The Causes of WWII Part 1:

THE END OF WWI OBVIOUSLY ENDED WITH THE DEFEAT OF THE GERMANS

 Will they show them mercy?  Will they make them pay for the war?  What will become of Germany?  Discuss

 The Germans tried negotiate terms to end the war while maintaining their honor  The US President, Woodrow Wilson, proposed 14 points that Germany must agree to for the war to end  Wilson was not interested in punishing Germany  Rather, he wished to build systems and institutions that would provide a more peaceful future (e.g. The League of Nations)  Overall, Germany was pleased with the 14 points and eventually surrendered under the impression that these points would be the basis of the peace treaty.

 America wants Europe to rebuild itself (including Germany)  But not everyone feels the same way… Why did i put that?

 The Paris peace conference is where the combatants met to create the peace  One Problem:  The meeting was dominated by the French who wanted to forever destroy Germany’s ability to make war Any idea why the French wanted to destroy Germany’s military ?

What do you think happens? How do you think the allies will deal with Germany Discuss… Think of: -Military -Economy -Repairs -Land

 Saar Region (Germany’s richest land in terms of natural resources) was occupied by the French

Him not so much…

 WHO GAINED?  WHO LOST?  DO YOU THINK THE WORLD AGREES WITH THE TERMS?  Discuss

 The Treaty was considered excessive by many at the time  Germany was humiliated and economically destroyed  Who else suffered?  Austria/Hungary was completely destroyed  Italy received no benefit for its war efforts and fell into poverty  Russia and Germany were both banned from joining the League of Nations (Did not trust them, Bolshevik Russian Revolution)

DID GERMANY LOSE OR GAIN LAND?

WHAT DIFFERENCES DO YOU SEE?

Talk amongst yourselves

SO WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TO GERMANY? NAMELY, THE GERMAN ECONOMY?

 It would have been very difficult for Germany to make repartitions payments even if their economy was healthy  However, with no colonies and the loss of so much territory, Germanys situation was completely hopeless  In order to find a way out of this situation, the new German government, began to print extra money to make the payments on time.

THIS What do you think about this picture? What am I trying to show you

 The prices in Germany rose so fast that German money became completely useless  Almost the entire German population became poor almost overnight

 What do you think?

4 Billion Marks

100 Gold Marks = 100 Trillion Marks

 The German rich did very well during inflation  They bought up land, assets and expanded their businesses  The inflation cancelled out their debt  However, lower and middle class Germans were completely destroyed – life savings were eliminated  Employers could not keep up with the inflation, many stopped working as their weekly cheque would not be enough for a cup of coffee.

 Police and government officials stopped working  The streets were run by gangs and groups of ex- soldiers  Violence and crime were rampant  Most transactions were from Trading or Bartering  Communists and Right wing groups fought for control of the country and the hearts and minds of the citizens  1923 Germany made our depression seem like a picnic!

 This terrifying environment was the perfect place for psychopaths and misfits to gain attention  Those who promised revenge and the restoration of Germany’s greatness soon became national heroes  The greatest of all these was...
