After World War 1, the Treaty of Versailles punished Germany by forcing them to pay for war debts to countries such as France and Great Britain. It also forced Germany to limit its military and weakened the German economy. Germany went through many hard times, and at the same time Adolf Hitler saw the perfect time to make an appeal for power in Germany. In an almost desperate attempt to relieve their troubled economy, people turned to the promises that Hitler had proposed. He disobeyed the Versailles Treaty by rearming the German military. Hitler eventually started to demand more from other countries and no one seemed to stop him. Hitler despised the Versailles Treaty and annexed Austria, which was also in violation of the treaty. Hitler began to make claims on Sudetenland, and was given to him as a way to "prevent any further demands" and to "ensure peace between countries". This shows how the treaty from the outcome of World War 1 eventually led to angst between countries and leaders and how World War 2 was brought out of these bitter feelings and harsh situations.
