What are the 3 main causes of world war 2?

Answer 1

The main causes of World War II are two in number and may be described briefly as follows. First, unresolved conflicts from World War I led to the renewal of rivalries between leading European nations, principally Germany in opposition to Britain and France, with war nearly inevitable as a result. Second, the powerful ambitions of Hitler and his fellow Nazis sought domination of the continent, and these ambitions were not checked (or snuffed out) by western nations when Nazi Germany was its weakness -- thus leading indirectly to large-scale war years later.

Answer 2

žThe Holocaust (Six million Jews were murdered)

ž Nationalism, racism, and Fascism

žAftershocks from World War 1(such asThe Great Depression, and the failure of The Treaty of Versailles )

žRise of Dictatorships (Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin)

Answer 3

It is important to understand that World War 2 was really caused by the people responsible for World War 1 and due to Hitler's response to his experience during and after the war. It is the fault of the Hungarian/Austrian/German monarchs and aristocrats that World War 1 started. The Serbians/Croations/Bosnians wanted their own self rule and for the Hungarian/Austrian/German monarchs to give them their freedom and to leave them alone. Now were they nice about it? Nooooo. The monarchs had to be hard heads and start a war over the basic issue. Now they blamed it on a Bosnian/Serb for killing one of their Dukes. So they go to war and Private Hitler accidentally gets injured from the Mustard Gas bombs Germany was using against the French. He blames the aristocracy. Then at the end of World War 1 the yahoos create the Treaty of the Versailles which further incenses Hitler and all the Germans. He comes to power legally and disregards the terms of that treaty. He invades Poland in September 1939 and violates the treaty thereby angering the Britons and the French. That is the important detail about the begginning of World War 2. Most people think it started when Pearl Harbor was bombed. Wrong.

Answer 4

There were several factors that contributed to the Second World War. The first one was the Treaty of Versailles ending the war. The terms blamed Germany and gave birth a decade later of the Nazi Party that eventually took control of Germany and it became an aggression Dictatorship.Italy was on the Allied side in the war, but felt cheated by the Treaty. Within a few years, Italy became a fascist dictatorship that became an aggressive one. The Soviet Union was also a possible threat to peace, especially when Stalin took control of that nation. Imperial Japan was a world power and believed that by invading China, its Natural Resources problems could be resolved. A very important factor was that the chief Allies in Europe failed to force Germany to abide in the Treaty. In order to avoid war they established a policy of appeasement with the Axis powers of Germany, Italy and Japan. The League of Nations created for peace did little to help peace. Japan as an example, simply dropped out of it.
