolationism & Depression kept our focus on U.S. concerns; once aggression began we claimed to be neutral

Causes of World War II Equation: Nationalism + Imperialism + Militarism = Aggression Extreme Aggression = War!
