<span>The failure in Rhineland Ethiopia League of Nation Fails to stop Hitler Rearming Germany wanted revenge for being humiliated by losing in world war one and the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler wanted to expand Germany because they needed more land and space and he also wanted to have all Germans united. Hitler reoccupying the Rhineland is an example of expansionism. Nations like Britain and France were unprepared for war and so they did not want to create greater conflicts with Germany.

The most Britain, France and Italy did <span>was to form the Stresa Front which issued a protest against Hitler’s rearmament policy but did nothing else.</span>
