Treaty of Lausanne

The Treaty of Versailles may have ended the war and its suffering but it does not make it part of a just war. A just war means that a war is fair; everything in it is done out of necessity, no innocents are harmed and nether country plays dirty or unfair. The Treaty of Versailles however was not that as it removed a lot from a country who didn’t start the war and left them defenseless and broke. The treaty made sure that Germany had to take the blame for the war as they had to sign a war guilt…

Robert Massimi Mr. Loverchio’s US II class 12/17/14 Was the Treaty of Versailles fair to Germany? The Treaty of Versailles, signed on June 28th, 1919, was signed at the end of World War one. Signed by Germany and the allied forces, this officially ended the state of war, but put Germany in a really rough spot. The treaty was created to cripple Germany so that they could not start a war. Itself, the treaty was a punishment to the German forces, saying that they started the war and they…

In my opinion, the treaty of versai did cause the start if WWII. . • The treatie of versallie is a treatie that was signed in 1919, after World War I, hoping to bring an end to it. • The treatie was supposed to end it, but unluckily, it was the cause for World War II. • It placed a number of limitations on the people of Germany. • There were many settlements in the treaty, one of the main treaty was that Germany had to take blame for the war and make compensations to the members under Dawes…

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 Europe allowing Germany to lead an administration of…

The attitude towards war, one of loyalty towards country and countrymen, nationalism and patriotism prevailed before World War I. This attitude soon changed however, to one of anger, hate and pain towards war. According to ID2424546212 (2008), before men went to war and those that never entered into it, be it at the front or other brutal, face to face fighting, they had the idea that it is noble to fight for one’s country. Anyone that did not share this idea was frowned upon and would be made…

Republic, decidedly an impersonal power, the people of Germany want a personal power, which they find in Adolf Hitler and the Nazi ideology (Kreshaw 11).

The external conditions set the stage for Hitler and for Nazi ideology to gain support…

and ushered in a new era of everlasting peace, all because of one document- the Treaty of Versailles. However, the unforgiving reparations that the Allies imposed on Germany in Article 232 of the treaty contributed to the collapse of the German economy. The economic instability then created an environment that thrust Hitler into power, which ultimately led to World War II. When the Allies and Germany signed the Treaty of Versailles on that June day in 1919, Article 231 (the “War Guilt…

walks of life to sympathize with his ideas. This speech would prove to be a catalyst for peace discussions and the forming of the constitution of the League of Nations. Wilson brought together both warring coalitions to attempt and adopt a treaty, the Treaty of Versailles, attracting them with points directed toward both parties. The Fourteen Points speech is still relevant today, in the continuation of the United Nations, a variation of sorts to the League of Nations. It could also be used…
