What problems threatened the peace after world War 1?
aksik [14]

Harsh Treaty of Versailles, massive war debt, and a weak League of Nations

Massive debt in Europe led to depression in Europe and eventually in the US. The depression made economies stop dead in their tracks and caused hyperinflation in Germany as well as weak currency. These conditions also contributed extreme leaders.

A magnetic compass cannot be used to determine position on the open sea.
