Late Start! :-) Mr. Bruns is doing his power point and taking notes.
--The German reaction to the Treaty Versailles
- There was anger throught Germany when the terms were made public.
- The Treaty became known as Diktat- as it was being forced on them and the Germans had no choice but sign it.
- German representatives there knew that they no choice as Germany was incapable of restarting war.
-- The Allies Reaction to Treaty of Verisailles
- At first, the treaty seemed to satisfy the Big Three (US, GB, France)
- Allies believed it was a just peace as it kept Germany weak yet strong enough to stop the spread of commmunism,
- kept France safe
- When Wilson brought the treaty back to the US Senate for ratifcation, the Senate refused to sign it.
- Most countries ultimatley were unhappy with the treaty and the results of WWI. France didnt like it because they thought it should have been tougher on Germany.
--Weimar Republic
- it was a decromacy- allowed poeple to vote
- decrocated government set up in Germany.
- Hilter came into power through this.
- Why did it fail in Germany? - in massive debt, in a depression high inflation- people blamed the government of everything-
