Why did totalitarian states rise after World War one and what did they do

1 answer:

7 0

The reasons that totalitarian states arose after WWI are many. The economy of many countries was shattered by the costly conflict (especially Germany, being forced to pay reparations), causing socialist and communist ideas to flourish. The scars on society left by the war allowed for embittered populations to be swayed by good orators that could play to the crowd's emotions; Hitler liked to appeal to a desire for revenge in the German people, for instance. Also, as mentioned before, new ideas spread during the war, many involving government, often causing factions to fight over a country, with one finally coming on top, usually led by a single, charismatic individual.

Answer:

Explanation:

In general, they argued that if they had a stronger government that would mean that it would threaten the sovereignty of the states and that if they had a more centralized government it would look more like the despotism of their former overlords and they didn't want to end up just like the enemy they fought against.
