@I'm Crying your answers are correct.
The specific incident that started World War II was the German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. However, it is important to understand that the outbreak of WWII was not solely caused by a single incident but rather by a complex web of events and factors that culminated in the global conflict.
To understand the background and events leading up to the outbreak of World War II, it is helpful to consider the following key factors:
1. Treaty of Versailles: The harsh terms imposed on Germany after World War I, particularly through the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, created significant economic hardships and resentment amongst the German population, setting the stage for Adolf Hitler's rise to power.
2. Rise of Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany: In the 1930s, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party gained power in Germany. Hitler's aggressive foreign policies aimed to expand German territory and influence, intending to establish a state dominated by the "Aryan race."
3. Appeasement Policy: In an effort to avoid another devastating global conflict, many countries, notably Great Britain and France, pursued a policy of appeasement by granting concessions to Hitler's territorial claims. This approach aimed to maintain peace, but ultimately emboldened Hitler and allowed him to continue his aggressive actions.
4. Annexation of Austria and the Sudetenland: In 1938, Hitler successfully annexed Austria into Nazi Germany, largely unopposed by the international community. The following year, he demanded the annexation of the Sudetenland, a region in Czechoslovakia predominantly inhabited by ethnic Germans.
5. Invasion of Poland: The German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, marked the immediate trigger for the outbreak of World War II. Hitler's forces launched a coordinated offensive from the west, followed by a Soviet invasion from the east. This invasion violated a non-aggression pact between Germany and the Soviet Union, known as the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, which had been signed just a week prior.
In summary, while the German invasion of Poland is the specific incident that began World War II, it is crucial to understand the broader historical context, including the Treaty of Versailles, the rise of Hitler and Nazi Germany, the appeasement policies, and subsequent territorial advancements, to comprehend the complex causes behind this global conflict.
World war two was a combination of the government control in nazi Germany and the shame felt by the Nazis for loosing world war one when the Nazis/ Germans started arming themselves past the Versailles treaty from ww1 and the eventual invasion of other nations and treaties with Nazi dominated Germany and other nation such as Italy
