Papaver means that it is a member of the Poppy genus when translated to English, while somniferum means "sleep-inducing". When translated from Latin to English, it basically means "the poppy that brings you sleep" or the "sleep inducing poppy", which is not that wrong considering that it is used to make opium.

Why do many historians regard the printing press as the most important invention of the past millennium?
xz_007 [3.2K]
Much of history would be lost forever if it wasn't written down. Doing it by hand is tedious and not very consistent. Besides the ink fades off over time with some cases. With the printing press, it's much more clear and consistent to read. Also the printing press allowed for anyone to get access to books. Before it was the elite that could only get access.

Thus, the pay Germany had to pay brought a sense of anger and an increase of nationalism - later Nazism - and hate for those who belittled them. The displeasure in France and US caused distances between some allies, but brought together other few.
