Answer 2

The Treaty of Versailles was signed right after WWI on June 28, 1919. It was a peace treaty that ended the war between the Allies and Germany. This was before Adolf Hitler became the leader of Germany. Everything was good up until he was in control of Germany. He broke many, many things listed in the treaty, and a few years later, Hitler cut off the treaty in 1935. Take another few years and Hitler is now invading Poland, which starts WWII.
