Why did France fall so easily to the Nazis?

History
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

in France there was a very strong support of extreme right (this terms is quite broad and does not include so-called nazism) already before the Great War. After 1870 French extreme right became quite powerful and had a stimulating support of intellectuals (Barres, Maurras) who were able to stimulate new generations ...a big part of intellectual elite invited Mussolini´s coup and in 30s there was a hayday of French right. When Hitler came in poweŕ, he had a strong support among French. But French extreme-right was frequently more conservative than modern (nazism).

Explanation:

Jacques Doriot (leader and founder of PPF), writer Pierre Drieu la Rochelle, Robert Brasillach or Céline had many motives to support nazism. They believed in something that could be called "revolution of the body and instinct", the criticized democracy of the IIIrd republic because of its liberalism and intellectualism. They wanted strong leader and politics of body and instinct. But they were never united. In the government there was a division between "marchalistes" (followers of Pétain) and "lavalistes" (folloowers of pro-nazi laval).

We know there are many negative consequences of the Black Death. In what way may it have been a good thing for some groups of pe
Fantom [35]

Answer:

All the conditions were right for an epidemic. Doctors were powerless against infectious disease. People were weakened by war and harvest failures. Germs, the fleas which carried them, and the rats which carried the fleas, flourished in the dirty towns. Busy trade routes carried the plague from one place to another.

The plague arrived at Melcombe Regis in Dorset in June 1348 and it spread throughout the south of England. In 1349 it reached Wales, Ireland and the north of England. By 1350, it had made it to Scotland. Estimates suggest as much as half the population died.

The Black Death affected the way people thought about life in many different ways. Some lived lives perceived to be wild or immoral, others fell into deep despair, whilst many chose to accept their fate.

Historians suggest that the Black Death helped to cause a religious movement in the shape of the Lollards, the end of the feudal system and the Peasants' Revolt.

You may wish to study the facts of Medicine through time, and to compare the Black Death to the Plague of 1665.

Causes of the Black Death

Poor medical knowledge. Medieval doctors did not understand disease, and had limited ability to prevent or cure it. So, when the plague came, doctors were powerless to stop it.

Causes of the Black Death

Poor public health. Medieval towns had no system of drains, sewers or rubbish collections. In such dirty conditions, rats lived and germs could grow.

Causes of the Black Death

Bad harvests. After 1300, there was climate change and harvests failed. Also, during the Hundred Years' War armies used a tactic called 'chevauchée' where soldiers roamed around destroying houses and crops so it is possible that, when the plague hit, people were not as healthy and strong as they could have been.

Causes of the Black Death

Global trade. By the later Middle Ages, merchants were trading world-wide. One route took silk and spices from China to Baghdad, and from there to the Crimea in the Black Sea, where the goods were bought by Italian merchants for sale all over Europe. Many historians believe that the plague originated in China, and followed the trade routes.

Causes of the Black Death

Rats. Most historians believe that the Black Death was caused by strains of the bubonic plague. The plague lived in fleas which lived on black rats. They gave the disease to the rats. When the rats died, the fleas hopped off onto humans.

Causes of the Black Death

Victims of the Black Death from 1349. The Black Death (1348 - 1350) had killed many people which meant there was a shortage of workers and wages went up.

Medieval European medicine was very different from our modern concept of medicine. There was no knowledge of germs, and only relatively basic tools to diagnose and treat illness. Much of medicine was, at best, based on ancient Roman and Greek ideas of the 'humours'. The ideal was to balance specific fluids known as 'black bile', 'yellow bile', blood and phlegm (the fluids made by your ear, nose and throat). To be in a bad or good humour was evidence of how healthy you were! Other doctors would release "evil spirits" by trepanning (drilling a hole in your head to release them). In this context it is not surprising that the causes listed below emerged.

Medieval doctors were not certain what caused the plague, but believed it could be the result of:

the movements of the planets

a punishment from God

bad smells and corrupt air

enemies who had poisoned the wells

staring at a victim

wearing pointed shoes

strangers to villages too were blamed

The spread of the Black Death

The Plague

The bubonic plague was a painful disease, with black buboes or swellings, in the groin and armpits, which lasted up to a week. There was some chance of surviving if the buboes burst. If the buboes burst of their own accord it was a sign that the victim might recover.

In economics, what is the difference between a recession and a depression?
bazaltina [42]

The correct answer is D) Recessions are economic contractions that last 6 months or longer, while depressions are particularly severe economic contractions with no specified time frame.

<em>In economics, the difference between a recession and a depression is that recessions are economic contractions that last 6 months or longer, while depressions are particularly severe economic contractions with no specified time frame.</em>

When a country stops its economic growth, it is said that its economy is in a recession. This means that economy is passing a period of contraction that can last approximately six months or more. A Depression is a more complex situation. This means that the economy of a country not only is not growing but is decreasing. This means that the economy is passing a period of a severe economic contraction that can last more time than a recession. For example, the Great Depression of October 1929, as a consequence of the stock market crash. It ended until 1939.

Why was the battle of saratoga a turning point in the war
ddd [48]
The battle of Saratoga was a turning point in the Revolutionary War because it convinced foreign powers (France, Spain) that Americans had a shot at winning the war; this in turn prompted these foreign powers to aid the Americans in the war. This is important because the Americans likely would not have won the war had it not been for the aid of the French.

Therefore the correct answer is D.

Hope this helps.
