Sudetenland

The German occupation in Greece, during the April 1941 and October 1944, destroyed the economy through war compensation. This plundered the country’s resources. When the German Nazi’s withdrew left Greece in 1944, they left the infrastructure in ruins. A widespread famine spread through the urban centres on the First winter of the occupation, starvation killing an estimated amount of 300,000 civilians. This famine was the result of an Allied blockage and the indifference of the local’s needs…

The remilitarization of the Rhineland and the invasion of Czechoslovakia were both significant events that bolstered Hitler’s control over the German army; however, the former was more fundamental to the establishment of Hitler’s control of the German military. The German forces had not seen the Rhineland since the Treaty of Versailles had been established, which had no influence of German diplomats to agree to the terms. This event was so significant because it altered the balance of power in…

large-scale war by controlling Germany, was falling apart. Germany was no longer controllable, politically, economically, and militarily. In fact, the war seemed to be approaching, as there was an increase the Nazi actions with the Ruhr valley, Sudetenland, and much more territorial expansions later on. World War II seemed to begin from a “German Question” incorrectly…

Where are two people with practically identical genes found? In identical twins of course. The most scientifically accurate way of testing the impact that genetics have on a person’s beliefs, actions, personality, and other characteristics is through rearing a set of identical twins in two separate environments. Identical twins have the potential to become exactly the same person because they have almost the exact same genetic makeup. Discovering this was a total breakthrough for scientists…

World War II was a horrible time in history, possibly the worst time for the world in easily recollected memory. The whole world was involved, with people from every country and of every nationality dying. While Germany can be pegged as the main cause and starter of this horrible past, certain things helped fuel the cause of the second World War, such as the Treaty of Versailles, Appeasement and the failure of The League of Nations. The treaty of Versailles was at fault for it’s humiliation…

World War I was known as “A war to end all wars” – HA! If only there were such a thing – to live in perfect harmony is only a dream. World War I didn’t solve any of the initial problems that caused it, which contributed to the outbreak of World War II. Everything afterwards didn’t unfold as expected. The German empire rebuilt itself, Hitler rose as Dictator, and millions of bodies followed. It’s as if World War I was just the opening scene to a gruesome horror film. The things you have to…

For their own protection, Britain and France began to turn to the idea of appeasement. This idea of appeasement is evident when Britain and France allowed Hitler to invade Sudetenland. This was done without any consideration of citizens of the country. Many Americans also believed that the policy of appeasement was the best thing for America could do, seen through the cartoon by Chicago Daily News (Document G). The intended audience…

Many have drawn comparisons between Napoleon Bonaparte and Adolf Hitler, leaders who aggressively expanded and acquired territory during a transition period in their country and created empires that shook the world for a time but eventually failed. However, these two powerful figures differed greatly in considerable aspects including their backgrounds, their rise to power, and their ultimate defeat. Europe during the time of Napoleon Bonaparte showed signs of momentous changes. In 1789, France…

During 1934 a huge event occurred when the president of Germany was announced dead, Hitler becomes president, but his party immediately insisted Hitler in becoming the dictator of Germany without the people’s opinion for another president. Germans were glad that Hitler took over because Germany was a disaster at that time there weren’t any jobs and the people needed help so they trusted in him. Hitler promised that their problems would go away, make Germany a better country, and getting rid of…
