Was any of Germany's land taken of in World War 2?
because they felt sorry for them so they didnt take the land off germany in ww2
Why did World War 2 happen right after World War I?
World War 2 happened 20 years after World War 1. World War 2 was started by Adolf Hitler when he invaded Poland. He wanted the land of Poland and to kill off and remove the Poles from Poland. Next he wanted to take over other European countries so he could have their natural resources and space for the Aryan race to live. He also destroyed or rather disregarded the Treaty of Versailles that was created after World War 1 and bankrupted Germany.
Did the Franz Ferdinand assassination set off world war 1?
In the 1880s, Otto von Bismarck, a Germany diplomat, said "The next war will be started by some darn foolish thing in the Balkans." Franz was shot in the Balkans and started the next war. There were many other factors that lead to the war, but the archdukes death was the final straw that set Austria-Hungary off against Serbia and the war began.
What did Germany have to gain from entering World War 1?
WW1 gave them a chance to get more colonies by taking land off other people. they wanted land because they felt they had missed out when everyone was getting africa.
Why were the reparations from World War 1 not get fully paid off before World War 2 was it because Germany couldn't manage them financially or was it because they refused to pay?
The economists told the writers of the Versailles Treaty that Germany simply did not have the money to pay the amount they were demanding. They told them it would take until 1988 for Germany to pay the debt back. It was basically an impossible demand and Germany would never have been able to pay it all back.
