SWBAT: Explain the causes of World War II Do Now: a) Analyze the characteristics of Fascism and answer the two discussion questions.

Fascism in Italy The Fascist party of Benito Mussolini gained power in 1922. Fascists rose to power as a result of the dissatisfaction of the Treaty of Versailles, the Great Depression, widespread disorder, and fear of communism. Anyone that criticized Mussolini was severely punished!!! (Censorship)

Fascism in Germany Germany was feeling the effects of the Treaty of Versailles. - How did the Treaty of Versailles aim to punish Germany for WWI? Pay reparations Gave France a coal mine for 15years “War Guilt” Clause Shrank its military Not only was Germany hurt politically, socially, and economically, German military was suffering as well!

Treaty of Versailles How does the Treaty of Versailles set the stage for Fascism and Dictatorship?

German Aggression German troops are mobilized by the Nazi party. The Nazis plan to gain control of European countries like: o Austria o Czechoslovakia o Poland While the Germans begin to move across Eastern Europe, the Allied powers only watch. The Allied powers are: o France o England o China

Appeasement European democracies appeased Hitler’s demands. Among the most famous, was the agreement made at the MUNICH CONFERENCE in 1938. Here Britain and France agreed to give Hitler the Sudetenland (part of Czechoslovakia) as long as he promises not to attempt to conquer any more land.

The Outbreak of World War II Germany invaded Poland in September of 1939. This time, instead of continuing to appease Hitler, Great Britain and France declared war on Germany. World War II had officially begun.

The War In Europe The democracies (G.B., France and Allies), suffered a series of crushing defeats. Slamming across the Polish border, wave after wave of German tanks and planes forced Poland to surrender within only 30 days. So overwhelming was the German method of attack that it was called Blitzkrieg ( a German word meaning Lightning War). Next, Germany took Norway and Denmark, France managed a brief resistance but soon fell.

The Challenge for Great Britain With France beaten and the Soviet Union not involved, it was up to Great Britain to stop the Germans and its Italian allies from quickly conquering Europe. Hitler planned to invade England in September of 1940. To weaken its enemy first, Hitler ordered thousand of German planes to bomb England. Nightly, British air raid sirens warned civilians of German attacks. The Royal Air Force shot down enough planes to call off the attack. Even so…Great Britain would struggle for months as the last foe to resist Nazism!!!!!!

Causes of WWII How did this lead to the Second World War? Dictators Re-Arming Germany Appeasement Failure of the League of Nations Treaty of Versailles Invasion of Poland Neutrality of the U.S. Great Depression
