36. 36 World War II The War Begins

37. Essential Questions 37 What were some of the causes of World War II? World War II

38. Nazi Germany 38 Hitler began attracting followers when he gave speeches that attacked Jews, socialists, liberals, capitalists and communists. Hitler focused on Germany’s offended national pride that came with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles which had been imposed upon them. Germany was forced to take responsibility for the war had agreed to pay a huge reparations bill totaling 32 billion marks. Most Germans bitterly resented these terms, including Hitler. World War II

39. Nazi Germany 39 The Nazi’s learned how to subtly blame Germany’s humiliation on the Jews. Adolf Hitler became the dictator of Germany in 1933 as a member of the Nazi party. World War II

40. Nazi Germany 40 Neville Chamberlain, Prime Minister of Britain, believed that Germany had been treated poorly by the Allies following World War I. He thought that by agreeing to some of Hitler’s demands he might avoid another war in Europe. In February of 1937 Great Britain learned that Germany intended to take control of Austria and Czechoslovakia. Tension in Europe increased when Hitler began demanding that the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia be given to Germany. The Sudetenland had a large number of German-speaking people living in it. World War II

41. Nazi Germany 41 Tension in Europe increased when Hitler began demanding that the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia be given to Germany. The Sudetenland had a large number of German-speaking people living in it. Germany, Britain, France and Italy met in Munich in September, 1938 in an attempt to peacefully resolve the situation. On September 29, 1938, the Munich Agreement was signed which transferred the Sudetenland to Germany. World War II

42. Nazi Germany 42 Most British people approved of the Munich Agreement because it appeared to have prevented a war with Germany. Some politicians, including Winston Churchill, did not support the agreement. In March of 1939 Hitler broke this agreement and took control of all of Czechoslovakia. Neville Chamberlain now realized that Hitler could not be trusted and Britain ended its policy of appeasement. World War II
