Answer 2

Answer:

Because after the war, many nations were disbelieved about democracy. So, according to them, a better way to prevent another war it was a strong government that had full control.

Explanation:

To the ones who lived the World War I, it seems that democracy was not enough to create a consense between the nations to avoid another conflict. Somehow, they had distrust in democracy. The war was the victory of the barbarian against the reason, according to some governments. Mistrust in political institutions was quickly becoming disillusioned by the worsening economic crisis of 1929 and the growth of conservative political forces. Actually, this distrust in democracy created the perfect situation to increase the political idea that a savior (or a supreme leader) was the answer to social problems.
