Who was blamed for German defeat in ww1?

After World War I, Germany faced significant blame for its defeat, particularly from the Allies. The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, imposed harsh reparations and territorial losses on Germany, emphasizing the idea that Germany was responsible for the war. This sentiment was further fueled by the "Stab-in-the-back" myth, which suggested that the military had been betrayed by civilians and political leaders, particularly Jews and socialists, leading to widespread resentment and the rise of nationalist sentiments in the country.

Why the Weimar Republic was associated with the German defeat in World War?

The Weimar Republic was associated with Germany's defeat in World War I due to its establishment in the aftermath of the war, when the German military and political leadership sought to distance themselves from the loss. This new democratic government was often viewed as weak and illegitimate, leading to the "stab-in-the-back" myth, which claimed that the military had not truly lost the war but had been betrayed by politicians. The harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles, imposed on the Weimar Republic, further fueled resentment and instability, linking the government to national humiliation and economic hardship. These factors contributed to widespread dissatisfaction and the eventual rise of extremist movements in Germany.


Why was the bayonet considered old-fashioned during world war 1?

Because it was a close-combat weapon, dating back to the 16th century. Even long before WW 1, bayonets were rarely actually used in combat and were mostly popular as general multi-purpose knifes in peacetime and between actual battles. In WW1 the changes in fighting tactics and most of all the use of long-distance guns and machine guns made sure that close-combat fights became even more of a rarity than before and they made the bayonet totally obsolete as a weapon.


Which of these weaknesses of the league was the most important the failure of disarmament the abyssinian crisis the manchurian crisis?

I believe that it was the Manchurian crisis, it showed everyone that a strong minded country could overpower the league. Italy took alot of notice of Manchuria and noticed the league could do nothing. This is why Italy did what they did because they knew the league was powerless. Maybe without the Manchurian crisis, Mussolini would not have acted the way that he did. The Manchurian Crisis (1931) I think shows worldwide that the League of Nation cannot really handle tough job and anything involving major countries. It shows how they are weak and ineffective in dealing such tension. Disarmament Conference (1932), well it showed how LON cannot get involve and interfere with. They basically didn't do anything and because of the failure, countries began re-arming . I think Abyssinian Crisis was the climax and the reason was because we see how two powerful country, Britain and France going behind the back of LON and created the Hoare-Laval pact with Mussolini (give 2/3 of Abyssinia to Italy.) It was leaked and people were horrified and disgusted of how they would back stab. I think its the Abyssinian Crisis :)

What was the stab-in-the-back legend?

It was a conspiracy theory that claimed that the German Army had been 'stabbed in the back' by subversive politicians on the home front, that anti-war activists had caused unrest and weakened the morale of the soldiers. This, according to the conspiracu theory, created the November revolution of 1918 and the devastating armistice. This new government (the Weimar Republic) then accepted the humiliating peace terms of the Treaty of Versailles. This theory was extremely significant because it provided the Germans with a reason to hate the Weimar Republic, and in the longer term it provided Hitler with a chance for power. The stab in the back theory is closely directly linked to the rise right wing political extremism in Germany. Many Germans believed that Germany had been doing well in World War 1. As soon as Germany lost the war though, this stab in the back theory became known and accepted by many Germans and played a key role in stirring up antisemitism.

Why were the Jews blamed for losing World War 1?

The accusation was part of a wider conspiracy theory usually called the 'stab-in-the-back legend' which claimed that Germany had been defeated by subversives on the home front and had not been defeated on the battlefield. Many versions of this conspiracy theory are not specifically anti-Jewish. However, some hardline nationalists combined it with fanciful urban legends about "Judeo-Bolshevism".

What famous myth did Hitler come up with after World War I?

It's called the stab-in-the-back legend in English (in German die Dolchstosslegende). It's a conspiracy theory that claimed that Germany hadn't been defeated in World War 1 but had been stabbed in the back by subversives on the homefront - socialists, Communists, liberals and Jews, so it was said. This conspiracy theory first arose in a slightly different form in early 1918 and wasn't invented by Hitler.
