Answer:
Explanation:
Appeasement was a nightmare for Germany. America Britain and France all wanted their pound of Flesh. There were two problems with this:
1. Germany was not convinced she had lost the war.
2. She was left just as decimated by the war as the three victors -- maybe even more so. For example what few colonies she had. she was stripped of.
In brief, she believed the reparations were an unjust punishment she didn't deserve. The other cause of the War that is important is that Hitler came to power. He had two domestic planks that he enacted.
1. He always kept in mind that when ever he could, he would give back to the German people what was not really needed by the government.
2. He rearmed as stealthily as he could. His rearmament program was a real dark period for American industry. They made millions off what Hitler did to rearm. Germany was IBMs second largest customer.
That was Germany's history, but the Pacific war was just as involved. If you think about commodities (think Oil), and follow that lead, you will realize that America and Japan were playing a cat and mouse game over oil. Pearl Harbor was meant as a stepping stone to the Western Shores of the United States and Americans came to realize it very shortly after it happened. It didn't take long for FDR to declare war. It didn't take long for the American People to appreciate and get behind his position.
