Events that led to the start of WWII
After World War One ended in 1918, Germany had to give up land and was banned from having armed forces.
WWII was started by Germany in an unprovoked attack on Poland.
Britain and France declared war on Germany after Hitler had refused to abort his invasion of Poland.

CASUES OF WORLD WAR 2
CAUSE #1 Hitler’s GOALS
To unite Germany
He wanted to dominate Europe and the World
To achieve any of these aims would involve breaking the Treaty of Versailles and this could lead to war.
CAUSE #2 The aggression of Hitler’s Allies
Italy – Mussolini wanted a Fascist-Roman empire in the Mediterranean and Africa (e.g. Abyssinian invasion in 1935.)
Japan – Japan wanted a Nipponese empire in the Pacific, extending into China and Australia (e.g. Manchurian invasion in 1931)
Germany, Italy and Japan were hostile to Communism (USSR), and this way a cause of war and vice versa

CASUES OF WORLD WAR 2
CAUSE #3
Democratic powers were passive
USA – Isolated France – France was unlikely,
and reluctant, to intervene against Germany, because she could not rely on Britain’s and America’s support.
Britain – Between 1934 and 1937, Britain was sympathetic to German recovery. Between May 1937 and March 1939, Britain appeased Germany.
These powers could have stopped Fascist aggression earlier than 1939
CAUSE #4
The League of Nations failed to keep peace
