In 1922 Germany and the emerging Soviet Union signed a treaty in Rapallo (in Italy). There were secret clauses in which Russia allowed Germany to station and train troops there. This was important for Germany as the Treaty of Versailles limited the size of the German Army to 100,000 men. Rapallo was a treaty between two shunned 'outcast' nations.
-Emma- The Rapallo Agreement stated that Germany would make an annual payment to Russia in exchange for the training of its armed forces. All of which Germany was forbidden to possess as this meant that they were slowly beginning to re-militarize which violated the Treaty of Versailles.

How did Russia changed their attitudes in 1930s when Hitler began to violate the Versailles Treaty?
The Soviet Union did not wait for Hitler to break the Treaty of Versailles. Ever since the Treaty of Rapallo (1922) Germany had been allowed to maintain a secret army of 100,000 men in the Soviet Union. These troops were ordered to leave in 1933, which they did. From 1935 till 1939 Communists (along with many others) favoured the formation of 'popular front', anti-Fascist coalitions of the kind that came to power in France and Spain. (Previously, most Communists had directed much of their hostility towards Social Democrats).
How did personalities of the Big Three affect the Treaty of Versailles?
OK, let's go through each member of the Big Three in turn... First, Woodrow Wilson, president of USA... He happened to be a bit of an idealist, and this was reflected in his aims for the Treaty of Versailles (think of the 14 points). He wanted to build a stronger world out of the carnage of the war. The other two thought his views were a bit too idealistic. Next, Georges Clemenceau, prime minister of France... His nickname was the tiger. His country had suffered more than any other in the war, as most of the fighting took place on French soil. He and the rest of France had watched their country burn and they wanted revenge. Therefore, he helped make the Treaty harsher than perhaps the other two of the Big Three desired. The last member, David Lloyd George, prime minister of Great Britain, had opinions and aims for the Treaty that can be considered to be 'in the middle' of the others' - but this doesn't mean to say that he wasn't biased. Britain did a lot of trade with Germany and Lloyd George wanted Germany to be able to continue with this. However, Britain had lost a huge number of soldiers and the public clamour for revenge could not be entirely ignored. This affected the Treaty in that it helped to make it harsh, but not as harsh as Clemenceau had wanted. The culmination of all these different aims for the Treaty ended in a result which nobody out of the Big Three were satisfied with - in fact no country at all liked the Treaty. Their aims were all so varied that they could never really reach an appropriate decision.
What were Adolf Hitler's main aims between 1933 to 1939?
hitlers aims when he came to power was to rip the Treaty Of Versailles to shreads, he belived Germany were treaten badly and unfairly in the treaty, he wanted to take back the land that was taken from him, he wanted to expand his army and airforces, he came up with the excuse that he waas solving unemployment and boosting his ecomony to pay back the reparations of the Great War, people felt sorry for him, and Germany, so slowly started giving him back everything he wanted , Britain and France used appeasement which was debting over, but i meant they would 'please' them to prevent any wars hapening again. so basically his aims were to build Germany's empire again, and make sure the people of Germany had a better life. :)
