Y8 Home Learning Project World War 2 Y8 Home Learning Project Week 1: The causes

The outbreak of war Historians disagree about the causes of the World War Two (WW2). Some trace it back to the anger created in Germany by the Treaty of Versailles. Some blame Neville Chamberlain and the appeasers for being too weak. Some ascribe it to Hitler's aggression.

What caused the war? Long term factors The war was caused by both long and short term factors. Long term factors From October 1929 an economic depression, starting in America, spread across the world. Millions were thrown out of work – some starved to death. People were angry, and they turned to political extremists: In Germany and Italy, fascist dictators came to power. In Japan, the army took power. Countries became more aggressive: Japan invaded Manchuria in 1932. Italy invaded Abyssinia in 1935.

What caused the war? Short term factors Hitler built up a Greater Germany in central Europe. In 1938 he united Austria and Germany, and demanded the Sudetenland, the German- speaking areas of Czechoslovakia. In doing so, he broke the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. Faced with aggression like this, the League of Nations was powerless. World leaders like the British Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlain tried a policy of appeasement – negotiating with Hitler and offering concessions.

What caused the war? Short term factors (continued) In September 1938, the Munich Agreement gave Hitler the Sudetenland. The Czechs were not asked what they thought about it. Hitler occupied the Sudentenland in the following month. Appeasement failed to stop Hitler. In March 1939, Germany occupied the rest of Czechoslovakia. What caused the war?

What caused the war? Short term factors (continued) The war broke out when Hitler invaded Poland on 1 September 1939. Britain declared war two days later, on 3 September.
