Best Answer

Imperialist aspirations by countries that did not have large empires like Britain or France. In Germany in particular there was a general feeling amongst the population that the country had been put under a lot of undue economic pressure after the First World War, that could have been reduced if they had a larger empire. Japan and Italy also wanted larger empires. This inspired the annexation of Austria by Germany, which eventually lead to the Second World War.

Depends which country you are refering too. Most countries tried to stay out of it until it affected them somehow. I.E. The united states.
