What caused WWII? WWI and Treaty of Versailles Rise of fascism German “guilt” and reparations makes them angry and want revenge. Rise of fascism Appeasement

What’s fascism? Political belief that says the individual is less important than the nation. Glorifies violence, believes it is needed to “prove” strength of a people. Uses nationalism and racism. Dictatorships. Italy and then Germany became fascist.

What is appeasement? Giving someone something to make them happy and leave you alone. Hitler demanded land that wasn’t Germany’s and others just gave it to him. Nations were trying to prevent war…it didn’t work. Appeasement just showed Hitler that he could do whatever he wanted.

“Peace in Our Time!”

How did WWII start? Germany invaded Poland to get lebensraum

How did WWII start? Germany invaded Poland. Allies declare war on Germany. Germany then invades France, Belgium, etc. Then Hitler invades Russia. Germans use “blitzkrieg” to overwhelm other armies. Blitzkrieg means “lightening war” in German. Surround with tanks and troops in trucks.

How did WWII end in Europe? Germany surrenders in 1945. Allies divide Germany up between them. This helps start the Cold War. Trials are held in Germany (and Japan) to try the people responsible for the war. Many are executed and jailed for war crimes.
