"The Italian pretext for invasion came with the Wal Wal incident which took place little more than a year after Mussolini's above-mentioned talks with De Bono. On 23 November 1934 an Anglo-Ethiopian boundary commission, which had been surveying the frontier between British Somaliland and Ethiopia, arrived at Wal Wal, 100 kilometres within Ethiopia. There they were confronted by an Italian force, which had earlier arrived from Somalia. The British members of the commission protested at the Italian presence, but then withdrew to avoid an "international incident". The Ethiopians on the other hand faced the Italians for about a fortnight, until a shot of indeterminate, but probably Italian, origin, precipitated a clash. The Italians responded by despatching an ultimatum to Ethiopia. They demanded 20,000 in damages, a formal apology, a salute to the Italian flag, and the punishment of the Ethiopian troops involved. These terms, which would have constituted recognition of Italian sovereignty over Wal Wal, were considered unacceptable by the Ethiopian Government. Haile Sellassie therefore sought arbitration in accordance with the Ethio-Italian Treaty of 1928. Mussolini rejected this proposal. The Emperor thereupon took the matter to the League of Nations, which spent the next eleven months in fruitless discussion, during which fascist Italy accelerated its preparations for war."

I sorry I don't have a lot of time but for sure, the 1924 democratic convention. Look it up, a clash between McDoo and Smith, the Southern rural protestant dry and the Northern Catholic urban wet liberal. Just google 1924 democratic national convention.

The treaties were initialed at Locarno on 16 October and signed in London on 1 December 1925. The principal agreement guaranteed Germany's frontiers with France and Belgium in return for Germany's full restoration to the international community and the withdrawal of Allied occupation forces from the Rhineland, which would subsequently be demilitarized. Germany agreed to arbitration in the event of disputes with Poland and Czechoslovakia, but without an international guarantee of borders as in the west. The treaties alienated France's ally Poland, which sought a guarantee for its territory, and the USSR, which saw the agreements as an attempt to detach Germany from its 1922 understanding with Moscow. Adolf Hitler's Nazi regime tore up the main treaty in March 1936, sending German troops into the Rhineland.

After WW1, Americans had more leisure time and more money, so they wanted to be entertained. They started going to sports games.

When the Great Depression happened, our country had become poor. More jobs were made and more people looked for a job. People like Louis Armstrong and much more were not afraid about their job. They played music and had their own way of expressing their selves. Then, technology was made and the world learned from us. They followed us and moved on, overtaking our place in history, but we still stand as a nation today.

Events of the 1920s, such as the Scopes Monkey Trial and the passage of Prohibition laws, reflected nation conflicts over social, cultural, and religious values. These events highlighted the tensions between traditional religious beliefs and modern scientific thought, as well as the divide between rural, conservative values and urban, progressive attitudes. The clash of these values spurred debates over issues such as evolution, morality, and individual freedom.
