In virtue of the World War Adjusted Compensation Act, U.S. World War I veterans were granted certificates, or bonuses,  for their service in the Armed Forces during the Great War to be redeemed in 1945. Due to the onset of the Depression, in 1932, a large group of veterans out of jobs and desperate to get some money to support their families, marched to Washington D.C. where they camped in order to request the government to honor the bonuses well ahead of their redemption date. The government refused and had U.S. Army units remove the demonstrators by the force of arms, including six tanks, resulting in two World War I veterans killed and over a thousand injured. Four years later the Congress ordered the payment of the certificates nine years before their redemption date.

The heavily punished the Germans for their role in world war 1
Scrat [10]
The French and the British punished Germany by making them sign the Treaty of Versailles. Making Germany go under a lot of debt and had to give away a lot of land. (I think) If I was you id still look it up. Also this Japanese series helped me pass my world history class before: Hetalia. It's silly but historically accurate in their WWI and WWII episodes.

How did Spanish contact with the New World drive the development of capitalism in Europe? (Supporting Details: Encomienda System
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The reason why spanish contact with Incas drove capitalism in Europe is multifold. After being exposed to the riches of the Incas empire, more and more ships were created in Europe (introducing more producers of ships and shipping supplies, etc.) because more and more people wanted to go to the New world themselves and exploit the riches that were available there.

Why were european countries interested in finding a new route to the east indies?
Andru [333]
The previous route was very dangerous and was also expensive to traverse. Early travelers encountered dangers such as war zones and diseases. They also had to cross deserts and mountains to get to their destination. Progress was made when a new route via the sea was discovered. This limited the perils that were once faced.
