The stab-in-the-back legend was a conspriacy theory that claimed that Germany had not been defeated on the battlefield but had been 'stabbed in the back" by subversives (allegedly mainly Jews) on the homefront. It was claimed that these subversives had fomented (encouraged) labour unrest and revolution, which had sabotaged the German war effort. The astonishing thing in World War 1 was that Germany managed to keep fighting for four years plus against an alliance that had vastly more resources and manpower. There was labour unrest in January 1918 but it did not wreck the war effort. By the time of the revolution of November 1918 Germany was militarily and economcially at the end of its tether.

Why did world war l lead to world war ll?

Germany after World War l had many of their rights taken away which of course had made them angry. So Hitler (being stubborn) had 'convinced' the Germans to believe it was all the Jews fault. Of course they listened and believed this idiot and rallied, they did what he said and Hitler had started the Holocaust, killing thousands and thousands of Jews and people who denied his plan or back fired (talked back).
