escalated its troop commitment to the conflict.
After the second world war, the occupation of the German and Austrian regions was managed by 4 major powers: France, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and the Soviet Union. The goals of these powers was twofold.
The first was the purging of National Socialist elements from Germany. After the war, thousands of Nazis escaped capture by the allies, with many returning to their lives as civilians. The occupying forces were attempting to ensure that these individuals would not exert major influence, and that Nazism would not rise again in post-war Germany.

The early effects of The Great depression on Mexico were directly felt by the mining sector in which the overall export price index fell by 32% from 1929 to 1932. The real value of Mexican exports fell by 75%, output by 21%, and external terms of trade fell by 50% between 1928 and 1932. Beginning around the 1890s, new industries in the U.S. Southwest—especially mining and agriculture—attracted Mexican migrant laborers. The Mexican Revolution (1910-1920) then increased the flow: war refugees and political exiles fled to the United States to escape the violence.
