How had Europe changed by 1937?

Answer 1

From after the Treaty of Versailles was established to 1937, Europe had still continued to change dramatically. Every country (with the exception of Czechoslovakia) in Eastern Europe had fallen to an authoritarian government. In addition, the Soviet Union, Italy, and Nazi Germany became totalitarian governments and Italy, Nazi Germany, and Spain had fallen to fascism. There was a major retreat from democracy as countries dealt with World War I and the aftermath. Alliances had also changed, but essentially became meaningless on the previous Allied side. Nazi Germany also undid most of the Treaty of Versailles, reoccupied the Rhineland, started remilitarized, and stopped paying war payments in order to prepare for Nazi domination of Europe.
