1918-1939: What Really Started World War 2?
The period following World War I was marked by unresolved tensions from the Treaty of Versailles and the ineffectiveness of the League of Nations. Economic devastation and a desire for national resurgence fueled the rise of totalitarian regimes in Germany, Italy, and Japan. These powers embarked on aggressive expansionist policies, including German rearmament and territorial claims, Japan's brutal conquests in Asia, and Italy's imperial ambitions in Africa.
