The Treaty of Versailles has further increased the sense of pride and nationalism among the German people, and that eventually led to the worst thing that has happened to the humanity, the World War II. The reason why the Treaty of Versailles had such an effect on the Germans was that it made big damage and sanctions on the German economy, with the people of Germany suffering and living in poverty. The frustrations grew, the people felt that they were stripped of their basic rights, and they saw an enemy that was trying to destroy them in any way possible. Once a political figure came on the scene that used all of those frustrations to gain power, the people saw a savior, and that led to the rise of Nazi Germany and the terrors of World War II.

In his book, A People's History of the United States, Howard Zinn cites examples from US colonial history of the gap between rich and poor in colonial life.
A key study cited by Zinn examined tax registers from Boston, showing that the top 1% of the population held 25% of the wealth in 1687, and that by 1770, the top 1% of property owners in Boston owned 44% of the wealth. The study also noted that the bulk of Boston's population were not property owners. The percentage of adult males in Boston who owned no property doubled between 1687 and 1770 (from 14% to 29%).
Zinn cited additional items, regarding overcrowding of poorhouses (giving a notable example from New York) and a general increase throughout the colonies of the "wandering poor" who had no real means of support. He also cited examples of workers' strikes against employers in the colonies because of low wages.
