Well, NATO still exists today, as opposed to the Iron Curtain of satellite nations of the Soviet Union.

The purpose of NATO, or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, was an organization created for the purpose of opposing the Soviet Union after WW2 and in the coming years of the Cold War. The similar organization that opposed NATO was the Iron Curtain, or Iron Wall of countries that were essentially "puppet" states set up by the Communists of the Soviet Union. The purpose of this "Iron Curtain" was to be a buffer against the reaches of Democracy and the ideals of the West. NATO opposed Communism and the ideals of the Soviet Union, hence the me versus you scenario between NATO and the Iron Curtain.

the great depression is ..... it caused.....(this could have been prevented by....) this is also liked to ww2 by...

do that for 4 options below for a high grade

Unemployment <span>Mass unemployment (eg Germany) and poverty (eg Japan silk workers) caused great anger = people put in power/accept right-wing, dictatorial governments who told them their country was superior and it was OK for them to take what they wanted by force.   It was the kind of thing they wanted to hear in the circumstances.   25 countries became dictatorships 1929-39.</span>  </span><span> America <span>America called in her loans to Germany .   This caused the collapse of Germany industry = led directly to Hitler’s rise to power.</span>  </span><span> Politics Many leaders know that, when things get bad at home, one way to stay in power is to turn people’s attention to foreign affairs/ direct people’s hatred against other countries/ to have a few successes in foreign policy = more aggressive, nationalistic foreign policy.  </span><span> Empire-building <span>In the atmosphere of cut-throat economic trade, the answer of countries like Japan & Italy was to build an empire – this would secure their supplies of raw materials and natural resources.   Countries like Japan ( Manchuria ), Italy ( Abyssinia ) and Germany (eastern Europe), therefore, set about building an empire = international conflict and tension.</span>  </span><span> Self Interest <span>Countries who were prepared to be philanthropic during the 1920s, could not afford to give way during the 1930s = countries left the League instead (eg Japan over Manchuria ).   Self-interest destroyed the international co-operation ideal of League of Nations .</span>  </span><span> <span>Britain and France </span> <span>were suffering too – that was one reason why they did not send an army to Manchuria or impose sanctions on Italy over Abyssinia (could not afford).   Again, that was a reason they did not begin to rearm against Hitler in the 1930s = appeasement/ failure of League of Nations .</span></span></span>
