The Holocaust WW2

 Why was Germany hit the hardest during the depression?

The consequences of World War I and the withdrawal of the US Under Secretary were the collapses of the country's economy and increased unemployment. When Hitler became prime minister in January 1933, one-third of the Germans were unemployed, with about 6.1 million unemployed. However, US national income has been cut in half. In response to the industrial crisis, factories closed doors and exports declined. The Great Depression during the same period reduced industrial production by almost half. If Germany didn’t declare war it wouldn’t be in the first place


What did Germany have to agree to by signing the Treaty of Versailles?

Article 231 of the treaty forced Germany to accept full responsibility for starting World War I and pay enormous reparations for Allied war losses. Plus they had to give up territory to Belgium, Czechoslovakia, and Poland, return Alsace and Lorraine to France after they fought during the Franco-Prussian War in 1871. The German government agreed to sign the Treaty of Versailles in June 1919 to realize peace. The enemies of the government used the treaty to claim that they "stuck Germany in the back" by ending the war.


How was NZ affected by the depression?

The impact of the collision cannot be seen immediately in New Zealand. However, export prices began to plummet in 1930 and fell by 45% in 1933. This is cruel to a country that is extremely dependent on agricultural exports. By the late 1930s, urban enterprises and manufacturers had already felt the benefits. As with most parts of the world except Russia, as far as New Zealand is concerned, the Great Depression of the early 1930s was the most shocking economic experience ever. Depression is correctly described as a traumatic experience. At least since the establishment of the colony, New Zealanders have been disappointed by the emergence of a country from which they thought they had fled for the second time.
