Answer: Looking around at the magnitude of death and destruction that resulted from the World War I, leaders of the some of the world’s major powers convened a conference in Paris, the outcome of which they hoped would ensure that no such devastation would ever happen again. Unfortunately, the combination of a poorly designed peace treaty and the most severe economic crisis the modern world had ever experienced brought about a deterioration of international relations that would culminate in a war even more calamitous than the one that preceded it.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
While World War II was certainly a geopolitical event, some of its underlying causes have been revealed to be economic.
Reparations imposed on Germany following WWI left the company poorer and economic woes caused resentment amongst its population.
The Great Depression of the 1930s and a collapse in international trade also worsened the economic situation in Europe, allowing Hitler to rise to power on the promise of revitalization.
