Key Battles Of American History - An Unsettled World Germany and the Allies 1918-1930
April 17, 2023 - 17 min
The roots of the Second World War in Europe lie within the First World War. The 1919 Treaty of Versailles formally ended the war between Germany and the western Allies, but the geopolitical situation it created was far from stable. Ten years later, the Great Depression made things even worse. In this episode preview from Key Battles of American History (the first in the World War II in Europe series), James and cohost Sean McIver discuss the unsettled state of Europe between 1918 and 1930 and the gradual fracturing of the uneasy peace that it enjoyed.To continue listening to Key Battles of American History, check out the links below!Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3nCfZZySpotify: https://spoti.fi/3nIwO5cDiscover more episodes of Key Battles of American History:Mexico and Texas (1836-1844): https://apple.co/3mbDEjd / https://spoti.fi/3U6ASIJZachary Taylor’s War (1845-1846): https://apple.co/3nNvNJf / https://spoti.fi/3U71E3CWinfield Scott’s War (1847): https://apple.co/3zwZ25v / https://spoti.fi/3GdgqjBIntroduction to Key Battles of World War II in Europe: https://apple.co/3GfVAA5 / https://spoti.fi/3zwGEK3This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4926576/advertisement
