14 HITLER USED THE JEWS AND COMMUNISTS AS SCAPEGOATS.

15 HITLER USED TERROR. HITLER S SECRET POLICE, THE GESTAPO, WERE ALLOWED TO ARREST ANYONE.

16 HOW DID STALIN MAINTAIN CONTROL? STALIN USED PROPAGANDA TO SPREAD COMMUNIST IDEAS AND TO SHOW HIMSELF AS COMRADE STALIN COMRADE MEANS FELLOW COMMUNIST

24

25 WWII BEGINS

26 TEXT EUROPE MOVED TOWARD WAR 1936: German troops move into the Rhineland (Area on the border of France and Germany). This was a direct violation of the Treaty of Versailles 1936: Hitler and Italian dictator Benito Mussolini signed an alliance, creating the Axis powers.

27 TEXT APPEASEMENT Britain ad France were afraid that if they punished Germany too roughly then they would start another world war. So they decided that appeasement was the correct option. Appeasement- to pacify a situation by accepting another s demands What does appeasement sound like?

28

29 TEXT HITLER TAKING ADVANTAGE In March of 1938 Hitler continues to break the Treaty of Versailles by annexing (taking over) Austria. In September of 1938 Hitler meets with Britain and France and promises that he would not conquer any more land if the French gave him Sudetenland March of Hitler took over the country of Czechoslovakia.

30 APPEASEMENT BE DAMNED! Again Britain and France do nothing. However, they feared that if Germany conquered Poland (a country which border Germany) then they would have to declare war. August of 1939 Hitler meets with the Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin and agrees to not invade Poland. And in return, Soviet Union promises to not attack Germany if they do go to war. September 1, 1939: Hitler invades Poland who didn t see that coming. September 3, 1939: Britain, France, and Soviet Union declare war on Germany and Italy. FINALLY!

31 ALLIED POWERS AXIS POWERS BRITAIN GERMANY FRANCE ITALY USA SOVIET UNION JAPAN
