this week's assigned blog is to watch a WW2 movie/documentary or read a WW2 book. blog will be the movie/book summary and whatnot, with 2 pictures.
bruns is doing his WW2 powerpoint for us. i was doing message board posts for a while, so i wasnt paying attention until he started going over the 6 main leaders of WW2.
Benitio Moussilini once hated hitler, then they became friends of sorts, and eventually he was hung and dragged around rome because they itallians hated him. axis.
Winston Churchill, from britain. a well-known statesman with many many quotes. allies/
FDR. allies.
Hideki Tojo- the military dictator of japan. underneath Emperor Hirohito. axis.
Joseph Stalin- russian (soviet union) and communist. signed a pact with germany to be quazi allies, aka not to fight each other and to invade poland together. but since hitler didnt like communists or the soviet union, he decided to attack them, so Stalin switched sides. so axis at first, but then allies for what counts. and even then, we didnt get along with them. almost a set up for the cold war.
Treaty of Versailles. "The treaty of versailles was the cause of all that was to come" in the famous words of some guy with an accent. in any case, the treay ended WW1 for most countries. it did indeed lead to WW2 partly because of the land that was lost.....a bunch of little new countries popped up. cuz ethnic groups wanted their own countries.

bored. are we out yet?
hitler started small and took baby steps to see how far he could go without war breaking out. so people jsut kept giving in to him and he rose to power eventually. and tadah.
so, the land they lost pushed them to want to get their land back. one of hitler's main goals was to reunite all german-speaking people.
