nordsb [41]

Answer:The Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to grant territories to Belgium, Czechoslovakia and Poland and to give up all of its colonies. It forced Germany to reduce its military forces to 100,000 men and allowed for the occupation of the Rhineland by the Allied forces. Germany was forced to accept full responsibility for initiating World War I. France demanded huge reparation payments. The defeated powers felt the Treaty was unfair and soon violated the military and financial conditions. When Hitler came into power, he promised to take back the German territories and to demilitarize the Rhineland. The promise of becoming a world power again made the people support him. On September 1, 1939 Hitler invaded Poland. France and Britain declared war on Germany two days later. This was the beginning of World War II.

Why did the United States and the Soviet Union become enemies after World War II?
Bingel [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The United States and the Soviet Union became enemies after World War II because they each wanted to promote their competing political ideologies.

Explanation:

The Cold War was a political, economic, social, military, informative and scientific confrontation initiated after the end of World War II between the Democratic Western bloc led by the United States, and the Communist Eastern bloc led by the Soviet Union.

The reasons for this confrontation were essentially ideological and political. On the one hand, the Soviet Union financed and supported revolutions, guerrillas and socialist governments, while the United States gave open support and propagated destabilizations and coups, especially in Latin America and Africa. In both cases, human rights were seriously violated.

Although these confrontations did not lead to a world war, the seriousness of the economic, political and ideological conflicts marked a significant part of the history of the second half of the 20th century. The two superpowers certainly wished to implant their model of government throughout the planet.

What opposition did President Wilson’s ideas face among Allied nations as well as within the United States?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Wilson outlined fourteen points that included the end of secret diplomacy, armament reductions, freedom of the seas, and the creation of an international organization with representatives of every nation to avoid any conflict escalation.

But the European allied nations were more interested in retribution than peace and Germany was forced to pay unlimited reparations.  While the Fourteen Points were all ignored, Wilson did get approval for a league of nations. However, back in the US, he encountered opposition from isolationist Republicans in Congress who thought the League could limit the country’s autonomy and drag the country into another war.
