Before WWI Hitler was a disgruntled failed artist in Vienna and Stalin was a revolutionary and bank robber in Russia. They had never heard of each other.

Before WWII, the two dictators entered into a "non-aggression" pact, along with a number of secret protocols. For two years, until Germany invaded the Soviet Union, they were partners, each invading his neighbors. Germany was much better at it than the Soviet Union, because Stalin had murdered over half his high-ranking, experienced army officers in the Great Purge of the late 30s. The "non-aggression pact" cleared the way for Germany to invade Poland from the west, which Germany did nine days after the pact was signed. This started WWII in Europe. Two weeks later, Russia invaded Poland from the east, and these two jolly members of the little dictator's club split Poland down the middle, along the Vistula River.

Perhaps the only person on earth Stalin trusted at all was Adolph Hitler. He did not trust him completely, but enough to ignore the gathering of the millions of German troops on his border before the German invasion of Russia in June, 1941.

Why was there a battle at Stalingrad during World War 2?

The battle at Stalingrad took place because Hitler had invaded Russia and was defeating the Russian army at every battle as they advanced through Russia. When Hitler ordered an attack on Stalingrad (some historians feel he only did it because he hated Stalin and the city was named after him), Stalin ordered the city held at all costs (and some historians feel that he did that because the city was named after him.) Therefore, two great armies met headon at Stalingrad. And the Russians defeated the Germans in what was to be the turning point for the allies defeat of Germany.

Why did German soldiers not feel defeated after World War 1?

The German's didn't feel defeated, because Hitler promised them for world domination. That he'd fix Germany and make it the capital of the world, and how he promised everyones life to get better. So the soldiers were still thinking that they could win the next war (aka WW2 (World War 2) ) As a people, the Germans did not feel they had been really defeated in WW I - only "humiliated". Hitler played on that.
