Was the Nazi-Soviet Pact successful?
On August 23, 1939, four days after the economic agreement was signed and a little over a week before the beginning of World War II, Ribbentrop and Molotov signed the Nazi-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact. (The pact is also referred to as the German-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact and the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact.) Publicly, this agreement stated that the two countries -- Germany and the Soviet Union -- would not attack each other. If there were ever a problem between the two countries, it was to be handled amicably. The pact was supposed to last for ten years; it lasted for less than two. What was meant by the terms of the pact was that if Germany attacked Poland, then the Soviet Union would not come to its aid. Thus, if Germany went to war against the West (especially France and Great Britain) over Poland, the Soviets were guaranteeing that they would not enter the war; thus not open a second front for Germany. In addition to this agreement, Ribbentrop and Molotov added a secret protocol onto the pact -- a secret addendum whose existence was denied by the Soviets until 1989

Most countries did not allow homosexuals to serve in the military, in fact homosexuality was illegal in most countries during this period.
MORE In Nazi Germany (convicted) homosexuals were required to wear a pink triangle and many were sent to camps.
MORE In Nazi Germany homosexuals were required to wear a pink triangle and many were sent to camps as well as gas chambers. When the war first started the German SS death squads would experiment with the fastest way to kill a large amount of people. The first people they used were from the mental institutions, homosexuals, and disabled. They first tried loading people into the back of an enclosed truck and then hooking up the exhaust from the truck into the back. When this didn't kill them fast enough and when they couldn't do a lot of people they began to think of other faster ways.
_________________________________________
Only homosexuals convicted of a crime (generally homosexual acts) were required to wear a triangle, 90% of homosexuals successfully evaded the Nazis' grasp. None were sent to the gas chambers. There were no people walking around outside of the penal system with a pink triangle akin to the yellow star that Jews were forced to wear.
SS death squads were at (or just behind) the front lines and did not take part in the experiments of mass execution.
The T-4 programme was responsible for these experiments, which involved closing (physically and mentally) disabled people in a room and filling it with exhaust fumes, no person was included for being homosexual. Later this method would be employed in the gas vans for other groups of people.
Where did Mussolini and Hitler first meet?
Hitler traveled to Italy to meet Mussolini at Venice on14 June, 1934. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss thequestion of Austria's independance. This was their first meeting and, upon the urging of his advisors, Hitler traveled to Italy in civilian clothes, wearing a floppy felt hat and a wrinkled raincoat. Mussolini met him in all his military regalia which left Hitler a little embarrassed; vowing to never do that again.

Nazis didn't participate in it, they were causing the of the Jews. They Brutalised the Jews because they wasn't part of Hitler's idea of an Aryan world
_____________________________________
There was no punishment for refusing, one could (and many did) ask for a transfer. At an individual level at the front there would have been peer pressure, as they would need to know that they could count on each other.
There were not punishments, rarely were these orders direct/official.
How long did Adolf Hitler go to school?
Not very long. In Germany the children are given a test to determine if they are to go onto higher education. He didn't go to school much past 15 years old. He tried art school in his late teens and failed. About that time WW1 came along and he enlisted to fight.
Why was the Nazi-Soviet Pact important?
One reason for it being important is that showed the allies that Hitler was not as predictable as they thought he was. Hitler and the Nazi's were heavily anti-communist, therefore the allies counted on Hitler not wanting to create a pact. When the Nazi's did sign the pact, it showed the Allies that Hitler would go around his upmost values in order to increase the Nazi's position.
In addition the fact that the Nazi's now had a pact with the Soviet's meant that the Allies were no longer able to commit towards the Soviet and increase their position of power against the Nazi's.
What happened after the allies attacked Sicily?
After Sicily was attacked by the Allies, it was obvious that Italy was going to be next. By then, much of the Italian Army was either killed or taken prisoner, and an Allied invasion could not be repulsed. Therefore, Mussolini was overthrown and Italy entered into negotiations for surrender. The German Army quickly moved to occupy Italy and prepare for the forthcoming Allied invasion.
Why did Hitler refuse to allow his army to retreat from Stalingrad?
He wouldn't retreat form Stalingrad because he was too over confident and too ckocky.
Population growth is a global issue and cause for concern for the entire human race. Due to the recent trends of population increase around the world, it is important to become educated and aware of the factors that cause populations to grow and the problems that occur due to this growth.
Historically, the population in areas around the world has remained relatively stable. Humans have existed on the planet for centuries, living long enough to reproduce successfully with offspring that survive to do the same for the next generation. While earlier generations of humans generally did not live very long by today's standards, historically speaking, the population stayed fairly stable. Any growth or decrease in population size was the result of natural factors, such as food surplus or shortage, or environmental disruption of some sort. However, over the last couple of centuries there have been drastic increases in population size due to rapid population growth on a global level
- Scientific discoveries led to a variety of technological advances and inventions that significantly impacted people's lives. These developments eventually led to industrialization and made the production of goods more efficient than it had ever been before. This led to improvements in the overall quality of life; people could house and clothe themselves and their families more effectively. Surviving harsh winters without falling victim to death or disease was now possible due to heating systems that allowed people to stay warm, as well as proper garments. Advances in science made it possible for people to take better care of themselves through the practice of basic hygiene and sanitary food storage and refrigeration. As a result of people being healthier, they lived longer, and the population grew.
Why did the nazis kill the Germans?
I assume that we are talking about the Jews, the deformed, the homosexual, and the "uninformed".
Well Adolf Hitler and those of the Nazi party, which he created, were evolutionist at heart and they believed that a by breeding the best and the brightest of the German race they could create a superior race the would rule for 1000 years.
As evolutionist, without God, they were true to their beliefs the humans were no more than highly evolved animals. Those that were defective by birth and by belief were subject to their "scientific" experiments, their interment camps, and ultimately their extermination procedures. Without God anything is justifiable.

Why did the nazi and Japanese treat prisoners and others so inhumanly?
Their belief systems were breeded into them from the time they were young. Brutality and cruelty was nothing new to the Germans. They did the same thing in World War 1. The Japanese had it taught to them from the time they were young too. The Japanese have a strong honor code (which does not have our ideas of honor) they followed. Their code compelled them to treat people badly. Trust me, the USA did do their own method of re-training their ideals, values and honor systems.
