The Suez and Panama canals are two of the most important canals in the world. They are crucial for the trade and travel through the sea, as they cut the sea routes by thousands of kilometers, which makes it much more easy and cheaper to use them. The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean with the Indian Ocean, thus avoiding to circle around Africa, while the Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and the Pacific, thus avoiding to circle around South America. The one that controls these canals will manage to always get very large wealth because everyone will opt to use them as it much easier, cheaper, safer, and quicker, but in order to use it, everyone needs to pay certain tax. Those taxes are bringing in constant profit from doing pretty much nothing for the countries that control these canals. Also, it brings in a lot of power, as they can block the access of any country to it if they want, thus giving them big power on the global economic scene.

Explanation:
Hi,
The Treaty of Versailles was not a good peace treaty for the future. First of all it wasnt a real peace treaty , Germany didnt have any choice , Germany was forced to sign it . Germany loses 15% of its territory and its colonial empire . Then the army restrictions where very high as the german army couldnt produce aircraft , tanks and artilery and a limit of 100,000 men in the army was set . The war reparations that germany had to pay were too enormous 132 milliards goldmarks (money used by germany and it would be equal to 47 312,1 tons of gold) But only 20,6 milliards were payed because the economic situation in the Weimar's republic was disastrous .
The treaty made Germany poor and the unemployement rose , this treaty made it possible for hitler to raise to power as he promissed to restore the nation's pride and restore the economy and military might.
Hope i was helpfull.
It might have been seen as hypocritical because he claimed that the Soviets did not use armed people and weapons during the uprising and he wanted for Lithuanians to come back to the Soviets voluntarily. He did threaten with weapons and war, but it would be hypocritical to use it since he claimed that they were not aggressive.
