Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1. Hitler is referencing the Treaty of Versailles, </u><u>the document made at the end of World War I that ended to war between Central and Allied powers. </u>As Germany was on the side of Central Powers and had to admit that they are solely responsible for the start of the war and the damage, they have been punished by the loss of territory.

This foreshadows the military showdown that is about to become World War II.</u> Hitler planned all along to seize the lost territories in the war, which is exactly <u>why World War II included the attacks on Poland, France, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, etc. and the annexation of Austria. </u>
