We will begin this week by examining the end of WWI and the problems created by the Treaty of Versailles, focusing on the impact it would have on Germany. We will examine the post-WWI uncertainty, as well as a worldwide depression that would have major ramifications across the globe. We will then shift our focus towards the rise of dictators after WWI, with an investigation of how Mussolini, Stalin, & Hitler obtained absolute power in their nations. Towards the end of the week we will closely examine the rise of Hitler & the creation of Nazi Germany. We will look at how the Nazis would take over all aspects of German life. We will also discuss how Hitler's defiance of the Versailles treaty would create the conditions for the bloodiest conflict in human history; the Second World War!
