The Versailles Treaty humiliated the German People. Germany was forced to give up territories and it could not field an army.

When Adolf Hitler rose to power he wanted to restore Germany's former glory. He managed to peacefully acquire Czechoslovakia and Austria. Poland was not that easy so he invaded it. This triggered the Second World War.
